 ARTICLE II 

The Notes 

Section 2.01 Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Initial Notes are set forth in the Rule 144A/Regulation S Appendix
attached hereto (the “Appendix”) which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made part of, this Indenture. The Initial Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication with respect thereto shall be substantially in the
form of Exhibit I to the Appendix, which Exhibit I is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made a part of, this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, policies or procedures
of any applicable depositary, agreements to which the Company or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). Each Note shall be dated the date of its
authentication. The terms of the Notes set forth in the Appendix and Exhibit I to the Appendix are part of the terms of this Indenture. 

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile
signature. Notes shall be authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.2 of the Appendix. 
 If an Officer whose signature
is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless. 
 A Note
shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Notes. Unless limited by the terms of
such appointment, 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
any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. 
 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company
shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”).
The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may have 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 appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar
without notice. 
 The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this
Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the
Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company incorporated or organized within the United States of America
may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent in connection with the
Notes.

 Section 2.04 Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. By no later than 10:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on the date on which any principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note is due and payable, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest when so
becoming due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying
Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent
shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 
 Section 2.05 Holder Lists. The Trustee shall
preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least five 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 Holders. 

Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender
of a Note for registration of transfer. When a Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture and
Section 8-401(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the
Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not
to be redeemed) or any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that
the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note in replacement thereof if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the
Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the
Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note. 

Every such replacement Note is an additional Obligation of the Company. 

Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled
by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note. 

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof satisfactory
to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code). 

If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or maturity date money sufficient
to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case 

  
 29 

 
may be, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. Notes or portions thereof the payment for which on the
applicable Redemption Date or maturity date money in the necessary amount has been theretofore deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent in trust for the Holders of such Notes in accordance with the Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or
satisfaction and discharge provisions of Article VIII (provided, however, that if such Notes are to be redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this Indenture) will be considered not to be outstanding. 

Section 2.09 Temporary Notes. Until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall
authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the
Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and deliver them in exchange for temporary Notes. 
 Section 2.10
Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The
Trustee and no one else shall cancel and destroy (subject to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act) all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and deliver a certificate of such destruction
to the Company unless the Company directs the Trustee to deliver canceled Notes to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has redeemed, paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.11 Registered Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the registered Holder of a Note shall
be treated as the owner thereof for all purposes, and no transfer of a Note shall be effective unless entered in the register kept by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.03. 

Section 2.12 CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, etc. The Company in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common
Code” numbers (in each case if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such
notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on
the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall advise the Trustee in writing of any change in any CUSIP numbers, ISINs or “Common Code” numbers applicable to
the Notes. 
 Section 2.13 Issuance of Additional Notes. After the Issue Date, the Company shall be entitled, subject to its
compliance with Section 4.03, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture, which Notes shall have identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance of such Additional Notes, the
issue price of such Additional Notes, the date as of which interest begins to accrue on such Additional Notes and the first interest payment date with respect to such Additional Notes. All the Notes issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a
single class for all purposes of this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. 
 With respect to any
Additional Notes, the Company shall set forth in a resolution of the Board of Directors and an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 

(a) the aggregate principal amount of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture and the provision of
Section 4.03 that the Company is relying on to issue such Additional Notes; and 

  
 30 

 (b) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number of such Additional Notes; provided,
however, that, if any such Additional Notes are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax or federal securities law purposes with any other Notes issued under this Indenture, then such Additional Notes will be identified by a separate CUSIP number or
by no CUSIP number. 
 Section 2.14 Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, the
Company shall pay defaulted interest (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner. The Company may pay the defaulted interest to the persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. The Company
shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee and shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of
defaulted interest to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest which is paid prior to the expiration of the 30-day period set forth in Section 6.01(a)(i) shall be paid to Holders as of the
record date for the interest payment date for which interest has not been paid. 
 ARTICLE III 

Redemption 

Section 3.01 Notices to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, it shall notify the Trustee
in writing of the applicable Redemption Date, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and the paragraph of Section 3.07 pursuant to which the redemption will occur. 

The Company shall give each notice to the Trustee provided for in this Section at least 10 days before the applicable Redemption Date.
Such notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that such redemption shall comply with the conditions herein. 

Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, selection of Notes
for redemption shall be made by the Trustee by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (in any case subject to the rules and procedures of the applicable depositary); provided, however, that no Notes of $2,000 or less
shall be redeemed in part. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 principal amount may be redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of $1,000. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. Notices of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail (or otherwise sent in
accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository) at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the applicable Redemption Date (except that notices of redemption may be sent or mailed more than 60 days before the applicable Redemption Date
in connection with a Legal Defeasance, Covenant Defeasance or discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 8.01) to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address with a copy to the Trustee. The Company may provide in such
notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect thereto may be performed by another Person. Notice of any redemption of the Notes may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the
completion thereof, and any redemption or notice of redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a related transaction. If a redemption or notice of redemption of the Notes
is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, in the Company’s discretion, the applicable Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived), or such redemption may
not occur and the applicable notice of redemption may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived) by the applicable Redemption Date, or by the applicable Redemption Date as so delayed. At the
Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five (5) Business Days
(unless a shorter period shall be agreed to by the Trustee) 

  
 31 

 
before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or sent or caused to be mailed or sent to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the
Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice. 
 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of
Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed or sent, Notes called for redemption become, subject to any conditions precedent set forth in the notice, due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the redemption price stated in the notice.
Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date
to receive interest due on the related interest payment date), and such Notes shall be canceled by the Trustee. Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other Holder.

 Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption Price. By no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the applicable
Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be
redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed in Part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such
Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. Subject to
any conditions precedent set forth in the applicable notice of redemption, Notes called for redemption become due on the applicable Redemption Date. On and after the applicable Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them
called for redemption. 
 Section 3.07 Optional Redemption. (a) At any time and from time to time prior to
September 1, 2022, the Notes may be redeemed at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but
excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, plus the Applicable Premium as of the applicable Redemption Date. 

(b) On and after September 1, 2022, the Notes may be redeemed, at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time and from
time to time, at the redemption prices set forth below. The Notes shall be redeemable at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if
any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, if redeemed during the 12-month
period beginning on September 1 of each of the years indicated below: 
  

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
	 2022
	  	 	103.688	% 
	 2023
	  	 	101.844	% 
	 2024 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 (c) At any time on or prior to September 1, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up
to an aggregate of 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including the principal amount of any Additional Notes) at a redemption price of 107.375% of the principal 

  
 32 

 
amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record
date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, with the Net Cash Proceeds of a public offering of common stock of the Company; provided, however, that at least 60.0% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including the
principal amount of any Additional Notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (other than Notes held, directly or indirectly, by the Company or its Affiliates) and that such redemption shall occur within 90 days
of the date of the closing of such public offering. 
 (d) In connection with any tender offer for the Notes, including a Change of Control
Offer, if Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Company,
purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, all of the Holders will be deemed to have consented to such tender or other offer and accordingly, the Company or such third party shall have the right, upon notice of
redemption sent or mailed not more than 30 days following the date of such purchase, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus,
to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date. 

(e) If the Redemption Date with respect to a Note to be redeemed is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest
payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest on that Note shall be payable to the Person that was, at the close of business on such record date, the Holder of that Note, and no additional interest for the period to which that interest record date
relates shall be payable with respect to that Note. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Covenants 

Section 4.01 Payment of Notes. The Company shall promptly pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on
the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money
sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. 
 Section 4.02 SEC Reports. (a) Whether or
not the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall file with the SEC (subject to the next sentence) and provide the Trustee and Holders with such annual and other reports as
are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable to a U.S. corporation subject to such Sections, such reports to be so filed and provided at the times specified for the filings of such reports under such
Sections (after giving effect to all applicable extensions and cure periods) and containing all the information, audit reports and exhibits required for such reports. If, at any time, the Company is not subject to the periodic reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company shall provide the Trustee and Holders with such reports within the time periods specified in such Exchange Act sections for a registrant that is not an accelerated filer or a large
accelerated filer; provided, however, that 
 (i) no certifications or attestations concerning the financial statements or disclosure
controls and procedures or internal controls that would otherwise be required pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 shall be required (provided further, however, that nothing contained in the terms herein shall otherwise require the Company to
comply with the terms of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 at any time when it would not otherwise be subject to such statute); 

  
 33 

 (ii) the financial statements required of acquired businesses shall be limited to the
financial statements (in whatever form) that the Company receives in connection with the applicable acquisition, whether or not audited; 

(iii) no financial statements of unconsolidated entities shall be required; 

(iv) no financial schedules specified in Regulation S-X under the Securities Act shall be required;

 (v) the Company may limit the information disclosed in such reports in respect of Item 402 of Regulation
S-K under the Securities Act to the information identified in Item 402 that is included other than through incorporation by reference in the Offering Memorandum (which disclosure regarding such types of
information shall be presented in a manner consistent in all material respects with the disclosure so contained in the Offering Memorandum); 

(vi) compliance with the requirements of Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K and Regulation G under the
Securities Act shall not be required (but the Company shall provide a reconciliation to any non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G under the Securities Act); 

(vii) information specified in Rules 3-10 and 3-16 of
Regulation S-X under the Securities Act with respect to Subsidiaries and affiliates shall not be required; and 

(viii) no exhibits pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act (other than in
respect of instruments defining the rights of security holders to the extent such instruments would be required to be filed by paragraph (b)(4) of such Item 601 and material contracts to the extent such contracts would be required to be filed by
paragraph (b)(10) of such Item 601) shall be required; provided, however, that contracts required to be filed only by either or both of paragraph (b)(10)(ii)(A) and paragraph (b)(10)(iii) of such Item 601 shall not be required. 

References in the immediately-preceding clauses (i) through (viii) to statutory or regulatory provisions include any successor provisions. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, so long as the Company is a consolidated Subsidiary of a direct or indirect parent company for
financial reporting purposes, the reports and other information required to be filed, provided or furnished pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 4.02(a) may, at the option of the Company, be those of such parent company, rather than
those of the Company, and, if the Company so elects in any such case, may be filed, provided or furnished by such parent company; provided that financial information of such parent company so filed, provided or furnished include a reasonable
explanation of the material differences (if any) between the information relating to such parent company, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand. 

(b) For so long as any Notes remain outstanding and constitute “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, during any period in which the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company and the Guarantors shall furnish to the Holders and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be
delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
 (c) For so long as the Company (or parent company, as applicable) files
the foregoing reports and other information with the SEC, the Company shall be deemed to have provided to the Trustee and Holders all of the foregoing reports and other information if the Company (or parent company, as

  
 34 

 
applicable) has filed or furnished such reports and other information with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system or any successor electronic filing system and such reports are publicly available.
For the administrative convenience of the Trustee, the Company shall send an electronic copy of each such filing to the Trustee at such e-mail address as the Trustee may specify from time to time in accordance
with the notice provisions of this Indenture; provided, however, that failure to send any such electronic copies will not constitute a Default or Event of Default. 

(d) To the extent that any report or other information is not filed, provided or furnished within the time periods specified in this
Section 4.02 and such report or other information is subsequently filed, provided or furnished, the Company will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations with respect thereto at such time and any Default with respect thereto will be deemed
to have been cured. 
 (e) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the
Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute actual or constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants under this
Indenture (as to which the Trustee is entitled to certificates). The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s compliance with the covenants or with respect to any reports or other
documents filed with the SEC or EDGAR or any website under this Indenture, or participate in any conference calls. 
 Section 4.03
Limitation on Indebtedness. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary 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 unless, on the date of such incurrence and after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio exceeds 2.0 to 1.0 (any Indebtedness
incurred pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) being herein referred to as “Ratio Indebtedness”). 
 (b)
Section 4.03(a) shall not apply to the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Indebtedness”): 

(i) Indebtedness incurred pursuant to any Credit Facility, including the Guarantees thereof by the Guarantors, in an aggregate amount which,
when added to all other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (i) and then outstanding, does not exceed the greater of (x) $4,000.0 million and (y) an amount of Indebtedness that at the time of incurrence does not cause the
Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered to the Trustee, determined on a pro forma basis, to exceed 2.75 to 1.00; provided that for purposes
of determining the amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred under this clause (i), all Indebtedness incurred under this clause (i) shall be treated as Consolidated Senior Secured Indebtedness for purposes of the calculation of the
Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio; 
 (ii) Indebtedness represented by the Notes issued on the Issue Date and the related Notes
Guarantees; 
 (iii) Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary existing on the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness set forth
in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4.03(b)); 
 (iv) Refinancing Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiaries to Refinance any Indebtedness that was incurred as Ratio Indebtedness or as Permitted Indebtedness pursuant to clause (ii), (iii), (iv), (xiii), (xv) or (xvi) of this Section 4.03(b); 

  
 35 

 (v) Indebtedness owing to and held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiaries; provided,
however, that (A) if the Company or the Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Notes Obligations and (B)(1) any subsequent issuance or transfer of
Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being owed to or held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and (2) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is neither the Company nor a
Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by the provisions set forth in this clause (vi); 

(vi) Hedging Obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business and not for speculative purposes and, to the extent constituting
Indebtedness, Banking Product Obligations; 
 (vii) Guarantees of the Notes and Guarantees of Indebtedness that was incurred as Ratio
Indebtedness or as Permitted Indebtedness pursuant to clause (iv) (to the extent the Refinanced Indebtedness was so guaranteed), (vi), (viii), (ix), (x), (xii), (xiv), (xv) or (xvi) of this Section 4.03(b); provided, however, that if the
Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or a Notes Guarantee, then such Guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Notes Guarantee to the same extent as the Indebtedness
guaranteed; 
 (viii) Indebtedness constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit issued in the ordinary course
of business, including letters of credit in respect of workers’ compensation claims, health, disability or other employee benefits or property, casualty or liability insurance or self-insurance, or other Indebtedness with respect to obligations
in the nature of reimbursement obligations regarding workers’ compensation claims; 
 (ix) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case incurred in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary; 

(x) obligations in respect of performance, bid, appeal, surety and similar bonds and completion guarantees provided by the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;

(xii) Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, Synthetic Leases, 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 construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used or useful in a Related Business (where, in the case of a purchase, such purchase may be
effected either directly or through the purchase of the Capital Stock of the Person owning such property, plant or equipment), and any Indebtedness incurred to Refinance such Indebtedness, in an aggregate amount which, when added to all other
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xii) and then outstanding, does not exceed the greater of (x) $50.0 million and (y) 1.0% of Consolidated Total Assets; 

(xiii) (x) Acquired Indebtedness or (y) Indebtedness incurred to finance a merger or an acquisition; provided, however, that, in each

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03, 

(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Indebtedness set forth in
Section 4.03(b) or is entitled to be incurred as Ratio Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a), the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this
Section 4.03, and such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) shall be treated as having been incurred pursuant to the provisions set forth in only one of such clauses described in Section 4.03(b) or pursuant to
Section 4.03(a); provided, however, that all Indebtedness outstanding under the PRA Credit Facilities on the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred as Permitted Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(i) and the Notes issued on
the Issue Date shall be deemed to have been incurred as Permitted Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(ii); 
 (ii) the Company
shall be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness set forth in Sections 4.03(a) and 4.03(b); and 

(iii) any Permitted Indebtedness originally classified as incurred pursuant to the provisions set forth in one of the clauses of
Section 4.03(b) (other than pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 4.03(b)) may later be reclassified by the Company such that it shall be deemed to have been incurred as Ratio Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or as
Permitted Indebtedness pursuant to another clause of Section 4.03(b), as applicable, to the extent that such reclassified Indebtedness could be incurred pursuant to such Section or clause at the time of such reclassification. 

(d) Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness with the
same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in interest rates or in the exchange rate of currencies shall not be deemed to be
an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Indenture. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be
included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided, however, that the incurrence of the Indebtedness underlying such Guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was subject to and in compliance with this Section 4.03.

  
 37 

 (e) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar restriction on the
incurrence of Indebtedness where the Indebtedness incurred is denominated in a different currency, the amount of such Indebtedness shall be the U.S. Dollar Equivalent determined on the date of the incurrence of such Indebtedness; provided,
however, that if any such Indebtedness denominated in a different currency is subject to a currency agreement with respect to U.S. dollars covering all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on such Indebtedness, the amount of such
Indebtedness expressed in U.S. dollars shall be as provided in such currency agreement. The maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not be deemed to be
exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, solely as a result of fluctuations in interest rates or the exchange rate of currencies. 

Section 4.04 Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
directly or indirectly, 
 (i) declare or pay any dividends or make any other distributions of any sort in respect of its Capital Stock

Stock (other than Disqualified Stock), (B) dividends or distributions payable solely to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and (C) pro rata dividends or other distributions made by a Subsidiary that is not a Wholly-Owned Restricted
Subsidiary to minority shareholders (or owners of minority interests in the case of a Subsidiary that is an entity other than a corporation)); 

(ii) purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or make any other acquisition or retirement for value of any Capital Stock of the Company held by
any Person (other than by a Restricted Subsidiary) or of any Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary held by any Affiliate of the Company (other than by a Restricted Subsidiary), including in connection with any merger or consolidation and
including the exercise of any option to exchange any Capital Stock (other than into Capital Stock of the Company that is not Disqualified Stock); 

(iii) purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or make any other acquisition or retirement for value, prior to scheduled maturity, scheduled
repayment, principal installment or scheduled sinking fund payment of any Subordinated Obligations of the Company or any Guarantor (other than (A) from the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or (B) the purchase, repurchase, redemption,
defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Obligations purchased in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of such purchase,
repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement); or 
 (iv) make any Investment (other than a Permitted Investment)
in any Person, (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 4.04(a) being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), 

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

(1) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result therefrom); 

(2) the Company is entitled to incur an additional $1.00 of Ratio Indebtedness pursuant to Section 4.03(a); 

  
 38 

 (3) the Funded Net Debt Ratio would not exceed 4.0 to 1.0 after giving pro forma effect to
such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments since the end of the fiscal quarter used in determining the Funded Net Debt Ratio; and 

(4) the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments since the Issue Date (other than those referred to
clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) through (xii) of Section 4.04(b)) would not exceed the sum of (without duplication): 
 (A) 50.0% of
the Consolidated Net Income accrued during the period (treated as one accounting period) from July 1, 2020 to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending immediately prior to the date of such Restricted Payment (or, in case such
Consolidated Net Income shall be a deficit, minus 100.0% of such deficit); plus 
 (B) 100.0% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds or Fair
Market Value of any asset (other than cash) received by the Company either (x) from the issuance or sale of its Qualified Capital Stock subsequent to the Issue Date or (y) as a contribution in respect of its Qualified Capital Stock from
its shareholders subsequent to the Issue Date, but excluding in each case any Net Cash Proceeds that are used to redeem Notes in accordance with Section 3.07(c); plus 

(C) the amount by which the principal amount of Indebtedness of the Company (other than Indebtedness owing to a Subsidiary) is reduced upon
the conversion or exchange subsequent to the Issue Date of any Indebtedness of the Company converted or exchanged for Qualified Capital Stock of the Company (less the amount of any cash, or the fair value of any other property, distributed by the
Company upon such conversion or exchange); provided, however, that the foregoing amount shall not exceed the gross proceeds (prior to fees and transaction expenses) received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from the sale of such
Indebtedness (excluding such gross proceeds from sales to a Subsidiary of the Company or to an employee stock ownership or benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries); plus 

(D) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of cash and the Fair Market Value of any asset (other than cash) received by

repurchases, repayments, liquidations or redemptions of such Investments by such Person, proceeds realized on the sale of such Investment and proceeds representing the return of capital, and (y) in the event that the Company redesignates an
Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary, the portion (proportionate to the Company’s equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value of the net assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted
Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that the foregoing sum shall not exceed, in the case of any such Person or Unrestricted Subsidiary, the amount of Investments (excluding Permitted Investments) previously made by
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Person or Unrestricted Subsidiary; plus 
 (E) $150.0 million. 

(b) The foregoing provisions shall not prohibit: 

(i) any Restricted Payment made out of the Net Cash Proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, or made in exchange for, Qualified
Capital Stock of the Company or a substantially concurrent cash capital contribution received by the Company from its shareholders with respect to its Qualified Capital Stock; provided, however, that the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale or such cash
capital contribution (to the extent so used for such Restricted Payment) shall be excluded in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments for purposes of Section 4.04(a)(iv)(4)(B); 

  
 39 

 (ii) any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement
for value of Subordinated Obligations of the Company or of a Guarantor made in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent incurrence of, Indebtedness of such Person which is permitted to be incurred pursuant to
Section 4.03; 
 (iii) the payment of any dividend, distribution or redemption of any Capital Stock or Subordinated Obligations within
60 days after the date of declaration thereof or call for redemption if, at such date of declaration or call for redemption, such payment or redemption was permitted by Section 4.04(a) (the declaration of such payment shall be deemed a
Restricted Payment under Section 4.04(a) as of the date of declaration and the payment itself shall be deemed to have been paid on such date of declaration and shall not also be deemed a Restricted Payment under Section 4.04(a)); provided,
however, that any Restricted Payment made in reliance on the provisions set forth in this clause (iii) shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(iv)(4) only once; 

(iv) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of Capital Stock of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries from officers, former officers, employees, former employees, directors or former directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or permitted transferees of such officers, former officers, employees, former
employees, directors or former directors), pursuant to the terms of agreements (including employment agreements) or plans (or amendments thereto) approved by the Board of Directors under which such individuals purchase or sell or are granted, or are
granted the option to purchase or sell, shares of such Capital Stock; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payments (excluding amounts representing cancellation of Indebtedness) shall not exceed $15.0 million in any
calendar year (with unused amounts in any calendar year being carried over to the succeeding calendar years subject to a maximum of $30.0 million in any calendar year); 

(v) the declaration and payments of dividends on Disqualified Stock issued pursuant to Section 4.03; 

(vi) repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon exercise of stock options if such Capital Stock represents a portion of the exercise
price of such options; 
 (vii) cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares in connection with the exercise of warrants,
options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Capital Stock of the Company; provided, however, that any such cash payment shall not be for the purpose of evading the limitation of this Section 4.04 (as determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors); 
 (viii) in the event of a Change of Control (or other similar event described in the applicable
agreements governing the applicable Subordinated Obligations as a “change of control”), and if no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the payment, purchase, redemption, defeasance, discharge, cash-collateralization or other
acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Obligations of the Company or any Guarantor, in each case, at a purchase price not greater than 101% of the principal amount of such Subordinated Obligations, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon;
provided, however, that prior to such payment, purchase, redemption, defeasance, discharge, cash-collateralization or other acquisition or retirement, the Company (or a third party to the extent permitted by this Indenture) has made a Change of
Control Offer with respect to the Notes as a result of such Change of Control and has repurchased (or deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to repurchase) all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn in connection with such Change of
Control Offer; 

  
 40 

 (ix) payments of intercompany subordinated Permitted Indebtedness, the incurrence of which
was permitted by Section 4.03(b)(vi); provided, however, with respect to payments other than to the Company or a Guarantor, that no Default has occurred and is continuing or would otherwise result therefrom; 

(x) other Restricted Payments in an amount which, when taken together with all other Restricted Payments made pursuant to this clause (x),
does not exceed $200.0 million so long as the Funded Net Debt Ratio would not exceed 3.0 to 1.0 after giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payments and all other Restricted Payments since the end of the fiscal quarter used in determining
the Funded Net Debt Ratio; 
 (xi) (A) Permitted Bond Hedge Transactions and Permitted Warrant Transactions in connection with the issuance
of Permitted Convertible Notes and satisfaction of the Company’s obligations to pay premiums upon entering into such transactions; (B) payments in connection therewith and delivery of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock upon net
share settlement thereof (together with cash in lieu of fractional shares) or set-off, netting and/or payment of an early termination payment or similar payment thereunder upon an early termination thereof, in
each case made with the Company’s Capital Stock; (C) issuances of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock and cash payments made in lieu of fractional shares in connection with Permitted Warrant Transactions; (D) cash payments to
satisfy obligations in respect of Permitted Bond Hedge Transactions and Permitted Warrant Transactions solely to the extent the Company does not have the option of satisfying such payment obligations through the issuance of the Company’s
Capital Stock or is otherwise required to satisfy such payment obligations in cash, it being understood and agreed that any payment made in cash in connection with Permitted Bond Hedge Transactions and Permitted Warrant Transactions by set-off, netting and/or payment of an early termination payment or similar payment thereunder upon any early termination thereof, in each case, after using commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy such obligations
(or the portion thereof remaining after giving effect to any netting or set-off against termination or similar payments under an applicable Permitted Bond Hedge Transaction or Permitted Warrant Transaction) by
delivery of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock shall be deemed to be a payment obligation required to be satisfied in cash, in an aggregate amount pursuant to this clause (D) not to exceed $55.0 million; (E) any shares
received by the Company of its Capital Stock and/or cash on account of settlements and/or terminations of any Permitted Bond Hedge Transactions or Permitted Warrant Transactions; and (F) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have

 (xii) cash dividends and distributions by the Company to holders of its Capital Stock in an aggregate amount not to exceed
$30.0 million in any fiscal year. 
 (c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the Fair Market Value on the
date of the Restricted Payment of the assets (other than cash) proposed to be transferred. In the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the exceptions set forth in clauses (i) through (xii) of
Section 4.04(b) or is permitted to be made by Section 4.04(a), the Company, in its sole discretion, may divide and classify such Restricted Payment in any manner that complies with this Section 4.04. 

Section 4.05 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 

  
 41 

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

(b) make loans or advances to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiaries, or 

(c) transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiaries, 

except, in each case, for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 

(i) this Indenture and the Notes; 

(ii) agreements existing on the Issue Date to the extent and in the manner such agreements are in effect on the Issue Date, including the PRA
Credit Facilities; 
 (iii) applicable law; 

(iv) any instrument governing Acquired Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary as in
effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness 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, however, that, in the case of an instrument governing Acquired Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be
incurred; 
 (v) customary non-assignment provisions in leases entered into in the ordinary course
of business and consistent with past practices; 
 (vi) purchase money obligations for property or assets acquired in the ordinary course
of business that impose restrictions of the nature set forth in clause (c) of this Section 4.05 on the property or assets so acquired; 

(vii) any encumbrance or restriction in an agreement effecting a Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant to an agreement referred to in
clause (i), (ii) or (iv) of this Section 4.05 or this clause (vii) or contained in any amendment to an agreement enumerated in such clause (i), (ii) or (iv) or this clause (vii); provided, however, that the encumbrances and
restrictions contained in any such refinancing agreement or amendment are not materially less favorable to the Company (as determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable and good faith judgment) than encumbrances and restrictions contained
in such predecessor agreements; 
 (viii) in the case of clause (c) of this Section 4.05, restrictions contained in security
agreements or mortgages securing Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such restrictions restrict the transfer of the property subject to the Liens created thereby, or the Capital Stock of the Person whose assets consist, directly or
indirectly, primarily of the property securing such Indebtedness; provided, however, that such Liens were otherwise permitted to be incurred under this Indenture; 

(ix) restrictions with respect to any Investment imposed in connection with the making of such Investment; 

  
 42 

 (x) any restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary imposed pursuant to an
agreement entered into for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary pending the closing of such sale or disposition; or 

(xi) assignment provisions and provisions with respect to the distribution of assets or property or joint venture or partnership interests in
joint venture or partnership agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business that are customary for such agreements; provided, however, that such provisions in the aggregate, in the opinion of the management
of the Company, do not materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to make principal or interest payments on the Notes. 

Section 4.06 Limitation on Asset Sales. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
 (i) the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time
of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of, or Restricted Subsidiary Equity Interests issued, in such Asset Sale; and 

(ii) at least 75.0% of the consideration therefor received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash
Equivalents; provided, however, that, for purposes of the provisions set forth in this clause (ii) and for no other purpose, the amount of (1) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent
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 Guarantee thereof) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant
to a customary novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability (or are otherwise extinguished in connection with the transactions relating to such Asset Sale), (2) 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 any Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days of receipt, to the extent of the cash or Cash
Equivalents received and (3) the Fair Market Value of any property or assets received (including any Capital Stock of any Person that shall be a Restricted Subsidiary following receipt thereof) that are used or useful in any Related Business,
in each case shall be deemed to be cash. 
 Within 365 days after the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net Cash Proceeds, at its option: 
 (1) to prepay or otherwise pay or repay,
purchase, redeem, defease, discharge, cash-collateralize or otherwise acquire or retire (A) Secured Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor (and, if such Indebtedness is under a revolving credit facility, to correspondingly reduce
commitments with respect thereto), (B) Senior Indebtedness (other than Secured Indebtedness) of the Company or any Guarantor (and, if such Indebtedness is under a revolving credit facility, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect
thereto); provided, however, that if any such Senior Indebtedness described in this clause (B) other than the Notes are repaid with such Net Cash Proceeds, the Company shall equally and ratably reduce the Notes through open-market purchases
(provided, however, that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof), by redeeming Notes in accordance with Section 3.07 or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer)
to all holders of the Notes to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, the pro rata principal amount of the Notes or (C) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
Guarantor, in the case of each of clause (A), (B) and (C), other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or its Affiliates; 

  
 43 

 (2) to make an Investment in any one or more businesses (provided, however, that if such
Investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary if it is not already a Restricted Subsidiary), assets, or property or capital expenditures (including
refurbishments), in each case used or useful in a Related Business; or 
 (3) to make a combination of any prepayments or other payments or
repayments, purchases, redemptions, defeasances, discharges, cash collateralizations or other acquisitions or retirements and any Investments permitted by the foregoing clauses (1) and (2). 

In the case of an Investment contemplated by clause (2) above or clause (3) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a
permitted application of the Net Cash Proceeds from the date of such commitment; provided, however, that in the event such binding commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net Cash Proceeds are so applied, the Company or
Restricted Subsidiary enters into another binding commitment (a “Second Commitment”) to make an Investment permitted by such clause (2) or clause (3) within nine months of such cancellation or termination of the prior
binding commitment; provided further, however, that the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may only enter into a Second Commitment under the foregoing provision one time with respect to each Asset Sale. 

(b) If, on the 366th day after receipt by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds with respect to an Asset Sale, any such
Net Cash Proceeds have not been applied as permitted by Section 4.06(a) (such Net Cash Proceeds received and not so applied being “Excess Proceeds” and the date of such 366th day being an “Asset Sale Offer Trigger
Date”), the Company or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries shall make an offer to all Holders and, if required or permitted by the terms of any Senior Indebtedness, to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, to purchase (the “Asset
Sale Offer”), on a date not less than 30 nor more than 60 days following the applicable Asset Sale Offer Trigger Date, from all Holders and holders of such Senior Indebtedness on a pro rata basis (or as nearly pro rata as practicable) based
on the accreted value or principal amount, as applicable, of the Notes and such Senior Indebtedness tendered pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer, that amount of Notes and such Senior Indebtedness equal to the applicable Excess Proceeds (minus any
federal, state, provincial, foreign and local taxes payable as a result of the transfer or deemed transfer of funds from the entity that made the Asset Sale to the entity that is making such Asset Sale Offer) at a price equal to 100.0% of the
principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase (or, in respect of such Senior Indebtedness, the price provided for by the terms of such Senior Indebtedness);
provided, however, that if at any time any non-cash consideration received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, in connection with any Asset Sale is converted into or sold or
otherwise disposed of for cash (other than interest received with respect to any such non-cash consideration), then, solely for purposes of the definition of Net Cash Proceeds, such conversion or disposition
shall be deemed to constitute an Asset Sale, and the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.06 governing the application of the Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale. If Holders do not
tender Notes in an aggregate principal amount at least equal to the applicable Excess Proceeds for purchase in connection with any Asset Sale Offer, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries may use the portion of the Excess Proceeds not used to
purchase Notes for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the Excess Proceeds shall be reduced by the amount of the Asset Sale Offer. Notwithstanding the occurrence of an Asset Sale Offer Trigger
Date, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries may defer the Asset Sale Offer until there is an aggregate unutilized Excess Proceeds of at least $15.0 million resulting from one or more Asset Sales (at which time, the entire unutilized
Excess Proceeds, and not just the amount in excess of $15.0 million, shall be applied as required pursuant to this Section 4.06). The Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries may satisfy the obligations set forth in this
Section 4.06(b) with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds prior to an applicable Asset Sale Offer Trigger Date. 

  
 44 

 If the date on which a Note is purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is on or after an
interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest on that Note shall be paid to the Person that was, at the close of business on such record date, the Holder of that Note, and no additional
interest for the period to which that interest record date relates shall be payable, with respect to that Note, to the Person who tendered that Note pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 

(c) Each Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with applicable procedures of the Depository) to the record Holders
as shown on the register of Holders within 30 days following the Asset Sale Offer Trigger Date, with a copy to the Trustee, and shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. Upon receiving notice of the Asset Sale Offer, Holders may
elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in amounts equal to $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof in exchange for cash. To the extent Holders properly tender Notes in an amount exceeding the Excess Proceeds, the tendered
Notes shall be purchased on a pro rata basis (or as nearly pro rata as practicable) based on the amount of Notes tendered. An Asset Sale Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days or such longer period as may be required by law. 

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 such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with the requirements of this Section 4.06, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.06 by virtue thereof. 

Section 4.07 Limitation on Affiliate Transactions. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary
to, enter into, or be a party to, any transaction or series of related transactions with any Affiliate of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) (each, an “Affiliate
Transaction”), except for Affiliate Transactions: 
 (i) pursuant to terms that, taken as a whole, are not materially less
favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate; and 

(ii) if involving aggregate consideration in an amount equal to at least $25.0 million, then the Company shall have delivered to the
Trustee a board resolution adopted by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with
Section 4.07(a)(i). 
 (b) Section 4.07(a) shall not apply to the following: 

(i) any employment, consulting, service, indemnification, termination or severance agreement or compensation plan or arrangement entered into
by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and the transactions customarily provided for by any such agreement, plan or arrangement;

restated, supplemented or replaced so long as the terms of such agreement as modified, amended, amended and restated, supplemented or replaced, taken as a whole, are not materially more disadvantageous to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, than the terms of such agreement as in effect on the Issue Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, and (y) any transaction contemplated by any such agreement; 

(vi) loans or advances to employees or consultants in the ordinary course of business or approved by the Board of Directors, but in any event

(vii) the issuance or sale of any Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company; 

(viii) transactions with customers, clients, joint-venture partners, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in
the ordinary course of business, which are fair to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the reasonable determination of the Company or are on terms not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to the Company and the Restricted
Subsidiaries than might reasonably have been obtained from a non-Affiliate; 
 (ix) transactions
with a Person that is an Affiliate of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary solely because the Company directly or indirectly owns Equity Interests in, or controls, such Affiliate, other than transactions with Unrestricted Subsidiaries; 

(x) the making of any Restricted Payment not prohibited by Section 4.04 and any Permitted Investments (other than a Permitted Investment

(xii) any transaction with an Affiliate where the only consideration paid by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary consists of Equity
Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company. 
 Section 4.08 Limitation on Line of Business. The Company shall not,
and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than Related Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 

Section 4.09 Change of Control. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.09, upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently mailed or sent a notice of redemption with respect to all the outstanding Notes pursuant to Sections 3.03 and 3.07 (which notice and redemption are not subject to conditions other than
consummation of the applicable Change of 

  
 46 

 
Control), each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to a minimum denomination of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer set forth below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Holder’s Notes to be purchased plus accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently mailed or sent a notice
of redemption with respect to all the outstanding Notes pursuant to Sections 3.03 and 3.07 (which notice and redemption are not subject to conditions other than consummation of the applicable Change of Control), the Company shall mail (or
otherwise send in accordance with applicable procedures of the Depository) a notice to each Holder (with a copy to the Trustee) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the
date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or sent (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by this
Indenture and set forth in such notice. If the Change of Control Payment Date with respect to a Note is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest on that Note shall be
paid to the Person that was, at the close of business on such record date, the Holder of that Note, and the Change of Control Payment with respect to that Note for the period to which that interest record date relates shall not include accrued and
unpaid interest thereon. 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 such 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 requirements of this Section 4.09, the Company shall comply
with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.09 by virtue thereof. 

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof
properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (iii) deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail (or, if applicable,
transmit by wire transfer) to each Holder of Notes so 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 new Note equal in principal
amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, however, that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple 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. 
 (c) The Company shall not
be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (i) 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 validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) the Company has previously or concurrently mailed or sent a notice of redemption with respect
to all the outstanding Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 and 3.07 (which notice and redemption are not subject to conditions other than consummation of such Change of Control). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control
Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for such Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. In the case of such a conditional
Change of Control Offer, in the Company’s discretion, the applicable Change of Control Payment Date may be delayed until such time as the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred, or the repurchase of Notes pursuant to such Change of
Control Offer may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that such Change of Control shall not have occurred by the Change of Control Payment Date or by the Change of Control Payment Date as so delayed. 

  
 47 

 (d) The provisions of this Indenture relating to the Company’s obligation to make a
Change of Control Offer may be waived or modified with the written consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control. 

Section 4.10 Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create,
incur, assume, permit or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or to become effective any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of a Subsidiary), whether owned on the Issue Date or thereafter
acquired, securing any Indebtedness (the “Initial Lien”) without effectively providing that the Notes, or in the case of an Initial Lien on any property or assets of any Guarantor, the Notes Guarantee of such Guarantor, shall be
secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) the obligations so secured for so long as such obligations are so secured. 
 Any such Lien
thereby created in favor of the Notes or any Notes Guarantee will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the release and discharge of each Initial Lien to which it relates, (ii) in the case of any such Lien
in favor of any such Notes Guarantee, upon the termination and discharge of such Notes Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or (iii) any sale, exchange or transfer otherwise not prohibited by this Indenture to any Person
other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the property or assets secured by such Initial Lien. 
 With respect to any Lien
securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The “Increased Amount”
of any Indebtedness means any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms,
accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in interest rates or in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property
securing Indebtedness. 
 Section 4.11 Additional Guarantors. If any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a
Guarantor issues a Guarantee of any Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor, then, within 60 days, the Company shall cause such Restricted Subsidiary to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture providing for such Restricted
Subsidiary’s Notes Guarantee on the terms set forth in Article X; provided, however, that if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or any Guarantor’s Notes Guarantee, any such
Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinate in right of payment to such Notes Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantor’s
Notes Guarantee; and provided further, that such provision shall not be applicable to any Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not incurred in contemplation of such Person
becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. 
 Thereafter, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture until
released from its Notes Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture. 
 The Company may, at its sole option, cause any Restricted Subsidiary
to become a Guarantor by executing and delivering a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for such Notes Guarantee. 

  
 48 

 Section 4.12 Limitation on Investment Company Status. The Company and its
Subsidiaries shall not take any action, or otherwise permit to exist any circumstances, that would require the Company to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

Section 4.13 Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall execute and deliver such further
instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture. 

Section 4.14 Suspension of Certain Covenants. 

(a) If on any date following the Issue Date (1) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating and (2) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then beginning on that day and continuing at all times thereafter and subject to the provisions of the second succeeding paragraph of this covenant, the covenants specifically listed under the following
sections in this Indenture (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”) will be suspended: 
 (i) Section 4.03; 

(ii) Section 4.04; 
 (iii)
Section 4.05; 
 (iv) Section 4.06; 

(v) Section 4.07; 
 (vi)
Section 4.11 (but only with respect to any Person that is initially required to become a Guarantor during the Suspension Period (as defined below)); and 

(vii) Section 5.01(a)(iv). 

(b) During any period that the foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Board of Directors may not designate any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” 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 and including any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligations arising during the Suspension Period not incurred in contemplation of a reversion of
the Suspended Covenants) will not give rise to a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event that the covenants have been suspended and on any subsequent date the Notes no longer have an Investment Grade Rating, the foregoing covenants will be reinstituted as of and from the date of such rating decline (any such date, a
“Reversion Date”). The period of time between the suspension of covenants as set forth above and the Reversion Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.” All Indebtedness incurred (including Acquired
Indebtedness) and Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued during the Suspension Period will be deemed to have been incurred or issued in reliance on Section 4.03(a) to the extent such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
would be permitted to be incurred thereunder as of such Reversion Date. To the extent such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would not be so permitted to be incurred, it will be deemed to be incurred in reliance on the exception
provided by Section 4.03(b)(iii). Calculations under the reinstated Section 4.04 will be made as if Section 4.04 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the period 

  
 49 

 
that Section 4.04 was suspended as set forth above. For purposes of determining compliance with Section 4.06, the Excess Proceeds from all Asset Sales not applied in accordance with
such Section will be deemed to be reset to zero after the Reversion Date. In addition, for purposes of Section 4.07, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company
during the Suspension Period will be deemed to have been entered pursuant to Section 4.07(b)(v), and for purposes of Section 4.05, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period that contain any of the restrictions contemplated by
such covenant will be deemed to have been entered pursuant to Section 4.05(c)(ii). In addition, this Indenture also permits, without causing a Default or Event of Default, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to honor any contractual
commitments to take actions following a Reversion Date; provided, however, that such contractual commitments were entered into during the Suspension Period and not in contemplation of a reversion of the Suspended Covenants. The Company shall provide
an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee indicating the occurrence of any Suspension Period or Reversion Date. The Trustee shall have no obligation to independently monitor the ratings of the notes, determine or verify if such events have
occurred or notify the Holders of any Suspension Period or Reversion Date. The Trustee may provide a copy of such Officers’ Certificate to any Holder upon request. 

Section 4.15 Limited Condition Acquisitions. 

(a) When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Indenture or compliance with any provision of this Indenture
in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds
thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Sales), in each case, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for
availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default))
under this Indenture shall be deemed to be the date (the “LCT Test Date”) the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice, declaration of a
Restricted Payment or similar event), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Sales) and any related pro forma adjustments, the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been
permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and
conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes (in the case of Indebtedness, for example, whether such Indebtedness is committed, issued or incurred at the LCT Test Date or at any time thereafter); provided,
however, that (a) if financial statements for one or more subsequent fiscal quarters shall have become available, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-determine all such ratios, tests or
baskets on the basis of such financial statements, in which case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable LCT Test Date for purposes of such ratios, tests or baskets, (b) except as contemplated in the
foregoing clause (a), compliance with such ratios, tests or baskets (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any actions
or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and
Asset Sales) and (c) Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation
with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith. 

  
 50 

 (b) For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have made an LCT Election, (1) if any
of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such
ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of the Company or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed
to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations; (2) if any related requirements and conditions (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default) for which compliance or satisfaction was determined or
tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date not have been complied with or satisfied (including due to the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default), such requirements and conditions will not be deemed
to have been failed to be complied with or satisfied (and such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed not to have occurred or be continuing); and (3) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any
action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or
date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or
basket shall be determined or tested on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof (but without netting the
cash proceeds thereof)) had been consummated. 
 ARTICLE V 

Successor Company 

Section 5.01 When Company May Merge or Transfer Assets. (a) The Company shall not consolidate or merge with or into (whether

thereto. 

  
 51 

 Upon the consummation of any transaction effected in accordance with this
Section 5.01(a), if the Company is not the continuing Person, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture and the Notes with
the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company in this Indenture. Upon such substitution the Company, except in the case of a lease, shall be released from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes. 

(b) Each Guarantor (other than any Guarantor whose Notes Guarantee is to be released in accordance with the terms of the Notes Guarantee and
this Indenture in connection with any transaction not prohibited by Section 4.06) shall not, and the Company shall not cause or permit any such Guarantor to, consolidate with or merge with or into any Person other than the Company or another
Guarantor unless:

 (iv) except in the case
of a merger or consolidation of a Guarantor with or into a Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, immediately after giving effect to such transaction and the use of any net proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, the Company could

 (c) The following additional condition shall apply to each transaction set forth in
Sections 5.01(a) and 5.01(b): the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such transaction and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such
transaction, such supplemental indenture comply with the applicable provisions of this Indenture and that all conditions precedent in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been satisfied and, with respect to the Opinion of Counsel only,
that such supplemental indenture is enforceable, subject to customary qualifications. 
 (d) Clauses (iii) and (iv) of
Section 5.01(a) and clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 5.01(b) shall not be applicable to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary merging with an Affiliate of the Company solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Company or such
Restricted Subsidiary in another permitted jurisdiction.

 (v) (A) failure
by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to make a principal payment on any Indebtedness at or prior to the expiration of the applicable grace period after the final (but not any interim) fixed maturity of such Indebtedness, where the amount of
such unpaid principal exceeds $30.0 million or (B) acceleration of Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary because of a default thereunder, where the total amount of such Indebtedness accelerated exceeds
$30.0 million; 
 (vi) one or more judgments, orders, decrees or arbitration awards are entered against the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiaries involving in the aggregate a liability (to the extent not paid when due or covered by insurance) of $30.0 million or more and all such judgments, orders, decrees or arbitration awards have not been paid and satisfied, vacated,
discharged, stayed or fully bonded pending appeal within 90 days from the entry thereof; 
 (vii) except as permitted by this Indenture,
any Notes Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary of the Company, or the Notes Guarantees of a group of Guarantors that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Company, is held in a 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 Notes Guarantee; 

(viii) the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 
 (A) commences a voluntary case; 

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

or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; and

 (ix) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law

taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Company in an involuntary case;

debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 

Section 6.02 Acceleration. 

(a) If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under clauses (viii) and (ix) of Section 6.01(a), all outstanding Notes shall become due and
payable without further action or notice. Holders of the Notes may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if it determines
that withholding notice is in their interest. 
 (b) In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in
clause (v) of Section 6.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to such clause (v) shall be
remedied or cured by the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 30 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto. 

(c) Any notice of Default, notice of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take
any other action (a “Noteholder Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (other than a Regulated Bank) (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written representation from each such Holder
delivered to the Company and the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is the Depository or its nominee, that such Holder is 

  
 54 

 
being instructed solely by beneficial owners that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”), which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to the
delivery of a notice of Default shall be deemed a continuing representation until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the notes are accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of
providing a Noteholder Direction, to covenant to provide the Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such noteholder’s Position Representation within five
Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). In any case in which the noteholder is the Depository or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the
beneficial owner of the notes in lieu of the Depository or its nominee, and the Depository shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee. 

(d) If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the notes, the Company determines in good faith that
there is a reasonable basis to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Company has initiated litigation in a court of
competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure
period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to such Event of Default shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending a final and
non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company provides to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to such Default shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to any Event of Default
that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of the Position Representation shall result in such noteholder’s
participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if, without the participation of such noteholder, the percentage of notes held by the remaining noteholders that provided such Noteholder Direction would have been insufficient to
validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio, with the effect that such Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed not to have received
such Noteholder Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in the preceding two paragraphs
to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee during the pendency of an Event of Default as the result of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall not require compliance with the foregoing paragraphs. In addition, for the
avoidance of doubt, the foregoing paragraphs shall not apply to any noteholder that is a Regulated Bank. 
 (f) For the avoidance of doubt,
the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture, shall have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with
any Verification Covenant, verify any statements in any Officers’ Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments,
Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise. The Trustee shall have no liability to the Company, any noteholder or any other Person in acting in good faith on a Noteholder Direction. 

Section 6.03 Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by
notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, or the premium, if any, on, or the principal of,
the Notes. 

  
 55 

 Section 6.04 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or 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 in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other
remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. 
 Section 6.05 Compliance Certificate. (a) The Company shall deliver to the
Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ended after the Issue Date an Officers’ Certificate (for which one of the certifying Officers shall be the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial
officer or principal accounting officer) stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Company they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default
that occurred during such period. If they do, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

(b) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence thereof, written notice in the
form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Event of Default under clause (iii), (v), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of Section 6.01(a) and any event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under
clause (iv) of Section 6.01(a), its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

Section 6.06 Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to
Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that
is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

 Section 6.07 Limitation on Suits. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest
when due, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
 (a) the Holder gives to the Trustee written
notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing; 
 (b) the Holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of the Notes make a written
request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (c) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the
Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the
request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 

  
 56 

 (e) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes do not give the Trustee a
direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period. 
 A Holder may not use this
Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. In the event that Definitive Notes are not issued to any owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note at a time at which such
beneficial owner has a right to receive such Definitive Notes pursuant to this Indenture, the Company expressly agrees and acknowledges that (1) such beneficial owner shall have standing to pursue a remedy pursuant to this Indenture to compel
the issuance of such Definitive Notes to such beneficial owner and to compel the registration of such Definitive Notes in the name of such beneficial owner in the register maintained by the Registrar with respect to the Notes and (2) such
beneficial owner shall be entitled, pending such issuance and registration, to sue for payment (which payment shall only be made following such issuance and registration) of the monetary obligation to be represented by such Definitive Notes. The
Company agrees that specific performance is an appropriate form for the remedy referenced in clause (1) of the immediately-preceding sentence and shall not object to such form of such remedy. 

Section 6.08 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder
to receive payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes, 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. 
 Section 6.09 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an
Event of Default specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 6.01(a) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing
(together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 
 Section 6.10
Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative
to the Company or any Guarantor, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and
any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any
amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.07. 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 such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in
respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.11 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or
property pursuant to this Article VI, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
 FIRST: to the Trustee for
amounts due under Section 7.07; 
 SECOND: to the 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 

  
 57 

 THIRD: to the Company or, to the extent the Trustee collects any amount for any Guarantor,
to such Guarantor. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.11.
At least 15 days before such record date, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder and the Company a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid. 

Section 6.12 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by
the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. 

Section 6.13 Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time insist
upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the
Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 ARTICLE VII 

Trustee 
 Section 7.01
Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and is actually known to a responsible officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use
the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent 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: 

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are expressly set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants
or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, the Trustee shall
examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. 
 (c) The Trustee may
not be relieved from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 

(i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section; 

  
 58 

 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (iii) the Trustee
shall 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 6.06. 

(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to this Section 7.01 and Section 7.02. 

(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. 

(f) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

(g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to it. 
 (h) Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 
 Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may rely on 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. The Trustee shall
not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 

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

 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within
its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence. 
 (e)
The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken,
omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 
 (f) The Trustee shall be
under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holder of Notes, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or
expense. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default except (i) during any period it is
serving as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes, any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Sections 6.01(a)(i) and 6.01(a)(ii), or (ii) any Default or Event of Default of 

  
 59 

 
which a Trust Officer shall have (x) received written notification at the office of the Trustee specified in Section 11.02 and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture and
indicates it is a “notice of default” or (y) obtained “actual knowledge.” “Actual knowledge” shall mean when a Trust Officer is actually aware of the fact or statement without independent investigation with respect
thereto. 
 (h) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive 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. 

(i) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized
at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 
 (j) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further
inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or
by agent or attorney, at the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

(k) (i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended
to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

(l) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith at the direction of the holders of not
less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the Trustee or the exercising of any power conferred by this Indenture. 

(m) Any action taken, or omitted to be taken, by the Trustee in good faith pursuant to this Indenture upon the request or authority or consent
of any person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon future holders of Notes and upon Notes executed and delivered in exchange therefor or in place
thereof. 
 (n) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of the trusts and powers under this
Indenture. 
 (o) any permissive right of the Trustee to take or refrain from taking actions enumerated in this Indenture shall not be
construed as a duty. 
 (p) The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
under this Indenture arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage;
epidemics; riots; interruptions; loss or malfunction of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; and acts of civil or military authorities and governmental action. 

(q) Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates shall be responsible for nor have any duty to
monitor the performance or any action of the Company or any 

  
 60 

 
Guarantor, or any of their respective directors, members, officers, agents, affiliates or employee, nor shall it have any liability in connection with the malfeasance or nonfeasance by such
party. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any inaccuracy in the information obtained from the Company or any Guarantor or for any inaccuracy or omission in the records which may result from such information or any failure by the Trustee to
perform its duties as set forth herein as a result of any inaccuracy or incompleteness. 
 (r) if any party fails to deliver a notice
relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively and without liability rely on its failure to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event
occurred. 
 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 become a creditor of, or otherwise deal with, the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. The Paying Agent or Registrar may do the same with like rights. 

Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to
the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Company in this Indenture or in any document
issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 

Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs, is continuing and is actually known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail
to each Holder notice of the Default within 90 days after it having obtained such knowledge. Except in the case of a Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so
long as a Trust Officer in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of the Holders. 

Section 7.06 [Reserved]. 

Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its
services. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the
costs of enforcing this indemnity) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder and regardless of whether any claim involves the Company, Holders or any third party. The Trustee shall
notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend any third party claim and the Trustee may
select separate counsel to represent it with respect to such claim, and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the
Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence. 
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this
Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay principal of and premium, if any, or interest on particular Notes. 

  
 61 

 The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the
discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(viii) or (ix) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under the Bankruptcy Law. 
 This Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if: 

(a) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 

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

(c) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not
reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.

 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail (or otherwise send in accordance with
applicable procedures of the Depository) a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07. 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the
Holders of 10.0% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue
for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges
or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

 In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts
created by this Indenture any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in
case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such
certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 

  
 62 

 ARTICLE VIII 

Discharge of Indenture; Defeasance 

Section 8.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect (except as to
surviving rights and immunities of the Trustee and rights of registration or transfer or exchange of the Notes, as expressly provided for in this Indenture) as to all outstanding Notes and Notes Guarantees when: 

(i) either: 
 (1) all the
Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and
thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (2) all Notes
not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (a) have become due and payable, (b) shall become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year or (c) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called
for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited
with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient or Government Securities, the principal of and interest on which shall be sufficient, or a combination thereof sufficient, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the date of deposit together with irrevocable instructions from the Company directing the Trustee to apply such funds to the payment thereof
at maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 
 (ii) the Company has paid all other sums payable under this Indenture by the Company; and

 (iii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions
precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. 
 Section 8.02
Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. (a) Subject to Sections 8.02(b) and 8.03, the Company at any time may terminate (1) all its obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (“Legal Defeasance”) or
(2) its obligations under Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 6.05 and the operation of Sections 6.01(a)(iv), 6.01(a)(v), 6.01(a)(vi), 6.01(a)(vii), 6.01(a)(viii) and
6.01(a)(ix) (but, in the case of Sections 6.01(a)(viii) and 6.01(a)(ix), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) and the
limitations contained in Section 5.01(a)(iv) (“Covenant Defeasance”). The Company may exercise a Legal Defeasance notwithstanding its prior exercise of Covenant Defeasance. 

If the Company exercises a Legal Defeasance, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default. If the Company
exercises a Covenant Defeasance, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(iv), 6.01(a)(v), 6.01(a)(vi), 6.01(a)(vii), 6.01(a)(viii) or 6.01(a)(ix) (but, in the case of
Sections 6.01(a)(viii) and 6.01(a)(ix), with respect only to Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) or because of the failure of the Company to
comply with Section 5.01(a)(iv). If the Company exercises a Legal Defeasance or a Covenant Defeasance, each Guarantor, if any, shall be simultaneously released from all its obligations with respect to its Notes Guarantee. 

  
 63 

 Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein and upon request of the Company, the
Trustee shall acknowledge in writing the discharge of those obligations that the Company terminates. 
 (b) Notwithstanding
Sections 8.01 and 8.02(a), the Company’s obligations in Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.10, 7.07 and 7.08 and in this Article VIII shall survive until the Notes have been paid in full. Thereafter, the
Company’s obligations in Sections 7.07, 8.06 and 8.07 shall survive. 
 Section 8.03 Conditions to Defeasance. In
order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: 
 (i) 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 thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized
firm of independent public accountants, without consideration of reinvestment, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the outstanding Notes on the stated maturity date or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be,
and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular Redemption Date; 
 (ii) in the case of
Legal Defeasance, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, (1) the Company has received
from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (2) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of
counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. 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; 
 (iii) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for
U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. 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; 
 (iv) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default resulting from the
borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 
 (v) 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 of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 

(vi) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with
the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over the other creditors of the Company or the Guarantors with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or any Guarantor or others; and 

  
 64 

 (vii) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel (which opinion may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied
with. 
 Before or after a deposit, the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Notes at a future
date in accordance with Article III. 
 Section 8.04 Application of Trust Money. The Trustee shall hold in trust money or
Government Securities deposited with it pursuant to this Article VIII. It shall apply the deposited money and the money from Government Securities through the Paying Agent and in accordance with this Indenture to the payment of principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on the Notes. 
 Section 8.05 Repayment to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
promptly turn over to the Company upon request any excess money or securities held by them at any time. 
 Subject to any applicable
abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled
to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors. 
 Section 8.06 Indemnity for Government Securities. The
Company shall pay and shall indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed on the Trustee in its capacity as such against deposited Government Securities or the principal and interest received on such Government
Securities. 
 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities
in accordance with this Article VIII 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 each
Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, each Guarantee and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply
all such money or Government Securities in accordance with this Article VIII; provided, however, that, if the Company has made any payment of premium, if any, or interest on or principal of 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. 

ARTICLE IX 
 Amendments 

Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders. Notwithstanding Section 9.02, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the
Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Notes: 
 (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect
or inconsistency; 
 (ii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided, however, that the
uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code); 

  
 65 

 (iii) to provide for the assumption by a successor corporation of the obligations of the
Company or a Guarantor to Holders under this Indenture in the case of a merger or consolidation; 
 (iv) to make any change that would
provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder; 

(v) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Indenture of a successor trustee; 

(vi) to add one or more Guarantors under this Indenture, or to secure the Notes or any of the Notes Guarantees; 

(vii) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or any Notes Guarantee to any provision of the section of the Offering Memorandum
entitled “Description of Notes”; 
 (viii) to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary; or 

(ix) to make any amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes; provided, however, that
(1) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other applicable securities law and (2) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the
rights of Holders to transfer Notes. 
 Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this
Article IX or Section 6.03, this Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented (or a waiver may be granted with respect to any default or noncompliance with any provision thereof) with the written consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). Without the consent of each Holder affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may
not, among other things: 
 (i) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 

(ii) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note; 

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

(iv) waive a Default in the payment of, principal of or premium, if any, or interest 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 Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 

(v) (A) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Notes Guarantee other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
or (B) adversely change any Notes Guarantee, except in each case as provided for in this Indenture; 
 (vi) make any Note payable in
money other than that stated in the Notes; 
 (vii) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past
Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment; 

  
 66 

 (viii) make any change to the provisions applicable to the redemption of any Note as set
forth in Section 3.07; provided, however, that any amendment to alter the provisions relating to the dates on which the Notes may be redeemed shall only require consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes;

 (ix) make any change in the ranking or priority of any Note that would adversely affect the Holders; or 

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

(b) The consent of the Holders is not necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is
sufficient if such consent approves the substance of the proposed amendment. 
 Section 9.03 Notice of Amendments. After an
amendment under this Indenture becomes effective, the Company shall mail (or otherwise send in accordance with applicable procedures of the Depository) to the Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. However, the failure to give such
notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of the amendment. 
 Section 9.04
[Reserved]. 
 Section 9.05 Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. (a) A consent to an amendment or a waiver
by a Holder of a Note shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note.
However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an
amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver becomes effective upon the execution of such amendment or waiver by the Trustee. 

(b) The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their
consent or take any other action set forth above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately- preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record
date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date.
No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 
 Section 9.06 Notation on or Exchange
of Notes. If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder.
Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new
Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment. 
 Section 9.07 Trustee To Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any
amendment authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing such amendment the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive, and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is
authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 

  
 67 

 Section 9.08 Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel To
Trustee. In connection with any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Officers’ Certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to such amendment, supplement or waiver
have been satisfied and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture, and, with respect to such opinion of counsel, that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Company, if applicable, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. 
 ARTICLE X 

Guarantees 

Section 10.01 Guarantees. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly and severally, to each Holder
and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns (a) the full and punctual payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other
monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes and (b) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing being
hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from such Guarantor and
that such Guarantor will remain bound under this Article X notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation. 

Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of, payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives
notice of protest for nonpayment. Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (1) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to
assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person (including any Guarantor) under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (2) any extension or renewal of this Indenture,
the Notes or any other agreement; (3) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (4) the release of any security held by any Holder or the
Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any of them; (5) the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (6) except as set forth in
Section 10.06, any change in the ownership of such Guarantor. 
 Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a
guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01, 8.02, 10.02 and 10.06, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject
to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination
whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or
otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or
delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or would otherwise
operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law or equity. 

  
 68 

 Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Company or otherwise. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or
the Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at
maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in
cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum (without duplication) of (A) the unpaid principal amount, including any premium thereon to the extent such premium has become due and payable, of such Guaranteed Obligations,
(B) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (C) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Company to the Holders and the Trustee. 

Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity
of the Guaranteed Obligations hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of such Guarantor’s Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of
the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article VI, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith
become due and payable by such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section. 
 Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and
expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) properly incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Section. 

Section 10.02 Limitation on Liability. Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder hereby confirms that it is the
intention of all such parties that the Notes 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, state, provincial, foreign or local law to the extent applicable to any Notes Guarantee and that such Guarantor’s Notes Guarantee otherwise be limited to the maximum amount that can be guaranteed under applicable laws. Accordingly,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the obligations of each Guarantor under its Notes Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount that can be guaranteed under applicable laws, including Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform
Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal, state, provincial, foreign or local law, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are
relevant under such laws. In the event of default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Notes (including any obligation to repurchase the Notes), the Trustee may institute legal proceedings directly
against the relevant Guarantor without first proceeding against the Company. 
 Section 10.03 Successors and Assigns. This
Article X shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or
the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture. 

  
 69 

 Section 10.04 No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the
Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article X shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.
The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article X at law, in equity, by statute or
otherwise. 
 Section 10.05 Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Article X, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. 

Section 10.06 Release of Guarantor. A Guarantor’s Notes Guarantee shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and
such Guarantor shall be deemed to be released from all obligations under this Article X: 
 (a) upon the sale (including any sale
pursuant to any exercise of remedies by a holder of Indebtedness of the Company or of such Guarantor) or other disposition of such Guarantor (including by way of merger, consolidation or sale of its Capital Stock and whether or not such Guarantor is
the surviving corporation in such transaction), 
 (b) upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such
Guarantor (other than by lease), 
 (c) upon the designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of
this Indenture, 
 (d) upon exercise by the Company of its option to elect Covenant Defeasance or Legal Defeasance pursuant to
Article VIII, 
 (e) upon a liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor in a manner not prohibited by this Indenture, 

(f) upon the release or discharge of the Guarantee that resulted in the creation of such Notes Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.11
(unless, at such time, such Guarantor would be required to provide a Notes Guarantee pursuant to Section 4.11), except a release or discharge by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee, or 

(g) upon the discharge of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture in accordance with Section 8.01 or otherwise in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture; 
 provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 10.06, (i) such sale or other
disposition is made to a Person other than the Company, a Restricted Subsidiary or any of their Affiliates and (ii) such sale or disposition is otherwise permitted by this Indenture. 

At the request of the Company, accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of counsel confirming that all conditions precedent to
such release have been complied with, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release. 

  
 70 

 Section 10.07 Contribution. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Notes
Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the
respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 

Section 10.08 Non-Impairment. The failure to endorse a Notes Guarantee on any Note
shall not affect or impair the validity of such Notes Guarantee.

 Any notice or communication to a Holder shall be mailed by first-class mail (registered or
certified, return receipt requested) or sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next-day delivery to such Holder at such Holder’s address as it appears on the registration books of the Registrar and
shall be sufficiently given if so mailed or sent within the time prescribed. All notices or communications shall be deemed to have been duly given at the time delivered in person, if so delivered; three Business Days after being deposited in the

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Note, where this Indenture or any Note
requires or provides for notice (including any notice of redemption) or any other communication to a Holder, whether by mail or otherwise, such notice or communication shall be sufficiently given, with respect a Holder of Global Notes, if given to
the Depository (or its designee) in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository. 
 Failure to mail or send a notice or
communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. If a notice or communication is delivered, mailed, transmitted or sent in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly
given, whether or not the addressee receives it. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition
precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance on such waiver. 
 In case it shall be impracticable to give notice in the manner
provided above, including by reason of a suspension of regular mail service, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

Section 11.03 Communication by Holders with Other Holders. Holders may communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights
under this Indenture or the Notes. 
 Section 11.04 Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. Upon any request

all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and 
 (b) an
Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel (who may rely upon an Officers’ Certificate as to matters of fact), all such conditions precedent have been complied
with. 
 Section 11.05 Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance
with a covenant or condition provided for in this Indenture (other than pursuant to Section 6.05) shall include: 
 (a) a statement
that the individual making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition; 

  
 72 

 (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon
which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based; 
 (c) a statement that, in the opinion of such
individual, the individual has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable the individual to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and 

(d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such individual, such covenant or condition has been complied with. 

Section 11.06 When Notes Disregarded. 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 by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding,
except that, for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes which the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Subject to the foregoing, only Notes
outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such determination. 
 Section 11.07 Rules by Trustee, Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or a meeting of Holders. The Registrar and the Paying Agent may make reasonable rules for their functions. 

Section 11.08 Legal Holidays. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is not a
Legal Holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period on any amount that would otherwise have been payable on such payment date if it were not a Legal Holiday. If a regular record date is a Legal Holiday, the record date shall not
be affected. 
 Section 11.09 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction. THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH
THIS INDENTURE. The parties hereby (i) irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, the city of New York, (ii) waive any
objection to laying of venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, and (iii) waive any objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any party. 

Section 11.10 No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company, and no
director, trustee, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder (other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) of any Subsidiary of the Company, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the
Notes, this Indenture or any Notes Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. This waiver and release shall be
part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.  
 Section 11.11 Successors. All agreements of the Company in this
Indenture and the Notes shall bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. 
 Section
11.12 Multiple Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. Any
signature to this Indenture (or any supplement hereto) may be 

  
 73 

 
delivered by facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf) or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 or the New York Electronic Signature and Records Act or other
transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Each of the parties represents and warrants
to the other parties that it has the corporate or other capacity and authority to execute this Indenture through electronic means and there are no restrictions for doing so in that party’s constitutive documents. 

Section 11.13 Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and
Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part of this Indenture and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture. 

Section 11.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the exhibits hereto set forth the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties related to this transaction and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written. 
 Section 11.15
Severability. In case any provision in this Indenture or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and
such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability. 
 Section 11.16
No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt

PROVISIONS RELATING TO INITIAL NOTES AND 

REPLACEMENT NOTES 
  

	 	1.	 Definitions 

1.1 Definitions. For the purposes of this Rule 144A/Regulation S Appendix (this “Appendix”), the following

	 	2.	 The Notes. 

2.1 (a) Form and Dating. The Initial Notes will be offered and sold by the Company pursuant to a Purchase Agreement. The Initial
Notes will be resold initially only to (i) QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and (ii) Persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S) in reliance on Regulation
S; provided that, unless the Company elects to provide for the offer or sale of Initial Notes in reliance on Regulation S in accordance with Rule 903 under the Securities Act (it being understood that, as of the Issue Date, the
Company has not made such election with respect to the Initial Notes), the immediately-preceding clause (ii) shall not apply to such Initial Notes, and provisions in this Appendix relating to Regulation S Global Notes or the Regulation S Legend
shall not be applicable to the extent they relate to Regulation S Global Notes or the Regulation S Legend. Initial Notes may thereafter be 

  
 A-2 

 
transferred to, among others, QIBs and purchasers in reliance on Regulation S, subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein. Initial Notes initially resold pursuant to Rule 144A shall
be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent global Notes in definitive, fully registered form ( “Rule 144A Global Notes”); and Initial Notes initially resold pursuant to Regulation S shall be issued initially in the
form of one or more temporary global securities in fully registered form (“Temporary Regulation S Global Notes”), in each case without interest coupons and with the global securities legend and the applicable Restrictive Legends,
which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Initial Notes represented thereby with the Notes Custodian and registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository, duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the
Trustee as provided in the Indenture. Except as set forth in this Section 2.1(a), beneficial ownership interests in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note will not be exchangeable for interests in Rule 144A Global Notes, permanent Regulation S
global Notes (“Permanent Regulation S Global Notes” and, together with Temporary Regulation S Global Notes, “Regulation S Global Notes”) or any other Note prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance
Period and then, after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, may be exchanged for interests in a Rule 144A Global Note or a Permanent Regulation S Global Note only upon certification in form reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee that beneficial ownership interests in such Temporary Regulation S Global Note are owned either by non-U.S. persons or U.S. persons who purchased such interests in a transaction that did not require
registration under the Securities Act. 
 Beneficial interests in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged for interests in
Rule 144A Global Notes if (1) such exchange occurs in connection with a transfer of Notes in compliance with Rule 144A and (2) the transferor of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note first delivers to the
Trustee a written certificate (in the form set forth on the reverse of the Note) to the effect that the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note is being transferred to a Person (a) who the transferor reasonably believes to
be a QIB, (b) purchasing for its own account or the account of a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, and (c) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the States of the United States and other
jurisdictions. 
 Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an
interest in a Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in the form set forth on the reverse of the Note)
to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if applicable). 

Rule 144A Global Notes, Temporary Regulation S Global Notes and Permanent Regulation S Global Notes are collectively referred to herein as
“Restricted Global Notes.” Any other Notes in global form, without Restrictive Legends, are collectively referred to herein as “Unrestricted Global Notes” (together with Restricted Global Notes, “Global
Notes”). The aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depository or its nominee as hereinafter provided. 

(b) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.1(b) shall apply only to a Global Note deposited with or on behalf of the
Depository. 
 The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section 2.1(b), authenticate and deliver
initially one or more Global Notes that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Note or Global Notes or the nominee of such Depository and (b) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depository or pursuant
to such Depository’s instructions or held by the Trustee as custodian for the Depository. 

  
 A-3 

 Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have
no rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or by the Trustee as the custodian of the Depository or under such Global Note, and the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Depository as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee
from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of
the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. 
 (c) Definitive Notes. Except as provided in this
Section 2.1 of this Appendix or Section 2.3 or 2.4 of this Appendix, owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Definitive Notes. 

2.2 Authentication. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (1) on the Issue Date, an aggregate principal amount of
$300.0 million 7.375% Senior Notes due 2025, (2) any Additional Notes for an original issue in an aggregate principal amount specified in the written order of the Company pursuant to this Section 2.2 and (3) any other Notes
issued after the Issue Date in replacement of or exchange for any Note in like principal amount (any such Notes, “Replacement Notes”), in each case upon a written order of the Company signed by an Officer. Such order shall specify
the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture, shall certify that such
issuance is in compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture. 
 2.3 Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Definitive Notes. When Definitive Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request: 

(x) to register the transfer of such Definitive Notes; or 

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

the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are
met; provided, however, that the Definitive Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange: 
 (i) shall
be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and 

(ii) if such Definitive Notes are required to bear a restricted securities legend, they are being transferred or exchanged
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 2.3(b) of this Appendix or pursuant to clause (A), (B) or (C) below, and are accompanied by the following additional information and documents,
as applicable: 
 (A) if such Definitive Notes are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name
of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect; or 

  
 A-4 

 (B) if such Definitive Notes are being transferred to the Company, a
certification to that effect; or 
 (C) if such Definitive Notes are being transferred (x) pursuant to an exemption from
registration in accordance with Rule 144A, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or (y) in reliance upon another exemption from the requirements of the Securities Act: (i) a certification to that effect (in the form set forth
on the reverse of the Note) and (ii) if the Company so requests, an opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the legend set forth in Section 2.3(e)(i) of
this Appendix. 
 (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Restricted Global Note. A
Definitive Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note or a Permanent Regulation S Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Definitive Note, duly
endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, together with: 
 (i)
certification, in the form set forth on the reverse of the Note, that such Definitive Note is either (A) being transferred to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A or (B) being transferred
after expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period by a Person who initially purchased such Note in reliance on Regulation S to a buyer who elects to hold its interest in such Note in the form of a beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation
S Global Note; and 
 (ii) written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Notes Custodian to make, an
adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Rule 144A Global Note (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(A) of this Section 2.3) or Permanent Regulation S Global Note (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause
(b)(i)(B) of this Section 2.3) to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, such instructions to contain information
regarding the Depository account to be credited with such increase, 
 then the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Note and cause, or direct the Notes
Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Notes Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S
Global Note, as applicable, to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the
Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled. If no Rule 144A Global Notes or Permanent Regulation S Global Notes, as applicable, are then outstanding,
the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of the Company, a new Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, in the
appropriate principal amount. 
 (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes 

(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in
accordance with the Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depository therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Registrar a written
order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Global Note. The Registrar shall, in

  
 A-5 

 
accordance with such instructions instruct the Depository to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note and to debit the account
of the Person making the transfer of the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. 
 (ii) If the proposed
transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which
such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global
Note from which such interest is being transferred. Upon such transfer, the beneficial interest in such first-referenced Global Note shall cease to be an interest in such Global Note and shall become an interest in such other Global Note. 

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4 of this
Appendix), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a
successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 
 (iv) In the event that a beneficial interest in a
Restricted Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes under Section 2.4 of this Appendix, such Notes may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3
(including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the Initial Notes intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act, as the case may be) and such
other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Company. 
 (d) Restrictions on Transfer of Temporary Regulation S Global
Notes. During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in Temporary Regulation S Global Notes may only be sold, pledged or transferred in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and only (i) to the Company,
(ii) in an offshore transaction in accordance with Regulation S (other than a transaction resulting in an exchange for an interest in a Permanent Regulation S Global Note), (iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States. 
 (e)
Legend. In each case unless the Company determines otherwise in compliance with applicable law: 
 (i) Except as
permitted by the following paragraphs (ii) and (iii), each Note certificate evidencing Restricted Global Notes (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof), in the case of Notes offered otherwise than in reliance on
Regulation S, shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (the “Restricted Note Legend”): 

THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE UNITED STATES
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THIS NOTE IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT
THE SELLER OF THIS NOTE MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER. 

  
 A-6 

 THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT
(A) THIS NOTE MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) TO THE ISSUER OR ANY OF ITS WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARIES, (II) IN THE UNITED STATES TO A PERSON WHO THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED
INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A, (III) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT, (IV) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER (IF AVAILABLE), (V) UNDER ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT
OR (VI) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (VI) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND IN EACH OF CASES (III), (IV)
AND (V) SUBJECT TO THE ISSUER’S AND THE TRUSTEE’S RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION, AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THE ISSUER AND THE
TRUSTEE AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF THIS NOTE FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE. 

Each certificate evidencing a Note offered in reliance on Regulation S shall, in addition to the foregoing, bear a legend in
substantially the following form (the “Regulation S Legend”): 
 THIS NOTE (OR ITS
PREDECESSOR) WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION ORIGINALLY EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE
ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, ANY U.S. PERSON EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. TERMS USED ABOVE HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM IN
REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 Each Global Note shall also bear the following additional legend (and/or such
other legend as may be required by the Depository) (the “Global Note Legend”): 
 Unless this certificate is
presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange, or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of
Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE,
OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein. 

TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, TO NOMINEES OF DTC OR TO A SUCCESSOR
THEREOF OR SUCH SUCCESSOR’S NOMINEE AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL NOTE SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED TO ON THE REVERSE HEREOF. 

  
 A-7 

 Each Regulation S Global Note shall also bear a legend substantially in the
following form (the “Regulation S Global Note Legend”): 
 UNTIL 40 DAYS AFTER THE LATER
OF COMMENCEMENT OR COMPLETION OF THE OFFERING, AN OFFER OR SALE OF SECURITIES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES BY A DEALER (AS DEFINED IN THE SECURITIES ACT) MAY VIOLATE THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT IF SUCH OFFER OR SALE IS MADE
OTHERWISE THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144A THEREUNDER. 
 Each Temporary Regulation S Global Note shall also bear a legend
substantially in the following form (the “Temporary Regulation S Global Note Legend”): 

EXCEPT AS SET FORTH BELOW, BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THIS TEMPORARY REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE WILL NOT BE EXCHANGEABLE
FOR INTERESTS IN THE PERMANENT REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE OR ANY OTHER SECURITY REPRESENTING AN INTEREST IN THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY WHICH DO NOT CONTAIN A LEGEND CONTAINING RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, UNTIL THE EXPIRATION OF THE “40-DAY DISTRIBUTION COMPLIANCE PERIOD” (WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 903(b)(2) OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) AND THEN ONLY UPON CERTIFICATION IN FORM REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE TRUSTEE THAT
SUCH BENEFICIAL INTERESTS ARE OWNED EITHER BY NON-U.S. PERSONS OR U.S. PERSONS WHO PURCHASED SUCH INTERESTS IN A TRANSACTION THAT DID NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. DURING SUCH 40-DAY DISTRIBUTION COMPLIANCE PERIOD, BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THIS TEMPORARY REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE MAY ONLY BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR TRANSFERRED (I) TO THE COMPANY, (II) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
IN A TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR (III) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (III) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE
SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES. HOLDERS OF INTERESTS IN THIS TEMPORARY REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE WILL NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO ABOVE, IF THEN APPLICABLE. 

AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE DISTRIBUTION COMPLIANCE PERIOD BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN THIS TEMPORARY REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE MAY
BE EXCHANGED FOR INTERESTS IN A RULE 144A GLOBAL NOTE ONLY IF (1) SUCH EXCHANGE OCCURS IN CONNECTION WITH A TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A AND (2) THE TRANSFEROR OF THE REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE FIRST DELIVERS TO
THE TRUSTEE A WRITTEN CERTIFICATE (IN THE FORM ATTACHED TO THIS NOTE) TO THE EFFECT THAT THE REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE IS BEING TRANSFERRED (A) TO A PERSON WHO THE TRANSFEROR REASONABLY BELIEVES TO BE A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE
MEANING OF RULE 144A, (B) TO A PERSON WHO IS PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A, AND (C) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS
OF THE STATES OF THE UNITED STATES AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS. 

  
 A-8 

 BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN A RULE 144A GLOBAL NOTE MAY BE TRANSFERRED TO A
PERSON WHO TAKES DELIVERY IN THE FORM OF AN INTEREST IN THE REGULATION S GLOBAL NOTE, WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE 40-DAY DISTRIBUTION COMPLIANCE PERIOD, ONLY IF THE TRANSFEROR FIRST DELIVERS
TO THE TRUSTEE A WRITTEN CERTIFICATE (IN THE FORM ATTACHED TO THIS NOTE) TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 903 OR 904 OF REGULATION S OR RULE 144 (IF AVAILABLE). 

Each Definitive Note shall also bear the following additional legend (the “Definitive Note Legend”): 

IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER, THE HOLDER WILL DELIVER TO THE REGISTRAR SUCH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER INFORMATION AS THE
REGISTRAR MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS. 
 (ii) Upon any sale
or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Note that is a Definitive Note pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Registrar shall permit the transferee thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a certificated Note that does not bear
the legend set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Note, if the transferor thereof certifies in writing to the Registrar that such sale or transfer was made in reliance on Rule 144 (such
certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse of the Note). 
 (iii) At the option of the Company and upon
compliance with the following procedures, the beneficial interests in a Restricted Global Note shall be exchanged for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note, without the Restrictive Legends. In order to effect such exchange, the Company
shall provide written notice to the Trustee instructing the Trustee to (i) direct the Depository to transfer the specified amount of the outstanding beneficial interests in a particular Restricted Global Note to an Unrestricted Global Note and
provide the Depository with all such information as is necessary for the Depository to appropriately credit and debit the relevant Holder accounts and (ii) provide prior written notice to all Holders of such exchange through the Depository or
its nominee, which notice must include the date such exchange is proposed to occur, the CUSIP number of the relevant Restricted Global Note and the CUSIP number of the Unrestricted Global Note into which such Holders’ beneficial interests will
be exchanged. As a condition to any such exchange pursuant to this Section 2.3(e)(iii), the Trustee shall be entitled to receive from the Company, and rely conclusively without any liability, upon an Officers’ Certificate to the effect
that such transfer of beneficial interests to the Unrestricted Global Note shall be effected in compliance with the Securities Act. The Company may request from Holders, and Holders shall promptly provide, such information the Company reasonably
determines is required in order to be able to deliver such Officers’ Certificate. Upon such exchange of beneficial interests pursuant to this Section 2.3(e)(iii), the Registrar shall endorse the “schedule of increases and decreases in
global note” to the relevant Global Notes and reflect on its books and records the date of such transfer and a decrease and increase, respectively, in the principal amount of the applicable Restricted Global Note(s) and Unrestricted Global
Notes, respectively, equal to the principal amount of beneficial interests transferred. Following any such transfer pursuant to this Section 2.3(e)(iii) of all of the beneficial interests in a Restricted Global Note, such Restricted Global Note
shall be cancelled. 

  
 A-9 

 (f) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial
interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, redeemed, purchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned to the Depository for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such
cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for certificated Notes, redeemed, purchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the
books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Notes Custodian, to reflect such reduction. 

(g) No Obligation of the Trustee. 

(i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a
participant in the Depository or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depository or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery
to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depository) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given
to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depository or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial
owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depository subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with
respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. 
 (ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to
monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under the Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depository
participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of the
Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements of the Indenture. 
 2.4
Definitive Notes. (a) A Global Note deposited with the Depository or with the Trustee as Notes Custodian for the Depository pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Appendix shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the
form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.3 of this Appendix and (i) the Depository notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for such Global Note or such Depository ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor depository is not appointed by
the Company within 120 days after such notice or cessation (as applicable), or (ii) the Depository so requests and an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee
in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes under the Indenture. 
 (b) Any Global Note that is transferable to the
beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be surrendered by the Depository to the Trustee located at its corporate trust office to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 2.4
shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such names as the Depository 

  
 A-10 

 
shall direct. Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in the Transfer Restricted Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.3(e) of this Appendix, bear the

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL NOTE] 

7.375% Senior Notes due 2025 
  

	1.	 Interest 

PRA Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being
herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company will pay interest on the Notes semiannually in arrears on September 1 and
March 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2021. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date (or, in the case of any Additional Notes as
to which no interest has been paid, from any later date as specified in such Additional Notes). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months. The Company will pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by this Note, and it will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

 

	2.	 Method of Payment 

The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of
business on the August 15 and February 15 next preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect
principal payments. The Company will pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose
within the United States of America or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the register of Holders of
Notes; provided, however, that all payments of principal, premium and interest with respect to Notes the Holders of which have given wire transfer instructions to the Company will be required to be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof. Until otherwise designated by the Company, the Company’s office or agency in the United States of America will be the corporate trust office of the Trustee maintained
for such purpose, which shall initially be 1180 West Peachtree Street, Suite 1200, Atlanta, Georgia 30309. Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depository. The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Note (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of
each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on a certificated Note will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by
wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its
discretion). 
  

	3.	 Paying Agent and Registrar 

Initially, the Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
notice. The Company or any Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company incorporated or organized within the United States of America may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 

  
 I-4 

	4.	 Indenture 

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of August 27, 2020 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the
Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders
are referred to the Indenture for a statement of those terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 

The Company shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture, to issue Additional Notes pursuant to
Section 2.13 of the Indenture. The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date and any Additional Notes and Replacement Notes will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture. The Indenture contains covenants (i) that
impose certain limitations on the ability of the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock; make investments;
engage in transactions with Affiliates; create liens on assets; transfer or sell assets; guarantee indebtedness; and restrict dividends or other payments of subsidiaries; and (ii) that impose certain limitations on the ability of the Company
and each Guarantor to consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets. These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications. 
  

	5.	 Optional Redemption 

At any time and from time to time prior to September 1, 2022, the Notes may be redeemed at the Company’s option, in whole or in part,
at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record
date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, plus the Applicable Premium as of the applicable Redemption Date. 
 On
and after September 1, 2022, the Notes may be redeemed, at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at the redemption prices set forth below. The Notes shall be redeemable at the redemption prices
(expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of Notes on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on September 1 of each of the years indicated below: 

 

			
	 Year
	  	Percentage
	 2022
	  	103.688%
	 2023
	  	101.844%
	 2024 and thereafter
	  	100.000%

 In addition, at any time on or prior to September 1, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions
redeem up to an aggregate of 40.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price of 107.375% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable
Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, with the Net Cash Proceeds of a public offering of common stock of the
Company; provided, however, that at least 60.0% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and that such redemption shall occur within 90 days of
the date of the closing of such public offering. 

  
 I-5 

 In connection with any tender offer for the Notes, including a Change of Control Offer, if
Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or any third party making such tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases
all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, all of the Holders will be deemed to have consented to such tender or other offer and accordingly, the Company or such third party will have the right, upon notice of redemption
sent or mailed not more than 30 days following the date of such purchase, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the price offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the
extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date. 

If the Redemption Date with respect to a Note to be redeemed is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related interest
payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest on that Note shall be payable to the Person that was, at the close of business on such record date, the Holder of that Note, and no additional interest for the period to which that interest record date
relates shall be payable with respect to that Note. 
  

	6.	 Notice of Redemption 

Notice of redemption will be mailed (or otherwise sent in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository) at least 10 days but not
more than 60 days before the applicable Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his registered address. No Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 principal amount may be
redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of $1,000. Subject to any conditions precedent set forth in the notice of redemption, Notes called for redemption become due on the applicable Redemption Date. On and after the applicable Redemption
Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption. Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including an offering of common stock of the Company, an incurrence of Indebtedness
or a Change of Control) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof, and any redemption or notice of redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including
completion of a related transaction. If a redemption or notice of redemption of the Notes is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, in the Company’s discretion, the applicable Redemption Date may be delayed until such
time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and the applicable notice of redemption may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the applicable Redemption
Date, or by the applicable Redemption Date as so delayed. 
  

	7.	 Repurchase of Notes at the Option of the Holders upon Change of Control and Asset Sales

 Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Notes will have the right to cause the Company to repurchase all or any part
(equal to a minimum denomination of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Notes of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest
to but excluding the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. 

In accordance with Section 4.06 of the Indenture, the Company will be required to offer to purchase Notes upon the occurrence of certain
events. 

  
 I-6 

	8.	 Guarantee 

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

	9.	 Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 

The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A
Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder to, among other things, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay
any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company shall not be required to transfer or exchange, and the Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange, of any Note selected for redemption (except, in the case of a
Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 

 

	10.	 Persons Deemed Owners 

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

 

	11.	 Unclaimed Money 

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

 

	12.	 Discharge and Defeasance 

Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time shall be entitled to terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the
Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or Government Securities for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be. 

 

	13.	 Amendment, Waiver 

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (a) the Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented (and waivers
granted with respect to any provisions thereof) with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and (b) any default or noncompliance with any provision thereof may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or
supplement the Indenture or the Notes to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency; to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes (provided, however, that the uncertificated Notes are issued in
registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code); to provide for the assumption by a successor corporation of the obligations of the Company or a Guarantor to Holders under the Indenture in the case of a merger or consolidation; to
make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder; to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under
the 

  
 I-7 

 
Indenture of a successor trustee; to add one or more Guarantors under the Indenture, or to secure the Notes or any of the Notes Guarantees; to conform the text of the Indenture, the Notes or any
Notes Guarantee to any provision of the section of the Offering Memorandum entitled “Description of Notes”; to comply with the rules of any applicable securities depositary; or to make any amendment to the provisions of the Indenture
relating to the transfer and legending of Notes; provided, however, that (1) compliance with the Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any other
applicable securities law and (2) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Holders to transfer Notes. 
  

	14.	 Defaults and Remedies 

Under the Indenture and subject to the terms of the Indenture, Events of Default include: (i) default in the payment when due of interest
on the Notes, which default continues for 30 consecutive days; (ii) default in payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when due, at Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase or otherwise;
(iii) failure by the Company to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes, in certain cases subject to notice or lapse of time; (iv) certain accelerations (including failure to pay within any grace period after final
maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Company if the amount accelerated (or so unpaid) exceeds $30.0 million; (v) certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $30.0 million; (vi) certain defaults with
respect to the Notes Guarantees; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or
insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Notes being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default. 

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the
Notes unless it receives indemnity or security satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from
Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders. 
  

	15.	 Trustee Dealings with the Company 

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Indenture, the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee
of Notes and may become a creditor of, or otherwise deal with, the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 
  

	16.	 No Recourse Against Others 

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company, and no director, trustee, officer, employee, incorporator or
shareholder (other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) of any Subsidiary of the Company, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Notes, the Indenture or any Notes Guarantee or for any
claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. This waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.

  
 I-8 

	17.	 Authentication 

This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of
authentication on the other side of this Note.

[CUSIP numbers and ISINs [and Common Code numbers]] in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers, either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption,

This certificate is delivered to request a transfer of
$[                ] principal amount of the 7.375% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”) of PRA Group, Inc. (the “Company”).

 The undersigned represents and warrants to you that: 

1. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional “accredited investor” at least $500,000 principal amount of the Notes, and we are acquiring the Notes not
with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our
investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business. We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment. 

2. We understand that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as
permitted in the following sentence. We agree on our own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which we are purchasing Notes to offer, sell or otherwise transfer such Notes prior to the date that is one year after the later of the date of
original issue and the last date on which the Company or any affiliate of the Company was the owner of such Notes (or any predecessor thereto) (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) only (i) to the Company or any of its
wholly owned subsidiaries, (ii) in the United States to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a qualified institutional buyer in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (iii) outside the United States in a
transaction in accordance with the provisions of Rule 904 under the Securities Act, (iv) pursuant to an

allocable for income Tax purposes to Buyer pursuant to Section 468B(g) of the Code and Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-8,
(ii) if and to the extent any amount in the Escrow Account is actually distributed to or on behalf of the Seller (or deemed distributed

Seller, as required by Section 483 or 1274 of the Code, and (iii) in no event shall the aggregate payments under the Escrow Agreement
to the Seller from the Escrow Account exceed the sum of the Escrow Amount. Clause (iii) of the preceding sentence is intended to
ensure that the right of the Seller to the Escrow Amount and any interest and earnings earned thereon is not treated as a contingent
payment without a stated maximum selling price under Section 453 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.
No party hereto shall take any action or filing position inconsistent with the foregoing, except as required by applicable Law.

Required Withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each of Buyer and the Escrow
Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Seller
such amounts as are required under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Law. To the extent that amounts are so
withheld by Buyer or the Escrow Agent, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been
paid to the Seller in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made by Buyer or the Escrow Agent. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no amount shall be withheld from any payment made hereunder to a seller who provides Buyer or the Escrow Agent with
a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or Substitute Form W-9, or who otherwise provides Buyer or the Escrow Agent
with appropriate evidence that such Person is exempt from federal income Tax back-up withholding.

Limitations.

(a)               
Basket. The Buyer shall not have any rights under Section 6.2(a) for any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation

any claim or the commencement of any Legal Proceeding by any third party (a “Third Party Claim”) in respect
of which indemnity may be sought under such section. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such Third Party Claim and
the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so
notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such
failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and shall be entitled to
control and appoint lead counsel for such defense. The Indemnified Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnifying

of this Section 6.4, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim if the settlement
does not release the Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third Party Claim or the settlement
imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party.

(d)              
If the Indemnifying Party has elected to control the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled

involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to give prompt notice in writing of such claim to the Indemnifying Party.

Treatment of Indemnification Payments. The Parties agree that any indemnity payments made pursuant to this Section 6

Legal Requirements. In addition, the Parties agree that if any indemnity payments are owed to Buyer pursuant to this Section 6,
Buyer shall have the right to offset the payment amounts from the Escrow Amount in the Escrow Account.

6.6.                 
Exclusive Remedy. The Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to claims for
money damages, other than claims arising from intentional misrepresentation or fraud on the part of a Party hereto in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation
set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions
set forth in this Section 6. Nothing in this Section 6.6 shall limit any Person's right to seek and obtain any equitable relief
to which any Person shall be entitled, or to seek any remedy on account of any intentional misrepresentation or fraud by any Party
hereto.

expressly set forth in this Agreement. In addition, the Parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable
expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations; and all Parties to this Agreement specifically

hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.
