Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period except as set forth in the first paragraph of this
definition. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate or other rate shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually

 Section 1.05 Acts of Holders. 

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to
be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective 

  
 47 

 
when such instrument or instruments or record or both are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a
writing appointing any such agent, or the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner
provided in this Section 1.05.

 (e) The Issuer may
set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or take any other act, or to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or

of a Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note through such depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices. 

(h) The Issuer may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in
any Global Note held by DTC entitled under the procedures of such depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in
this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request,

  
 48 

 
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 90 days after such record date. 
 (i) Within three Business Days following any vote requiring the vote of the Required Holders of Required Debt, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Administrative Agent (and

 ARTICLE 2 

THE NOTES 
 Section 2.01 Form and Dating; Terms. 
 (a) General.
The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. Each Note shall
be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 (b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of
Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (but without, in each case, the Global Note Legend thereon and without the “Schedule of
Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such of the outstanding Notes as shall be specified in the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto and
each shall provide that it shall represent up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or
increased, as applicable, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the
Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof. 
 (c) [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 (d) Terms. The aggregate
principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. 

  
 49 

 The terms and provisions contained in the Notes shall constitute, and are
hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However, to the extent any
provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 The Notes shall be subject to repurchase by the Issuer pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer or a Collateral Asset Sale Offer as provided in Section 4.10 hereof or a Change of Control Offer as provided in
Section 4.14 hereof. The Notes shall not be redeemable other than as provided in Article 3 hereof. 

Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Initial Notes may be created and issued from time to time by the
Issuer without notice to or consent of the Holders and shall be consolidated with and form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes; provided that the
Issuer’s ability to issue Additional Notes shall be subject, among other things, to the Issuer’s compliance with Sections 4.09 and 4.12 hereof. The Notes offered by the Issuer and any Additional Notes subsequently issued under this
Indenture shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Notes” for all purposes under this
Indenture include any Additional Notes that are actually issued. Any Additional Notes shall be issued with the benefit of an indenture supplemental to this Indenture. The Notes are a separate series of debt, but will be treated as a single class
with other series of Required Debt for certain actions and voting as set forth in this Indenture. 
 (e)
Euroclear and Clearstream Procedures Applicable. The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” and the “General Terms and Conditions of
Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream shall be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes that are held by Participants through Euroclear or Clearstream. 

Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. 

At least one Officer shall execute the Notes on behalf of the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note
shall nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose until authenticated substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, by the manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
under this Indenture. 
 On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Issuer
signed by an Officer (an “Issuer Authentication Order”) authenticate and deliver the Initial Notes specified in such Issuer Authentication Order. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an
Issuer Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver any Additional Notes for an aggregate principal amount specified in such Issuer Authentication Order for such Additional Notes. 

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. An authenticating agent
may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders or an
Affiliate of the Issuer. 

  
 50 

 Section 2.03 Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange
(“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (“Note Register”) and of their transfer and
exchange. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent.
The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to any Holder. 
 The Issuer shall
notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuer fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such Paying Agent or Registrar. The
Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Registrar or Paying Agent. 
 The Issuer initially appoints The
Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. 
 The
Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 
 The
Issuer 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, premium, if any,
or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Issuer in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuer at any
time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If the Issuer or a Subsidiary
acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuer, the Trustee shall serve as
Paying Agent for the Notes. 
 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 all Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in
such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes. 
 Section 2.06 Transfer and Exchange. 
 (a) Transfer and
Exchange of Global Notes. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.06, a Global Note may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor
Depositary. A beneficial interest in a Global Note may not be exchanged for a Definitive Note unless (i) the Depositary (x) notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note or (y) has
ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Issuer within 120 days or (ii) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default with

will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures). Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in
Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof. Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note, except for Definitive Notes issued subsequent to any of the preceding events in (i) or (ii) above and pursuant to Section 2.06(c) hereof. A Global Note may not be exchanged for
another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); provided, however, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof. 

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial
interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes shall be subject to restrictions on

well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable: 
 (i) Transfer of
Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note. Beneficial interests in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Restricted Global Note in accordance with
the transfer restrictions set forth in the Private Placement Legend; provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Note may not be made to a
U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person. Beneficial interests in any Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note. No written
orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.06(b)(i). 
 (ii) All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes. In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests that are not subject to
Section 2.06(b)(i) hereof, the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar either (A) both (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance with the
Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures containing information regarding the Participant account to be credited with such increase or (B) both (1) a written order from a Participant or an Indirect Participant given to the Depositary in accordance
with the Applicable Procedures directing the Depositary to cause to be issued a Definitive Note of the same series in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given by the Depositary to the
Registrar containing information regarding the Person in whose name such Definitive Note shall be registered to effect the transfer or exchange referred to in (1) above. Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of
beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note(s) pursuant to Section 2.06(h) hereof.

  
 52 

 (iii) Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another
Restricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the
requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof and the Registrar receives the following: 
 (A)
if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (1) thereof; or

 (B) if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a
Regulation S Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form of Exhibit B hereto, including the certifications in item (2) thereof. 

(iv) Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests
in an Unrestricted Global Note. A beneficial interest in any Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form
of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.06(b)(ii) hereof and the Registrar receives the following: 

(1) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to exchange such
beneficial interest for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note of the same series, a certificate from such Holder substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, including the certifications in item (1)(a) thereof; or

 (2) if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note proposes to
transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note of the same series, a certificate from such holder in the form of Exhibit B hereto,
including the certifications in item (4) thereof; 
 and if the Registrar so requests or if the Applicable Procedures so
require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Private Placement
Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act. 
 If any such transfer
is effected at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate one or more
Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred pursuant to this provision. 

Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Persons who take delivery
thereof in the form of, a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Note.

 (h) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for Definitive Notes or a particular Global Note has
been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Note shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11 hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any
beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount of Notes represented by such
Global Note shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or
transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the
Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
 (i) General Provisions Relating to
Transfers and Exchanges. 
 (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the
Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrar’s request. 

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder
of a Definitive Note for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or
similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.07, 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.14 and 9.05 hereof). 
 (iii) Neither the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part. 
 (iv) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of
transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such
registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (v) The Issuer shall not be required (A) to issue,
to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of

  
 60 

 
business on the day of selection; (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part; or (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

(vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and
the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and
none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

(vii) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Issuer
designated pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or
denominations of a like aggregate principal amount. 
 (viii) At the option of the Holder, Notes
may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so
surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and mail or otherwise deliver in accordance with the procedures of DTC, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which the Holder making the exchange is
entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof. 
 (ix) All
certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile. 

Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Registrar or the Issuer and the Trustee receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the ownership and destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If
required by the Trustee or the Issuer, an indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that
any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement Note is a contractual obligation of the Issuer and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes. 

The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those
delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in
Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer holds the Note. 

  
 61 

 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 
 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue. 

If the Paying Agent (other than the Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date or
maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 

Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 

In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or
consent, any Notes owned by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer, shall be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or
consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned, shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee
the pledgee’s right to deliver any such direction, waiver or consent with respect to the Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor. 

Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an
Issuer Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 

Holders and beneficial holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded
to Holders, or beneficial holders, respectively, of Notes under this Indenture. 
 Section 2.11
Cancellation. 
 The Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar
and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes
surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes
shall be delivered to the Issuer upon the Issuer’s written request. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest. 

If the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner
plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer shall
notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest 

  
 62 

 
proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to
be paid in respect of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
such defaulted interest as provided in this Section 2.12. The Trustee shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date shall be less than 10 days prior to the
related payment date for such defaulted interest. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the
name and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail or cause to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder a notice at his or her address as it appears in the Note Register that states the special record date, the related payment date and
the amount of such interest to be paid. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for
greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note.

 Section 2.13 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. 

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall
use CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in
any notice of 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 Issuer shall as promptly as
practicable notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers. 
 ARTICLE 3

to be mailed to Holders pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Notes and/or Section of this Indenture

select the Notes to be redeemed or purchased (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed, (b) on a
pro rata basis to the extent practicable or (c) by lot or such similar method in accordance with the procedures of DTC. 

  
 63 

 (b) In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular
Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

 (c) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase
and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no
Notes of $2,000 or less may be redeemed in part, except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof,
shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 

Section 3.03 Notice of Redemption. 

Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, notices of redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least
30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC, except that notices of redemption may be
mailed or delivered more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 12 hereof. Except as set forth in Sections 3.04 and 3.07(b) hereof, notices of redemption may not be
conditional. 
 The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 

(a) the Redemption Date; 
 (b) the redemption price; 
 (c) if any Note is to be redeemed in
part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note
representing the same indebtedness to the extent not redeemed shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original Note; 
 (d) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 
 (e) that Notes
called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price; 
 (f) that,
unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date; 
 (g) the paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; 

(h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP and/or ISIN number, if any, listed in
such notice or printed on the Notes; and 

  
 64 

 (i) if in connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 3.07(b)
hereof, any condition to such redemption. 
 At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided that the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least five Business Days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant
to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the
preceding paragraph. 
 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is mailed or delivered in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption
become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the redemption price (except as provided for in Sections 3.07(b) and (d) hereof). The notice, if mailed in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been
given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject to Section 3.05 hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption. 

Section 3.05 Deposit of Redemption or Purchase Price. 

Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or
with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuer any money
deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 

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

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Issuer shall issue and, upon receipt of an Issuer
Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent
not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an
Issuer Authentication Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note. 

  
 65 

 Section 3.07 Optional Redemption. 

(a) At any time prior to April 1, 2016, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price

Offering. Notice of any redemption upon any Equity Offerings may be given prior to the redemption thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s option and discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including,
but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering. 
 (c) Except pursuant to clause (a) and
(b) of this Section 3.07, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuer’s option prior to April 1, 2016. 
 (d) From and after April 1, 2016, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth
below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders of record of such Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date if redeemed
during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of each of the years indicated below: 
  

					
	Year	  	Percentage

 Notice of
any redemption may be given prior to the redemption thereof, and any such redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s option and discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. 

(e) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01
through 3.06 hereof. 
 Section 3.08 Mandatory Redemption. 

The Issuer shall not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

  
 66 

 Section 3.09 Offers to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

 (a) In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuer shall be required to commence an Asset
Sale Offer or a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, it shall follow the procedures specified below. 
 (b) The Asset

the Depositary, if appointed by the Issuer, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date; 

(vii) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, the Depositary or the
Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and
a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
 (viii)
that if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other First Lien Obligations surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such First Lien Obligations to be purchased on a pro
rata basis (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.10(b)(1), in the case of an Asset Sale Offer, and Section 4.10(f)(1), in the case of a Collateral Asset Sale Offer) based on the accreted value or principal amount of the
Notes or such First Lien Obligations, as applicable, tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Trustee so that only Notes in denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be purchased);
and 
 (ix) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal

(e) On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful, (1) accept for payment, on a pro
rata basis to the extent necessary and subject to Section 4.10(b)(1) hereof in the case of an Asset Sale Offer or Section 4.10(f)(1) hereof in the case of a Collateral Asset Sale Offer, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof

new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note) in a
principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same indebtedness to the extent not repurchased; provided that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase

after the Issue Date,

the rules and regulations of the Exchange Act with respect to the filing of a Form 10-K by a non-accelerated filer) after the end of each fiscal year, annual reports on Form 10-K, or any successor or comparable form, containing the
information required to be contained therein, or required in such successor or comparable form;

 (b) In the event that any direct or indirect parent company of TCEH is or becomes a
Guarantor of the Notes (including the Parent Guarantor), TCEH may satisfy its obligations under this Section 4.03 with respect to financial information relating to TCEH by furnishing financial information relating to such parent;
provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to TCEH and its Restricted

under the supervision of the signing Officer with a view to determining whether the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to such Officer signing such certificate, that to
the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every condition and covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions,
covenants and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto). 

  
 70

appropriate negotiations or proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 
 Section 4.06 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. 
 The Issuer
and each of the Guarantors covenant (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or
advantage of any such law, and covenant that they shall not, by resort to any such law, 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 has been enacted.

Investments by TCEH and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated shall be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of

(11) hereof; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of TCEH, no more restrictive with respect to such

 79 

 (13) restrictions created in connection with any Receivables
Facility for the benefit of TCEH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, in the good faith determination of TCEH, are necessary or advisable to effect the transactions contemplated under such Receivables Facility; and

 (a) TCEH shall not, and shall not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise (collectively, “incur” and, collectively, an
“incurrence”) with respect to any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), and TCEH shall not issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue any shares of Disqualified Stock or

Indebtedness), issue shares of Disqualified Stock and issue shares of Preferred Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a consolidated basis for TCEH and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ most recently ended four fiscal quarters for which
internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued would have been at least 2.00 to 1.00 determined on a pro
forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, and the
application of proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period; provided, further, that Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors may not incur Indebtedness or issue Disqualified Stock or Preferred

 80 

 (2) [Intentionally Omitted];

following such drawing or incurrence; 
 (6) Indebtedness arising from agreements of TCEH or its
Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary, other than guarantees of
Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or a Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided, however, that such Indebtedness is not reflected on the balance sheet of
TCEH, or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (contingent obligations referred to in a footnote to financial statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet shall not be deemed to be reflected on such balance sheet for purposes of this
clause (6)); 
 (7) Indebtedness of TCEH to a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that
any such Indebtedness owing to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Guarantor is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; provided, further, that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock
or any other event which results in any Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness (except to TCEH or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to be an
incurrence of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (7); 
 (8) Indebtedness of a
Restricted Subsidiary to TCEH or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided that if the Issuer or a Guarantor incurs such Indebtedness to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated

 81 

 (9) shares of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary
issued to TCEH or another Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any other
subsequent transfer of any such shares of Preferred Stock (except to TCEH or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall be deemed in each case to be an issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock not permitted by this clause (9); 

(10) Hedging Obligations; provided that (i) other than in the case of commodity Hedging
Obligations, such Hedging Obligations are not entered into for speculative purposes (as determined by TCEH in its reasonable discretion acting in good faith) and (ii) in the case of speculative commodity Hedging Obligations, such Hedging
Obligations are entered into in the ordinary course of business and are consistent with past practice;

preference, which when aggregated with the principal amount and liquidation preference of all other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock then outstanding and incurred pursuant to this clause (12)(b), does not at any one time
outstanding exceed $1,750.0 million (it being understood that any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred pursuant to this clause (12)(b) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this
clause (12)(b) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes of Section 4.09(a) hereof from and after the first date on which TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary could have incurred such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
under Section 4.09(a) hereof without reliance on this clause (12)(b)); provided, however that on a pro forma basis, together with any amounts incurred and outstanding by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors
pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof and clause (14) of Section 4.09(b) hereof, no more than $1,250.0 million of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock at any one time outstanding and incurred pursuant to this

incurred as permitted under Section 4.09(a) and Sections 4.09(b)(2), (3), (4), (12)(a) and (14) hereof and this clause (13) or any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of TCEH

  
 82 

 
or any Restricted Subsidiary issued to so refund or refinance such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of TCEH or any Restricted Subsidiary including additional Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock incurred to pay premiums (including reasonable tender premiums), defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith (the “Refinancing Indebtedness”) prior to its respective maturity;
provided, however, that such Refinancing Indebtedness: 
 (a) has a Weighted
Average Life to Maturity at the time such Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred which is not less than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock being refunded or refinanced;

 (b) to the extent such Refinancing Indebtedness refinances (i) Indebtedness subordinated
or pari passu to the Notes or any Guarantee thereof, such Refinancing Indebtedness is subordinated or pari passu to the Notes or the Guarantee at least to the same extent as the Indebtedness being refinanced or refunded or
(ii) Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, such Refinancing Indebtedness must be Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, respectively; and 
 (c) shall not include Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of a Subsidiary of TCEH that is not the Issuer or a Guarantor that refinances Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock

clause (13) shall not apply to any refunding or refinancing of any Obligations under Credit Facilities secured by Permitted Liens; provided, further, that with respect to any pollution control revenue bonds or similar

subclause (b) of this clause (13) shall not prohibit the incurrence of Junior Lien Obligations that refinance unsecured Indebtedness; 
 (14) Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of (x) TCEH or a Restricted Subsidiary incurred to finance an acquisition or (y) Persons that are acquired by TCEH or any Restricted
Subsidiary or merged into TCEH or a Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; provided that after giving effect to such acquisition or merger, either 

(a) TCEH would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first sentence of this covenant, or 
 (b) such Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio of TCEH and its Restricted Subsidiaries is greater than immediately prior to such acquisition or merger; 
 provided, however that on a pro forma basis, together with any amounts incurred and outstanding by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof and
Section 4.09(b)(12) hereof, no more than $1,250.0 million of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock at any one time outstanding and incurred pursuant to this clause (14) shall be incurred by Restricted Subsidiaries that are
not Guarantors; 
 (15) Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial

 (16) Indebtedness of TCEH or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries supported by a letter of credit issued pursuant to any Credit Facilities, in a principal amount not in excess of the stated amount of such letter of credit; 

(17) (a) any guarantee by TCEH or a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness or other obligations of any
Restricted Subsidiary, so long as the incurrence of such Indebtedness incurred by such Restricted Subsidiary is permitted under the terms of this Indenture, or (b) any guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of TCEH;
provided that such guarantee is incurred in accordance with Section 4.15 hereof;

(19) Indebtedness consisting of Indebtedness issued by TCEH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
current or former officers, directors and employees thereof, their respective estates, spouses or former spouses, in each case to finance the purchase or redemption of Equity Interests of TCEH or any direct or indirect parent company of TCEH to the
extent described in Section 4.07(b)(4) hereof; and 
 (20) Indebtedness of TCEH or any
Restricted Subsidiary to EFH Corp. or any of its Subsidiaries consistent with past practice in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25.0 million; provided, that at the time of incurring, and after giving effect to, such Indebtedness, no
Default described in Section 6.01(a)(1) and (2) hereof shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and provided, further, that any such Indebtedness owing to an entity that is not a
Guarantor is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes. 
 (c) For purposes of determining
compliance with this Section 4.09: 
 (1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in Sections 4.09(b)(1) through (20) hereof or
is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, TCEH, in its sole discretion, shall classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) and shall only be required to
include the amount and type of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in one of the above clauses; and 
 (2) at the time of incurrence, TCEH will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 4.09(a) and (b) hereof;

 provided that all Indebtedness outstanding under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date will be
treated as incurred under Section 4.09(b)(1) hereof. 
 (d) Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted
value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09.

  
 84 

 (e) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated
restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was
incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause
the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so
long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. 
 The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency
exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.09 to the contrary, TCEH shall not, and shall not permit TCEH Finance or any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness (including
Acquired Indebtedness) that is subordinated or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of TCEH, TCEH Finance or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such
Guarantor’s Guarantee to the extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated to other Indebtedness of TCEH, TCEH Finance or such Guarantor, as the case may be. 

For purposes of this Indenture, (1) Indebtedness that is unsecured is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to
Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured, and (2) Senior Indebtedness is not deemed to be subordinated or junior to any other Senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

 Section 4.10 Asset Sales. 

(a) TCEH shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to consummate, directly or indirectly, an
Asset Sale, unless: 
 (1) TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives
consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by TCEH) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by
TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of: 
 (A) except in an Asset Sale of Collateral, any liabilities (as shown on TCEH’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto) of TCEH or such Restricted
Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or that are owed to TCEH or an Affiliate of TCEH, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and for which TCEH and all of its Restricted Subsidiaries
have been validly released by all applicable creditors in writing; 
 (B) any securities received
by TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale; and 

  
 85 

 (C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by TCEH
or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 5% of
Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in
value, 
 shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this clause (a)(2) and for no other purpose. 

(b) Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale of
Collateral), TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, 
 (1) to
permanently reduce: 
 (A) First Lien Obligations, and to correspondingly reduce commitments with
respect thereto; provided that the Issuer shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the
principal amount thereof) or otherwise by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.10(d) hereof for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the
amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any; 
 (B) Obligations under Senior Indebtedness which
is Secured Indebtedness permitted by this Indenture secured by a Lien on the assets subject to such Asset Sale to the extent that such Indebtedness is required to be repaid upon consummation of such Asset Sale, and to correspondingly reduce
commitments with respect thereto; 
 (C) Obligations under any Existing Notes with a final
maturity (as in effect on the Issue Date) on or prior to October 1, 2020; provided that, at the time of, and after giving effect to, such repurchase, redemption or defeasance, the aggregate amount of Net Proceeds used to repurchase,
redeem or defease such Existing Notes pursuant to this subclause (C) following the Issue Date shall not exceed 3.5% of Total Assets at such time; or 

(D) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than TCEH Finance) that is not a Guarantor, other than
Indebtedness owed to TCEH or another Restricted Subsidiary (or any Affiliate thereof), with the Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale of assets of such Restricted Subsidiary; 

(2) to make (a) an Investment in any one or more businesses; provided that such Investment in
any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in TCEH or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted
Subsidiary, (b) capital expenditures or (c) acquisitions of other assets, in each of (a), (b) and (c), used or useful in a Similar Business; or 

  
 86 

 (3) to make an Investment in (a) any one or more
businesses; provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in TCEH or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such
business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (b) properties or (c) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (a), (b) and (c), replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;

 provided that, in the case of clauses (2) and (3) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a
permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as TCEH, or such other Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds shall be applied to satisfy such
commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) (and reinvest within the later of 450 days from the date of receipt of Net Proceeds and 180 days of receipt of such commitment), and, in the event any
Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”)
within the later of (a) 180 days of such cancellation or termination or (b) the initial 450-day period; provided, further, that if any Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net
Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
Section 4.10(b) hereof, to the extent that regulatory approval is necessary for an asset purchase or investment, or replacement, repair or restoration on any asset or investment, then TCEH or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have an additional
365 days to apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale in accordance with Section 4.10(b) hereof. 
 (d)
Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales (other than Asset Sales of Collateral) that are not invested or applied as provided and within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(b) hereof shall be deemed to constitute “Excess
Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, TCEH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any other
First Lien Obligations, to the holders of such First Lien Obligations (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Notes and such First Lien Obligations that is a minimum of $2,000 or an
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the
closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. TCEH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the date that
Excess Proceeds exceed $200.0 million by mailing or delivering the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. 
 (e) To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such First Lien Obligations tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, TCEH and/or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the First Lien Obligations surrendered by such holders thereof
exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Notes and such First Lien Obligations will be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such First Lien Obligations tendered. Additionally,
TCEH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may, at its/their option, make an Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale at any time after consummation of such Asset Sale; provided that such Asset Sale Offer shall be in an
aggregate amount of not less than $25.0 million. Upon consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, any Net Proceeds not required to be used to purchase Notes shall not be deemed Excess Proceeds and any remaining amounts may be used to make Restricted
Payments to the extent permitted by Section 4.07(b)(16) hereof. 

  
 87 

 (f) Within 450 days after the receipt by TCEH or any Restricted Subsidiary
of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale of Collateral, TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary, at its option, may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, 

(1) to permanently reduce obligations under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities or other First Lien
Obligations (other than the Notes), and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; provided that the Issuer will equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes as provided under Section 3.07 hereof, through
open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or otherwise by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.10(h) for a Collateral Asset Sale Offer) to all
Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any; 
 (2) to make (a) an Investment in any one or more businesses; provided that such Investment in any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in TCEH or another of
its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (b) capital expenditures or (c) acquisitions of other assets, in each of (a),
(b) and (c), used or useful in a Similar Business; provided that such assets are concurrently with their acquisition added to the Collateral to the extent required by the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and the Security Documents; or 

(3) to make an Investment in (a) any one or more businesses; provided that such Investment in
any business is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock and results in TCEH or another of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted
Subsidiary, (b) properties or (c) acquisitions of other assets that, in each of (a), (b) and (c), replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale; provided that such assets are concurrently
with their acquisition added to the Collateral to the extent required by the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and the Security Documents; 
 provided that, in the case of clauses (2) and (3) above, an Acceptable Commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such Acceptable
Commitment, so long as the reinvestment occurs within the later of 450 days from the date of receipt of Net Proceeds and 180 days of receipt of such Acceptable Commitment, and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated
for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into a Second Commitment within the later of (a) 180 days of such cancellation or termination or (b) the initial 450-day
period; provided further, that if any Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds. 

(g) Notwithstanding Section 4.10(f) hereof, to the extent that regulatory approval is necessary for an asset
purchase or investment, or replacement, repair or restoration on any asset or investment, then TCEH or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have an additional 365 days to apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale in accordance with Section 4.10(f)
hereof. 
 (h) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales of Collateral that are not invested or applied as provided and
within the time period set forth in Section 4.10(f) hereof will be deemed to constitute “Collateral Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds exceeds $200.0 million, TCEH and/or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries shall make an offer to all Holders of the Notes and, if required or permitted by the terms of any other First Lien Obligations, to the holders of such other First Lien Obligations (a “Collateral Asset Sale Offer”), to
purchase the maximum aggregate principal 

  
 88 

 
amount of the Notes and such First Lien Obligations that is a minimum of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Collateral Excess Proceeds at
an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Indenture and
the other documents governing the applicable First Lien Obligations. TCEH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall commence a Collateral Asset Sale Offer with respect to Collateral Excess Proceeds within 10 Business Days after the date that
Collateral Excess Proceeds exceed $200.0 million by mailing or delivering the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. 

(i) To the extent that the aggregate amount of First Lien Obligations and Notes tendered pursuant to a Collateral Asset
Sale Offer is less than the Collateral Excess Proceeds, TCEH and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Collateral Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Indenture. If the
aggregate principal amount of Notes or First Lien Obligations surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Collateral Excess Proceeds, the Notes and such First Lien Obligations will be purchased on a pro rata basis based
on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such First Lien Obligations tendered. Additionally, TCEH may, at its option, make a Collateral Asset Sale Offer using proceeds from any Asset Sale of Collateral at any time after consummation
of such Asset Sale; provided that such Collateral Asset Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25.0 million. Upon consummation of such Collateral Asset Sale Offer, any Net Proceeds not required to be used to purchase
First Lien Obligations and Notes shall not be deemed Collateral Excess Proceeds and TCEH and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use any remaining Net Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture.

 (j) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 4.10, the holder of such
Net Proceeds may apply such Net Proceeds temporarily to reduce Indebtedness outstanding under a revolving credit facility or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture; provided, however, that any Net
Proceeds that represent proceeds of Collateral shall be deposited and held in a collateral account that is subject to a perfected security interest for the benefit of the Holders of First Lien Obligations and Junior Lien Obligations pending final
application thereof in accordance with this Section 4.10. 
 (k) The Issuer 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 or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer or a
Collateral Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed
to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. 
 Section 4.11 Limitation on
Transactions with Affiliates. 
 (a) TCEH shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance
or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of TCEH (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $25.0 million, unless: 

(1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to TCEH or its relevant
Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; and 

  
 89 

 (2) TCEH delivers to the Trustee with respect to any
Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $50.0 million, a resolution adopted by the majority of the board of directors of TCEH approving such Affiliate

business;

advisory fees and related expenses to the Investors pursuant to the Sponsor Management Agreement (plus any unpaid management, consulting, monitoring and advisory fees and related expenses accrued in any prior year) and the termination fees pursuant
to the Sponsor Management Agreement, in each case as in effect on the Issue Date, or any amendment thereto (so long as any such amendment is not disadvantageous in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of TCEH to the Holders when taken
as a whole as compared to the Sponsor Management Agreement in effect on the Issue Date); 
 (4)
the payment of reasonable and customary fees paid to, and indemnities provided for the benefit of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of TCEH, any of its direct or indirect parent companies or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

delivers to the Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable to TCEH or
its relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by TCEH or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis; 

(6) any agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date, or any amendment thereto (so long as any such
amendment is not disadvantageous to the Holders when taken as a whole as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the Issue Date);

purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issue Date and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by TCEH or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations under any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (7) to the extent that the terms of any
such amendment or new agreement are not otherwise disadvantageous to the Holders when taken as a whole; 

  
 90 

 (8) the Transactions (including any payments made after the
Closing Date in respect of the Issuer’s and its Subsidiaries’ long-term incentive plan or in respect of tax gross-ups and other deferred compensation) and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Transactions; 

(9) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services,
including EFH Corp. and its subsidiaries, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to TCEH and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the
Board of Directors of TCEH or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party; 

(10) the issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of TCEH to any Permitted Holder or

fiscal year does not exceed the amount that TCEH, its Restricted Subsidiaries and its Unrestricted Subsidiaries (to the extent of amounts received from Unrestricted Subsidiaries) would be required to pay in respect of foreign, federal, state and
local taxes for such fiscal year were TCEH and its Subsidiaries (to the extent described above) to pay such taxes separately from any such parent entity. 
 Section 4.12 Limitation on Liens. 
 TCEH shall not, and
shall not permit TCEH Finance or any Subsidiary Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) that secures obligations under any Indebtedness or any related guarantee, on any asset
or property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless (1) in the case of Liens securing any Indebtedness that does not constitute First Lien

  
 91 

 
Obligations, the Notes and related Subsidiary Guarantees are secured by a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such Liens or (2) in all other cases, the
Notes or the related Subsidiary Guarantees are equally and ratably secured, except that the foregoing shall not apply to (a) Liens securing the TCEH Second Lien Notes and the related subsidiary guarantees, (b) Liens securing Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred under Credit Facilities, including the TCEH Second Lien Notes and the related subsidiary guarantees, to the extent not included under the preceding clause (a), and the Notes and the related Subsidiary Guarantees, and
including any letter of credit relating thereto, that was permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(b)(1) hereof and (c) Liens incurred to secure Obligations in respect of any Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09 hereof; provided that, with respect to Liens securing Obligations permitted under this clause (c), at the time of incurrence and after giving pro forma effect thereto, the
Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such event for which such calculation is being made shall occur, in
each case with such pro forma adjustments to Indebtedness and EBITDA as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would be no
greater than 5.0 to 1.0; and provided further that with respect to Liens permitted under the preceding clause (b) or (c) that secure Obligations on a basis junior to the First Lien Obligations and senior to the Junior Lien
Obligations, the holders of such Obligations (or a representative thereof on behalf of such holders) shall have entered into a customary intercreditor agreement providing that the Liens securing such Obligations rank junior to the First Lien
Obligations. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, TCEH shall not, and shall not permit TCEH Finance or any Subsidiary Guarantor to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on the Collateral (other than Permitted Liens, excluding any Permitted Lien (A) described in either clause (6) or clause (18) of the definition of Permitted
Liens to the extent such Lien described in clause (6) or clause (18) secures Indebtedness incurred under Section 4.09(b)(12) hereof or (B) described in clause (10) of the definition of Permitted Liens to the extent such Lien
secures Indebtedness of TCEH, TCEH Finance or any Subsidiary Guarantor owed to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor), or any income or profits therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom except: 

(1) Liens on the Collateral securing up to $24,650.0 million in aggregate principal amount of First Lien Obligations
(including the Notes, any Additional Notes, the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, any guarantees of the foregoing and any other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 4.09 hereof; provided that such amount shall be (x) reduced by
an amount equal to the amount, without duplication, of (A) First Lien Obligations repaid with proceeds of Asset Sales of Collateral in accordance with Section 4.10 hereof, (B) any mandatory prepayments made under the TCEH Senior
Secured Facilities after the Issue Date resulting from the application of “excess cash flow” proceeds pursuant to the terms of the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and (C) any mandatory “amortization” repayments actually made
pursuant to the terms of the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities after the Issue Date unless such “amortization” repayment is funded from First Lien Obligations, and (y) increased, to the extent any First Lien Obligations permitted to be
secured by this clause (1) are refinanced with First Lien Obligations, by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing; and 

(2) Liens on the Collateral securing Junior Lien Obligations or other Obligations secured on a basis senior to the Junior
Lien Obligations that are not First Lien Obligations (including the TCEH Second Lien Notes, any guarantees of the foregoing and/or other Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 4.09 hereof; 

  
 92 

 provided that (x) with respect to Liens permitted under the preceding clause
(1) that secure First Lien Obligations, the holders of such First Lien Obligations (or a representative thereof on behalf of such holders) shall have executed and delivered joinder agreements (as set forth in the First Lien Intercreditor
Agreement and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement), (y) with respect to Liens permitted under the preceding clause (2) that secure Obligations on a basis junior to the First Lien Obligations and senior to the Junior Lien Obligations,
the holders of such Obligations (or a representative thereof on behalf of such holders) shall have entered into a customary intercreditor agreement providing that the Liens securing such Obligations rank junior to the First Lien Obligations and
(z) with respect to Liens permitted under the preceding clause (2) that secure Junior Lien Obligations, the holders of such Junior Lien Obligations (or a representative thereof on behalf of such holders) shall have executed and delivered a
joinder agreement (as set forth in the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement). 
 Any Lien which is granted to
secure the Notes under this Section 4.12 shall be discharged at the same time as the discharge of the Lien (other than through the exercise of remedies with respect thereto) that gave rise to the obligation to so secure the Notes. 

Section 4.13 Corporate Existence. 

Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuer shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in
full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to
time) of the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to preserve any such
right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Issuer in good faith shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of
the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 Section 4.14 Offer to Repurchase upon Change
of Control. 
 (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed or
otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 hereof and shall redeem all of the outstanding Notes pursuant thereto, the Issuer shall
make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount
thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days
following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register with a copy to
the Trustee or otherwise delivered in accordance with the procedures of DTC, with the following information: 
 (1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.14 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer shall be accepted for payment by the
Issuer; 
 (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days
nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 

  
 93 

 (3) that any Note not properly tendered shall remain
outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) that unless the Issuer defaults in the
payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be
required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of
business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (6) that
Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes; provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the expiration date of the Change of
Control Offer, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election
to have such Notes purchased; 
 (7) that the Holders whose Notes are being repurchased only in
part shall be issued new Notes and such new Notes shall be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; the unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof; and 
 (8) the other instructions, as determined by TCEH, consistent with this
Section 4.14, that a Holder must follow. 
 Any proceeds received by the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary from a sale, conveyance or disposition of Collateral that constitutes a Change of Control shall be subject to a perfected security interest for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and the other First Lien Obligations until
consummation of the Change of Control Offer pursuant to this Section 4.14. 
 The notice, if mailed in a
manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. If (a) notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder
receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice
without defect. The Issuer 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 or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase
of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.14, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and
regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.14 by virtue thereof. 
 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by law, 
 (A) accept for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 

  
 94 

 (B) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the
aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and 

(C) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with
an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer. 
 (c) The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder 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 that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 (d) The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if 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 Section 4.14 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes
validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 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 the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. 
 (e)
Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.14, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.14 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof. 

Section 4.15 Limitation on Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries 

TCEH shall not permit any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries (and non-Wholly-Owned
Subsidiaries if such non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries guarantee other capital markets debt securities of TCEH, TCEH Finance or any Subsidiary Guarantor), other than TCEH Finance, a Subsidiary Guarantor, a Foreign Subsidiary or a Receivables Subsidiary,
to guarantee the payment of any Indebtedness of TCEH, TCEH Finance or any Subsidiary Guarantor unless: 
 (1) such Restricted Subsidiary within 30 days executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, providing for a Guarantee by
such Restricted Subsidiary, except that with respect to a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor: 
 (a) if the Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee is subordinated in right of payment to such Indebtedness, the Guarantee under the supplemental indenture shall be subordinated to such Restricted
Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to such Indebtedness substantially to the same extent as the Notes are subordinated to such Indebtedness; and 

(b) if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such
Guarantor’s Guarantee, any such guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Guarantee substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the
Notes or such Guarantor’s Guarantee; and 
 (2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives, and shall
not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against TCEH or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted
Subsidiary under its Guarantee; 

  
 95 

 provided that this Section 4.15 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 connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. 

Section 4.16 Limitations on Business Activities of TCEH Finance. 

TCEH Finance shall not hold assets, become liable for any obligations or engage in any business activities;
provided that it may be a co-obligor with respect to the Notes, any Additional Notes or any other Indebtedness issued by TCEH, and may engage in any activities directly related thereto or necessary in connection therewith. TCEH Finance shall
be a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of TCEH at all times. 
 Section 4.17 Maintenance of Properties and
Insurance.

of its or their business, as applicable, kept in good working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear expected), (2) pay all real estates and other taxes with respect to the Collateral except where the failure to do so could not reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the value of such Collateral or materially impair their use in the operation of its or their business, as applicable and (3) maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies,
insurance in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily maintained by companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations, with each copy of, or certificate as to coverage under, such required

under each casualty insurance policy and as “additional insured” under each liability insurance policy. 
 Section 4.18 Future Subsidiary Grantors.

and execute and deliver within 30 days such Security Documents, supplements, joinders or amendments thereto (in substantially the same form as those executed and delivered with respect to the Collateral) and certificates and opinions of counsel (to
the extent, and substantially in the form, delivered on the Issue Date, if any, or delivered in connection with the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities (but no greater scope)) as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected first-priority
security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in all of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s properties and assets that constitute Collateral as security for the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees and as may be necessary to have such property or asset
added to the applicable Collateral as required under the Security Documents and this Indenture, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such properties and assets to the same extent and
with the same force and effect. 
 Section 4.19 Payment for Consent. 

The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to
be paid any cash consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of the Required Debt for any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or the Security Documents unless such consideration is
offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the Required Debt that are QIBs and that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01 Events of Default.

 (a) An “Event of Default” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events

failure by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary for 60 days after receipt of written notice given by the Trustee or the Required Holders, of not less than 30% in principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt to comply with any of its
obligations, covenants or agreements (other than a default referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above) contained in this Indenture, the Notes or the Security Documents relating to the Notes; 

(4) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is
secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by TCEH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the payment of which is guaranteed by TCEH or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than Indebtedness owed to TCEH or a Restricted
Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after the issuance of the Notes, if both: 
 (a) such default either results from the failure to pay any principal of such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or relates to an obligation
other than the obligation to pay principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; and 

(b) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such
Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregate $250.0 million or more at any one time outstanding;

 (5) failure by the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted

judgment becomes final, and in the event such judgment is covered by insurance, an enforcement proceeding has been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or decree which is not promptly stayed; 

  
 100

 (6) the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group
of Restricted Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), in a proceeding in which the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), is to be
adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; 
 (ii) appoints a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), or for all or substantially all of the property of the Issuer or

Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary (or any group
of Restricted Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), as the case may be, denies that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives notice to such effect, other than by reason of the termination of this
Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture; or 
 (9) with
respect to Collateral having a fair market value in excess of $250.0 million in the aggregate, any security interest and Lien purported to be created by any Security Document with respect to the Collateral (a) ceases to be in full force and
effect, (b) ceases to give the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the Liens, rights, powers and 

  
 101

 
privileges purported to be created and granted thereby (including a perfected first-priority security interest in and Lien on, all of the Collateral thereunder) in favor of the Collateral Agent,
or (c) is asserted by TCEH or a Subsidiary Guarantor not to be, a valid, perfected, first-priority (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture or the Security Documents) security interest in or Lien on the Collateral covered
thereby. 
 (b) In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (4) of Section 6.01(a)
hereof, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration of the Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or
the Holders, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose: 
 (1) the Indebtedness or
guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged; or 
 (2) the Holders
thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default; or 
 (3) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured. 
 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
 If any Event of Default (other
than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(6) or (7) hereof) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture, the Trustee or the Required Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt may
declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and interest shall
be due and payable immediately. The Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines acceleration is not in the best interest of the Holders of the Notes.

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising under Sections 6.01(a)(6) or
(7) hereof, the principal, premium, if any, and interest on all outstanding Notes shall be due and payable immediately without further action or notice. 
 The Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders of all of the Required Debt waive any
existing Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note (held by a non consenting Holder) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the
Notes and its consequences (so long as such rescission would not conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 
 Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 
 If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the
proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All
remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

  
 102

 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

The Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt by written notice to the
Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders of all of the Required Debt waive any existing Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a
non-consenting Holder and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences (provided such rescission would not conflict with any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction); provided, subject to Section 6.02
hereof, that such Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Required Debt may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver,
such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent
thereon. 
 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

The Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt 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. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or
that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of a Note or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 
 Subject to
Section 6.07 hereof, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 
 (2) Required Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 

(3) Holders of the Notes have offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it
against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (4) the Trustee has not complied with such request
within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (5)
Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 

A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a
preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 

  
 103

 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of
principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer, a Collateral Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer), 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 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 
 If an Event of
Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(1) or (2) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
 Section 6.09
Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 
 If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in
such proceedings, the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding has been instituted. 
 Section 6.10 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in
Section 2.07 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 6.11 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

 No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon
any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from
time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

Section 6.12 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to
the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes including the Guarantors), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to 

  
 104

 
participate as a member in any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter and to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such
claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the
Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any
such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of
the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any Plan of
Reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any Plan of Reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 Section 6.13 Priorities. 
 If the Trustee collects any money
or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
 (i) to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee
and the costs and expenses of collection; 
 (ii) to Holders of Notes 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 

(iii) to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct including a
Guarantor, if applicable. 
 The Trustee may fix a Record Date and payment date for any payment to Holders of
Notes pursuant to this Section 6.13. 
 Section 6.14 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 a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.14 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a
Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

 TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01 Duties of Trustee. 

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

(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, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any
provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of
Section 7.01(b) hereof;

made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it is proved in a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05 hereof.

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee
shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Issuer and shall incur no liability or
additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 
 (b) Before the Trustee acts or
refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of
Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys
and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent or attorney appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 

(e) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Issuer
shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Issuer. 
 (f) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall
require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds
for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it. 
 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which
is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. Delivery of reports to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof shall not constitute
actual knowledge of, or notice to, the Trustee of the information contained therein. 
 (h) In no event shall
the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or
damage and regardless of the form of action. 
 (i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits
given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Collateral Agent and
each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder.

 Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. 

The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with
the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent may do
the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.10 hereof. 
 Section 7.04
Trustee’s Disclaimer. 
 The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to
the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuer or upon the Issuer’s direction under any provision of this Indenture,
it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in
connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 
 Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. 
 If a Default occurs and
is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default relating to the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on
any Note, the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes. The
Trustee shall not be deemed to know of any Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee. 
 Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes. 

Within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, and for so
long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall mail to the Holders of the Notes a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) as if it were applicable to this Indenture (but if no
event described in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(a) has occurred within the twelve months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2) as if it
were applicable to this Indenture. The Trustee shall also transmit by mail all reports as required by Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c) as if it were applicable to this Indenture. 

A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes shall be mailed to the Issuer and filed with the
SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with Trust Indenture Act Section 313(d) as if it were applicable to this Indenture. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock
exchange. 
 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. 

The Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for its
acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Issuer and the
Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall reimburse the 

  
 108

 
Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the
reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
 The Issuer and
the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold the Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance
or administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) or defending itself against any
claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Issuer or any Guarantor, or liability in connective with the acceptance, exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify the Issuer promptly of any claim for which
it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel. The Issuer need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 

The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 4.12 hereof, to secure the payment obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in
trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(6) or (7) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including
the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Trust Indenture Act Section 313(b)(2) as if it were applicable to this Indenture to the extent applicable. 

Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. 

A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the
successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee may resign at any time by giving 30 days prior written notice of such resignation to the Issuer and be discharged from the trust hereby created by
so notifying the Issuer. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer in writing. The Issuer may remove the Trustee if: 

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 

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

 (d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

  
 109

 If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of
Trustee for any reason, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint a successor Trustee to
replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer. 
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60
days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the Issuer’s expense), the Issuer or the Holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been
a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer.
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 a notice of its
succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided, all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in
Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08, the Issuer’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust
business to, another corporation, the successor corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 
 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. 
 There shall at
all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Sections 310(a)(1),
(2) and (5) as if it were applicable to this Indenture. 
 Section 7.11 [Intentionally
Omitted]. 
 ARTICLE 8 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 Section 8.01 Option
to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to
have either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article 8. 

  
 110

 Section 8.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the
Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and Guarantees on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which
shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under
such Notes and this Indenture including that of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments in
respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04 hereof; 

(b) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of such Notes,
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; 
 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith; and 

(d) this Section 8.02. 
 Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03 hereof. 

Section 8.03 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the
Issuer and the Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11,
4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16, 4.17, 4.18 and 4.19 hereof and Sections 5.01(a)(3) and (4), Sections 5.01(c) and 5.01(d) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are
satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in
connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant
Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuer may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of
any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 8.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.04, 6.01(a)(3), 6.01(a)(4), 6.01(a)(5), 6.01(a)(6) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries or groups of Restricted Subsidiaries that are
Significant Subsidiaries), 6.01(a)(7) (solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries or groups of Restricted Subsidiaries that are Significant Subsidiaries) and 6.01(a)(8) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default. 

  
 111

 Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

Notes:

Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest due on the Notes on the stated maturity date or on the redemption date, as the case may be, of such principal, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes and the Issuer must specify whether such Notes are being defeased to

 (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuer

(a) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the United States Internal Revenue
Service a ruling, or 
 (b) 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,
subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as applicable, 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; 
 (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and
exclusions, the Holders of the Notes 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 such tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times
as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (4) no Default

continuing on the date of such deposit; 
 (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall
not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer
or any Guarantor is bound (other than that resulting from 

  
 112

 
borrowing funds to be applied to make the deposit required to effect such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in
each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 
 (6) the Issuer shall have delivered
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of Section 547 of the
Bankruptcy Code;

Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuer or any Guarantor or others; and

(which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

 The Collateral shall be released from the Lien securing the Notes, as provided under Section 11.07
hereof, upon a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with this Article 8. 
 Section 8.05
Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject
to Section 8.06 hereof, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant
to Section 8.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Issuer or a Guarantor acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest, but such money need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Issuer shall pay and indemnify the
Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or
other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
 Anything in this
Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request of the Issuer any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the
opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount
thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuer. 
 Subject to any
applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years
after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the 

  
 113

 
Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with
respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 

Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture
and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or
8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided that if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the
Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees or any Security Document, at any time after the Issue Date, without the consent of any Holder to:

 (3) comply with Section 5.01 hereof; 
 (4)
provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders;

Issuer or any Guarantor;

thereunder pursuant to the requirements thereof;

 114

 (11) conform the text of this Indenture, the Guarantees, the
Notes or any Security Document to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum to the extent that such provision in the “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a
provision of this Indenture, the Guarantees, the Notes or any Security Document; 
 (12) make any
amendment to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including, without limitation, to facilitate the issuance and administration of the Notes; provided, however,
that (i) compliance with this Indenture as so amended would not result in Notes being transferred in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable securities law and (ii) such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the
rights of Holders to transfer Notes; 
 (13) mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant any other
Lien in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, as security for the payment and performance of all or any portion of the Obligations, in any property or assets; or 

(14) provide for the accession or succession of any parties to the Security Documents (and other
amendments that are administrative or ministerial in nature) in connection with an amendment, renewal, extension, substitution, refinancing, restructuring, replacement, supplementing or other modification from time to time of any agreement or action
that is not prohibited by this Indenture, including to add any additional secured parties to the extent not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture at any time after the Issue Date, without the consent of any Holder,
to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes or additional series of debt securities of the Issuer constituting Required Debt in accordance with this Indenture; provided that such Additional Notes or additional series of debt securities
are issued in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, including those described in Sections 4.09 and 4.12 hereof, and such amendments or supplements are limited to changes necessary or appropriate in order to issue such Additional Notes
under this Indenture. 
 Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors
authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Sections 7.02 and 13.04 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of
any amended or supplemental indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such
amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the addition of a Guarantor under this
Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit D hereto, and delivery of an Officer’s Certificate. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

(a) Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the Security Documents relating to the Notes and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement with the consent of the Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt
including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Required Debt, and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a

  
 115

 
Default or Event of Default in the interest on, premium, if any, or the principal on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with
any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees, any Security Document relating to the Notes or the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement may be waived with the consent of the Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of
the outstanding Required Debt, other than Required Debt beneficially owned by TCEH or its Affiliates (including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Required Debt). Section 2.08 hereof
and Section 2.09 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for the purposes of this Section 9.02. 
 Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of
evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Required Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Required Debt as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Sections 7.02
and 13.04 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of the outstanding Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be
sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under
this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall
not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. 

(b) Without the consent of each affected Holder of Notes, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not
(with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
 (1) reduce the principal amount
of such Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the
principal of or change the fixed final maturity of any such Note or alter or waive the provisions with respect to the redemption of such Notes (for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions contained in and relating to Sections 3.09, 4.10 and 4.14
hereof are not redemptions of such Notes); 
 (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for
payment of interest on any Note; 
 (4) 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 Required Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such
acceleration, or in respect of a covenant or provision contained in this Indenture or any Guarantee which cannot be amended or modified without the consent of all Holders; 

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

  
 116

 (6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture
relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; 
 (7) make any change in these amendment and waiver provisions; 
 (8) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, or interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on
or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; 
 (9) make any change to or modify the ranking
provisions of this Indenture or the Notes that would adversely affect the Holders; or 
 (10)
except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, modify the Guarantees of any Significant Subsidiary in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes. 
 (c) Without the consent of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt then outstanding, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not modify any Security Document relating to the
Notes or the provisions of this Indenture dealing with the Security Documents or application of trust moneys in any manner materially adverse to the Holders other than in accordance with this Indenture and the Security Documents. No amendment,
supplement or waiver may modify the Security Documents to release Collateral without the consent of at least 75% (or, in the case of a release of property having an aggregate fair market value not to exceed $1.0 billion after the Issue Date, a
majority) in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt then outstanding. 
 Section 9.03 [Intentionally
Omitted]. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent
by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or
subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. Except as provided in the last paragraph of
Section 9.02 hereof, an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a Record Date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, or waiver. If a Record Date is fixed, then,
notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such Record Date (or their duly designated proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement, or waiver or to revoke any consent
previously given, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such Record Date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such Record Date unless the consent of the requisite number of Holders has been
obtained. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter
authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Issuer Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

  
 117

 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not
affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 
 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign
Amendments, etc. 
 The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this
Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amendment, supplement or waiver until the Board of Directors approves it. In executing
any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.04 hereof, an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Issuer and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required for the
Trustee to execute any amendment or supplement adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 10 

GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01 Guarantee. 
 Subject to this Article 10,
each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and
enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of, interest, premium, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in
full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed
in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be
jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
 The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 

  
 118

 Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 10.01. 
 If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the
Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 

Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of
any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity
of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for
the purpose of this Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantees. 

Each Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or
against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or
any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 

In case any provision of any Guarantee 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. 
 The
Guarantee issued by any Guarantor shall be a senior obligation of such Guarantor. The Guarantees shall rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future Indebtedness of the Guarantor, except to the extent such Indebtedness is expressly
subordinated to the Obligations arising under a Guarantee, in which case the obligations of a Guarantor under such Guarantee will rank senior in right of payment to such Indebtedness. 

Each payment to be made by a Guarantor in respect of its Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction
or diminution of any kind or nature. 
 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties
that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent
applicable to any Guarantee. To 

  
 119

 
effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall,
after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or
on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under
applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its 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 10.03 Execution and Delivery. 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that this Indenture shall
be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer or person holding an equivalent title. 
 Each Guarantor
hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. 

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the
Note, the Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the
authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 
 If required by Section 4.15 hereof, the Issuer shall cause any newly created or acquired Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the provisions of Section 4.15 hereof and this Article 10, to
the extent applicable. 
 Section 10.04 Subrogation. 

Each Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders of Notes against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by
any Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.01 hereof; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Guarantor shall be entitled to enforce or receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such
right of subrogation until all amounts then due and payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full. 
 Section 10.05 Benefits Acknowledged. 
 Each Guarantor
acknowledges that it shall receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to its Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such
benefits. 

  
 120

 Section 10.06 Release of Guarantees. 

A Guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged, and no further
action by such Guarantor, the Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee, upon: 
 (1) (a) any sale, exchange or transfer (by merger, wind-up, consolidation or otherwise) of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (including any sale, exchange or transfer), after which the applicable
Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or all or substantially all the assets of such Guarantor which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

(b) the release or discharge of the guarantee under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities or of the guarantee
by such Guarantor that resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee; 

(c) the designation of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in
compliance with Section 4.07 hereof and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” hereunder; or 
 (d) the exercise by the Issuer of its Legal Defeasance option or Covenant Defeasance option in accordance with Article 8 hereof or the Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture being discharged
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and 
 (2) such Guarantor delivering to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with. 

ARTICLE 11 

COLLATERAL AND SECURITY 
 Section 11.01 The Collateral. 
 (a) The due and punctual
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Guarantees thereof when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an Interest Payment Date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption or otherwise,
interest on the overdue principal of and interest (to the extent permitted by law), if any, on the Notes and the Guarantees thereof and performance of all other Obligations under this Indenture, including, without limitation, the Obligations of the
Issuer set forth in Section 7.07 herein, and the Notes and the Guarantees thereof and the Security Documents, shall be secured by First-Priority Liens, on the Collateral (subject to Permitted Liens), as provided in the Security Documents which
TCEH and the Guarantors, as the case may be, have entered into simultaneously with the execution of this Indenture or may hereafter enter into as required or permitted by this Indenture, the Security Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor
Agreement. All Security Documents shall be subject to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) TCEH and the Guarantors hereby appoint the Collateral Agent to act as collateral agent under this Indenture, the
Security Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and agree that the Collateral Agent shall hold the Collateral in trust for the benefit of all of the Holders, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, in each case pursuant to the terms of
the Security Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, and the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and deliver any Security Documents that are required in connection with the Notes
and Guarantees. 
 (c) Each Holder, by its acceptance of any Notes and the Guarantees thereof, consents and
agrees to the terms of the Security Documents, and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure) as

  
 121

 
the same may be in effect or as may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into, as applicable, and perform its
obligations and exercise its rights under the Security Documents, and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement in accordance therewith. 

(d) The Trustee and each Holder, by accepting the Notes and the Guarantees thereof, acknowledges that, as more fully set
forth in the Security Documents, and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral as now or hereafter constituted shall be held for the benefit of all the Holders, the Collateral Agent and the
Trustee, and that the Lien of this Indenture and the Security Documents in respect of the Trustee and the Holders is subject to and qualified and limited in all respects by the Security Documents, and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the
Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and actions that may be taken thereunder. 
 Section 11.02 Further
Assurances. 
 (a) TCEH and the Guarantors shall, at their sole expense, take all actions that may be
required, or that the Collateral Agent from time to time may reasonably request, to assure and confirm that the Collateral Agent holds, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the Collateral Agent and the Trustee, duly created, enforceable and
perfected Liens upon the Collateral (including any After-Acquired Property or other property or assets that are acquired or otherwise become Collateral after the Notes are issued), in each case, as contemplated by, and with the First-Priority Lien
required under this Indenture, the Security Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (b) Upon
the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time, TCEH and the Guarantors shall, at their sole expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver such documents and instruments and take such other actions, as may be necessary,
or as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, to create, protect, assure, perfect, transfer and confirm the Liens and benefits intended to be conferred by the Security Documents for the benefit of the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral
Agent, including with respect to after-acquired Collateral. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Article 11, TCEH or a Guarantor, as applicable, shall not be obligated to take any action, execute or deliver any document or instrument if TCEH or a Guarantor, as applicable, was not required to take such action, execute or deliver such
document or instrument under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities. 
 Section 11.03 Impairment of Security
Interest. Neither TCEH nor any of the Guarantors shall take, or knowingly or negligently omit to take any action, which action or omission might or would have the result of materially impairing the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent and the
Holders of the Notes with respect to the Collateral. Neither TCEH nor any of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall enter into any agreement that requires the proceeds received from any sale of Collateral to be applied to repay, redeem, defease or
otherwise acquire or retire any Indebtedness of any Person, if such agreement is otherwise prohibited by this Indenture, the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or the Second Lien
Intercreditor Agreement. TCEH shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to, at its sole cost and expense, execute and deliver all such agreements and instruments as reasonably necessary, or as the Trustee reasonably requests, to more fully or
accurately describe the assets and property intended to be Collateral or the obligations intended to be secured by the Security Documents. 
 Section 11.04 After-Acquired Property. Upon the acquisition by TCEH or the Subsidiary Guarantors after the Issue Date of After-Acquired Property, TCEH or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall, except
with respect to Excluded Assets, execute and deliver (i) with regard to the Premises, the items 

  
 122

 
described under Section 11.05 on the date such property is pledged to secure the First Lien Obligations (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may permit) and (ii) as soon as
commercially practicable with regarding to any other After-Acquired Property, to the extent required by the Security Documents, any information, documentation or other certificates as may be necessary to vest in the Collateral Agent a perfected
security interest, subject only to Permitted Liens, in such After-Acquired Property (other than Excluded Assets) and to have such After-Acquired Property added to the Collateral, and thereupon all provisions of this Indenture relating to the
Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After-Acquired Property to the same extent and with the same force and effect. In no event shall either TCEH or any Subsidiary Guarantor have to comply with this Section 11.04 to extent that such
After-Acquired Property is automatically perfected by an existing financing statement properly filed against TCEH or any Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 Section 11.05 Real Estate Mortgages and Filings. 
 (a) TCEH
or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, as mortgagee or beneficiary, as applicable, on the Issue Date, fully executed Mortgages in substantially similar form and substance as the Mortgages delivered in
connection with the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and otherwise acceptable to the Collateral Agent’s counsel, including such schedules and provisions as TCEH’s local counsel in the jurisdiction where the relevant Premises are located and
the Collateral Agent’s counsel may, in good faith, determine are necessary to conform such Mortgage to applicable local law, encumbering the Issue Date Premises that also secure the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, and shall cause such Mortgages
to be recorded in the applicable real property records on the Issue Date (provided, however, that if such recording shall not be effectuated on the Issue Date through no fault of TCEH, TCEH shall be deemed in compliance with such obligation
so long as TCEH shall diligently and continuously use its best efforts to cause to be recorded all such Mortgages as soon as reasonably practicable after the Issue Date); and thereafter, with respect to Premises acquired or leased after the Issue
Date, TCEH or a Subsidiary Guarantor shall deliver fully executed Mortgages no later than 120 days (or 180 days in the case of Collateral consisting of mining properties) after such acquisition or lease or, if earlier, the date such property is
pledged to secure the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities or other First Lien Obligations in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture and/or the Security Documents, duly executed by TCEH or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor,
together with satisfactory evidence of the completion (or, with respect to After-Acquired Property only, satisfactory arrangements for the completion) of all recordings and filings of such Mortgages (and payment of any taxes and fees in connection
therewith) as may be necessary to create a valid, perfected Lien (subject to Permitted Liens, but, for the avoidance of doubt, with the Lien of the existing Mortgages securing the Junior Lien Obligations subordinate to the Lien of the Mortgages to
be recorded pursuant to this Indenture with respect to the Notes after giving effect to the Subordination and Priority Agreements) against the properties purported to be covered thereby. With respect to the Issue Date Premises, to the extent that
any Mortgage is not recorded on the Issue Date, TCEH shall, in addition to its obligation to diligently and continuously use its best efforts to pursue the recording of any such Mortgage that has not been recorded on the Issue Date, provide (or
cause to be provided, including reports submitted by TCEH’s counsel and/or the title company handling the recording of the Mortgages) to the Collateral Agent a daily written report, advising of the recording status and anticipated date on which
all such Mortgages shall be recorded, and including reasonable detail of any known problems or conditions that must be solved or satisfied before any such Mortgage shall be recorded; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed
to modify or limit the obligation of TCEH to cause the Mortgages encumbering the Issue Date Premises to be recorded on the Issue Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to After-Acquired Property, TCEH or a
Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, shall not be required to execute and deliver a Mortgage for such After-Acquired Property if TCEH or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, is not required to execute and deliver a Mortgage for such After-Acquired
Property under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities; 

  
 123

 (b) the Collateral Agent shall have received mortgagee title insurance
policies in favor of the Collateral Agent, together with copies of all deeds and title exceptions referenced in the policies that were recorded after the date on which the first lien Mortgage on the applicable Premises, and copies of such deeds and
title exceptions recorded prior to that date as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request (provided that TCEH or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required only to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such prior deeds
and title exceptions delivered to the Collateral Agent), in the forms promulgated by the Texas Department of Insurance or, in the case of any Premises located outside the State of Texas, such corresponding form applicable in such other jurisdiction,
and in form and substance substantially similar to the mortgagee title policies obtained in connection with the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and otherwise acceptable to the Collateral Agent issued in favor of the Collateral Agent, as beneficiary
under each of the Mortgages, which mortgagee title insurance policies also shall be in the form necessary, with respect to any real property purported to be covered by the Mortgage applicable to any such policy, to insure that the interests created
by the Mortgage constitute valid Liens on such property free and clear of all Liens, defects and encumbrances (other than Permitted Liens, but, for the avoidance of doubt, with the Lien of the existing Mortgages securing the Junior Lien Obligations
subordinate to the Lien of the Mortgages to be recorded pursuant to this Indenture with respect to the Notes after giving effect to the Subordination and Priority Agreements), each such title insurance policy to be in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, but in no event more than the least of (i) the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes secured by the applicable Mortgage, (ii) the fair market value of the Premises acquired by TCEH or a
Subsidiary Guarantor, (iii) the maximum amount of title insurance coverage available at the time of issuance of any title insurance policy pursuant to the regulations promulgated by the Texas Department of Insurance (including through
re-insurance arrangements), and (iv) the maximum amount insurers licensed to provide title insurance in the state in which such Premises are situated are willing to insure and re-insure, if applicable, after TCEH and/or the applicable
Subsidiary Guarantor’s commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the maximum available coverage under Section 11.05(b)(i) through Section 11.05(b)(iii) herein, in any event with aggregate coverage allocated among the various title
insurance policies based upon the estimated fair market value of the applicable Premises insured thereby, and such policies shall also include, to the extent available at a commercially reasonable premium, all endorsements delivered in connection
with the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and shall be accompanied by evidence of the payment in full of all premiums thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, (a) TCEH or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, shall not
be obligated to obtain and deliver any mortgagee title insurance policies for any of the Premises if TCEH or a Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, was not required to obtain and deliver policies covering those properties under the TCEH Senior
Secured Facilities (as of the Issue Date) or with respect to After-Acquired Property is not required to obtain and deliver such policies, under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, and (b) with respect to the Issue Date Premises, TCEH or a
Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, shall deliver (or make satisfactory arrangement for the delivery of) mortgagee title insurance policies (I) with respect to the Mortgages encumbering no less than 75% of the fair value (as such term is used
in the most recent consolidated financial statements of TCEH) of the Issue Date Premises, within 90 days after the Issue Date, and (II) with respect to the Mortgages encumbering the remaining Issue Date Premises, within 150 days after the Issue
Date; provided that TCEH (or such applicable Subsidiary Guarantor) shall continue to be in compliance with the requirement in this clause (II) with respect to any Issue Date Premises for which a mortgagee title policy has not been delivered
(or satisfactory arrangements for delivery have not been made) within such 150-day period solely to the extent that the fair value (as such term is used in the most recent consolidated financial statements of TCEH) of such Issue Date Premises
(individually or in the aggregate) for which a mortgagee title policy has not been delivered (or satisfactory arrangements for delivery have not been made) shall be no greater than 5% of the fair value (as such term is used in the most recent
consolidated financial statements of TCEH) of all Issue Date Premises and TCEH (or such applicable Subsidiary Guarantor) uses its reasonable best efforts to deliver any such mortgagee title policy as soon as practicable; 

  
 124

 (c) TCEH shall, or shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to, deliver to the
Collateral Agent, with respect to each of the covered Premises, such filings, surveys (together with any updates or affidavits that the title company may reasonably require as necessary to issue the title insurance policies), local counsel opinions,
flood hazard certificates, landlord agreements and fixture filings, along with such other documents, instruments, certificates and agreements, as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require to create, evidence or perfect a valid Lien (subject to
Permitted Liens; but, for the avoidance of doubt, with the Liens of the Mortgages securing the Junior Lien Obligations subordinate to the Lien of the Mortgages to be recorded pursuant to this Indenture with respect to the Notes after giving effect
to the Subordination and Priority Agreements) on the property subject to each such Mortgage on (x) the Issue Date with respect to the Issue Date Premises, and (y) with respect to Premises acquired or leased after the Issue Date, no later
than the date TCEH or its Subsidiary is required to deliver and record a Mortgage for such Premises in accordance with the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities; and 
 (d) TCEH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Subordination and Priority Agreements to be executed and delivered on or prior to the Issue Date and recorded contemporaneously with the
Mortgages securing the Notes in the relevant real property records to evidence the relative priority of the Mortgages securing the Notes and the Mortgages securing the other First Lien Obligations and the Junior Lien Obligations outstanding as of
the Issue Date. 
 Section 11.06 Relative Rights. 

Nothing in the Junior Lien Documents shall: 

(a) impair, as between TCEH, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Holders of the Notes, the obligation of TCEH and the
Subsidiary Guarantors to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees or any other obligation of TCEH and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture;

 (b) affect the relative rights of Holders of Notes as against any other creditors of TCEH and the Subsidiary
Guarantors (other than holders of other First Lien Obligations or Junior Lien Obligations); 
 (c) restrict the
right of any Holder of Notes to sue for payments that are then due and owing (but not enforce any judgment in respect thereof against any Collateral to the extent specifically prohibited by the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement;

 (d) restrict or prevent any Holder of Notes or holder of other First Lien Obligations, the Collateral Agent
or any other Person from exercising any of its rights or remedies upon a Default or Event of Default not specifically restricted or prohibited by the of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement; or 

(e) restrict or prevent any Holder of Notes or holder of other First Lien Obligations, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent
or any other Person from taking any lawful action in an insolvency or liquidation proceeding not specifically restricted or prohibited by the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 

Section 11.07 Release of Liens on the Collateral. 

(a) The Liens on the Collateral shall be released with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees, as applicable: 

(i) in whole, upon payment in full of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, including premium, if

permitted by this Indenture and the Security Documents, other than a sale or other disposition to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary or a Permitted Investment described in clause (3) of the definition of “Permitted Investments”

Documents, (C) that is otherwise released in accordance with, and as expressly provided for under, this Indenture, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents or (D) the Liens on which are released under the TCEH
Senior Secured Facilities, except in connection with the full and complete discharge of the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities (without a substantially concurrent refinancing thereof); provided, that, in the case of any release described in
clauses (A) through (C) immediately above, the Liens on such asset securing the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, all other First Lien Obligations and all Junior Lien Obligations are simultaneously released, and provided
further, that, in the case of any release described in clause (A) immediately above, the Issuer has delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Collateral Agent certifying that any such sale or other disposition does not violate the
terms of this Indenture, or the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities;

as to property that constitutes less than all or substantially all of the Collateral, with the consent of Holders of at least 75% (or, in the case of a release of property having an aggregate fair market value not to exceed $1.0 billion after the
Issue Date, a majority) in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt then outstanding, voting as a single class, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, Required
Debt; provided, that the Issuer has delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Collateral Agent certifying that any such necessary consents have been obtained and that such release of the Collateral does not violate the terms the TCEH

release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guarantee as set forth in Article 10; provided, that the Liens on such assets securing the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities are simultaneously released, all other First Lien Obligations
and all Junior Lien Obligations, all other First Lien Obligations and all Junior Lien Obligations are simultaneously released. 
 (b) Upon compliance by TCEH or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, with the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 11.07, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall promptly cause to
be released and reconveyed without representation or warranty of any kind to TCEH, or the Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, the released Collateral. Prior to each proposed release, TCEH and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall furnish to the
Trustee and the Collateral Agent all documents required by this Indenture and the Security Documents. 

  
 126

 (c) The release of any Collateral from the terms of the Security Documents
shall not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof or affect the Lien of this Indenture or the Security Documents if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to this Indenture, the
Security Documents or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or upon the termination of this Indenture. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, as and when requested in writing by TCEH or any Guarantor, the Trustee shall instruct the
Collateral Agent to execute and deliver UCC financing statement amendments or releases (or amendments or releases to other perfection documents) (which shall be prepared by TCEH or any Guarantor) solely to the extent necessary to delete any such
released Collateral from the description of assets in any previously filed financing statements or other perfection documents. If requested in writing by TCEH or any Guarantor, the Trustee shall instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver
such documents, instruments or statements (which shall be prepared by TCEH or any Guarantor) and to take such other action as TCEH or any Guarantor may request to evidence or confirm that released Collateral described in the immediately preceding
sentence has been released from the Liens of each of the Collateral Agreements. The Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver such documents, instruments and statements without representation or warranty of any kind and shall take all such actions
promptly upon receipt of such instructions from the Trustee. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary herein, as and when requested by TCEH or any Guarantor, the Trustee shall instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver UCC financing statement amendments or releases (or amendments or releases to other perfection documents) (which
shall be prepared by TCEH or any Guarantor) solely to the extent necessary to delete Excluded Assets from the description of assets in any previously filed financing statements or other perfection documents. If requested in writing by TCEH or any
Guarantor, the Trustee shall instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver such documents, instruments or statements (which shall be prepared by TCEH) and to take such other action as TCEH or any Guarantor may request to evidence or confirm
that Excluded Assets described in the immediately preceding sentence has been released from the Liens of each of the Collateral Agreements. The Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver such documents, instruments and statements without
representation or warranty of any kind and shall take all such actions promptly upon receipt of such instructions from the Trustee. 
 Section 11.08 Authorization of Actions to be Taken by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and unless otherwise expressly provided herein or
therein, each of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, and shall, at the direction of the Required Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Required Debt, take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to (i) exercise or enforce any of its rights or any of the rights of the Holders under the Security Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and
(ii) collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral in respect of the obligations of TCEH and the Guarantors hereunder and thereunder; provided that the Collateral Agent shall exercise, or refrain from
exercising, any remedies provided in the Security Documents in accordance with the terms thereof. Subject to the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have the power to institute and to
maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of the Security Documents, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or this Indenture, and such
suits and proceedings as the Trustee or the Collateral Agent may deem expedient to preserve or protect its interest and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral (including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the
enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security
interest hereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or the Trustee). 

  
 127

 (b) The Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the
existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its
part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment
contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Issuer to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for recording, filing, re-recording or refiling any financing statement, continuation statement, document, instrument or other notice in any public
office at any time or times or to otherwise take any action to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest granted to it under the Security Documents or otherwise. 

(c) Where any provision of this Indenture requires that additional property or assets be added to the Collateral, TCEH
and each Guarantor shall deliver to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent the following: 
 (i) a
request from the Issuer that such Collateral be added; 
 (ii) the form of instrument adding such
Collateral, which, based on the type and location of the property subject thereto, shall be in substantially the form of the applicable Security Documents entered into on the date of this Indenture, with such changes thereto as the Issuer shall
consider appropriate, or in such other form as the Issuer shall deem proper; provided that any such changes or such form are administratively satisfactory to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent; 

(iii) an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this
Indenture to the addition of such Collateral have been complied with; and 
 (iv) such financing
statements, if any, as the Issuer shall deem necessary to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Collateral. 
 (d) The Trustee or the Collateral Agent, in giving any consent or approval under the Security Documents or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, shall receive, as a condition to such consent or
approval, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the action or omission for which consent or approval is to be given does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders or impair the security of the Holders in
contravention of the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, and the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in giving such consent or approval on the basis of such
Officer’s Certificate. 
 (e) The Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, are authorized to
receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed under, and in accordance with, the Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture, the Security Documents
and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 
 Section 11.09 Intercreditor Arrangements. 

(a) If Indebtedness is incurred that is, and is permitted to be pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, secured by a Lien
of equal priority with respect to any Collateral as the Notes and the Guarantees, then the representative of the holders of such Indebtedness if not already a party to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, shall enter into a joinder to the First
Lien Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 128

 (b) If Indebtedness is incurred that is, and is permitted to be pursuant to
the terms of this Indenture, secured on a basis junior to the First Lien Obligations and senior to the Junior Lien Obligations by any Collateral, then (1) the Collateral Agent, at the written request of the Issuer, shall enter into an
intercreditor agreement with customary terms and provisions and (2) the Issuer and the representative of the holders of such Indebtedness shall enter into a joinder, amendment or supplement to the Security Agreement. 

(c) If Indebtedness is incurred that is, and is permitted to be pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, secured by a
Junior Lien on any Collateral, then the Collateral Agent, at the written request of the Issuer, shall enter into an intercreditor agreement with customary terms and provisions, or a supplement to the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, with the
representative of the holders of such Indebtedness and the Administrative Agent under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities (if the Administrative Agent under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities so agrees). 

ARTICLE 12 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 Section 12.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 
 This Indenture
shall be discharged and shall cease to be of further effect as to all Notes, when either: 
 (1)
all such Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes which have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust, have been delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation; or 
 (2) (A) all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by
reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise, shall become due and payable within one year or may 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 Issuer, and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S.
dollars, Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 
 (B) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of
Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture or the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit, and such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of,
or constitute a default under, the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Issuer or any Guarantor is bound (other than
that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith); 

  
 129

 (C) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all sums
payable by it under this Indenture; and 
 (D) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions
to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.

 The Collateral shall be released from the Lien securing the Notes, as provided in Section 11.07, upon a
discharge of this Indenture in accordance with the provisions described in this Article 12. 
 Notwithstanding
the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (A) of clause (2) of this Section 12.01, the provisions of Section 12.02 and Section 8.06 hereof
shall survive. 
 Section 12.02 Application of Trust Money. 

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 12.01
hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 12.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s
obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer 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.

Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and TCEH Finance, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, the “Issuer”), promise to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 11.5% per annum from
April 19, 2011 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest, if any, quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding
Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) without interest accruing on the amount then so payable from such day that is not a Business Day until such Business Day. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to

to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest, if any, (without regard to any applicable grace periods)

business on the December 15, March 15, June 15 and September 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and
on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of
Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest, premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The Issuer or any of its
Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

unredeemed portion of any Notes being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 

(10) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a
Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. The Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture. 

(12) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. The Events of Default
relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Required Holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt may declare the
principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations,
Required Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt 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. The Required Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Required Debt by notice to the Trustee may on
behalf of the Holders of all of the Required Debt waive any existing Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default in the payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any Note held by a non-consenting
Holder. The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuer is required within five Business Days after becoming aware of any Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement
specifying such Default and what action the Issuer proposes to take with respect thereto. 

 (13) AUTHENTICATION. This Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee. 
 (14) GOVERNING LAW. THE INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(15) CUSIP/ISIN NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee
on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP/ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP/ISIN 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 and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon. 

The Issuer will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture and/or the Security
Documents. Requests may be made to the Issuer at the following address:

 EXHIBIT D 
 [FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 
 TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT
GUARANTORS] 
 Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of
            , among             (the “Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a subsidiary of Texas Competitive
Electric Holdings Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TCEH” ), TCEH Finance, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with TCEH, the “Issuer”), the Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to
below) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H 

WHEREAS, each of the Issuer and the Guarantors has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture (the
“Indenture”), dated as of April 19, 2011, providing for the issuance of an unlimited aggregate principal amount of 11.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”); 

WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to
the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and under the
Indenture (the “Guarantee”); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture,
the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration
of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 

1. CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 2. AGREEMENT TO
GUARANTEE. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as follows: 
 (a) Along with all Guarantors
named in the Indenture, to jointly and severally unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the
Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: 
 (i) the
principal of, interest, premium, if any, on the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and
all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

 (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal
of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Failing payment when
due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. This is a guarantee of payment and not a
guarantee of collection. 
 (b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of
the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment
against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. 

(c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a
court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. 

(d) Except as set forth in Section 5 hereof, this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by
complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture. 

(e) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the
Guarantors (including the Guaranteeing Subsidiary), or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to
the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (f) The
Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. 

(g) As between the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other
hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall
forthwith become due and payable by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary for the purpose of this Guarantee. 
 (h) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this
Guarantee. 
 (i) Pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, after giving effect to all
other contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any
other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of the Indenture, this new Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible such that the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary under this
Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

  
 D-2

 (j) This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and
continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Issuer become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for
all or any significant part of the Issuer’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to
applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes and Guarantee, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such
payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount
paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
 (k) In case any provision of this
Guarantee 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. 

(l) This Guarantee shall be a general senior obligation of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary. This Guarantee
shall rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future Indebtedness of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, except to the extent such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the Obligations arising under a Guarantee, in which case the
obligations of a Guaranteeing Subsidiary under such Guarantee shall rank senior in right of payment to such Indebtedness. 
 (m) Each payment to be made by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary in respect of this Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature. 

3. EXECUTION AND DELIVERY. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary agrees that the
Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. 
 4. Merger, Consolidation or Sale of All or Substantially All Assets.

 D-3

 (B) the Successor Person, if other than the Guaranteeing Subsidiary,
expressly assumes all the obligations of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary’s related Guarantee pursuant to supplemental indentures or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory
to the Trustee; 
 (C) immediately after such transaction, no Default exists; and 

(D) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating
that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indentures, if any, comply with the Indenture; or 
 (ii) the transaction is made in compliance with Section 4.10 of the Indenture; 
 (b) Subject to certain limitations described in the Indenture, the Successor Person will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture and the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary’s Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary may (i) merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the Issuer, (ii) merge with an Affiliate of the Issuer
solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Guaranteeing Subsidiary in the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof or (iii) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited
liability corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor.

Guaranteeing Subsidiary is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary or sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary which sale, exchange or transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture;

Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture or any Security Document or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting Notes waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and

privileges and appurtenances thereto belonging to Trustee and to its substitutes or successors, forever; and Grantor does hereby bind itself, its successors and assigns to WARRANT AND FOREVER DEFEND the title to the Mortgaged Property, subject to
Permitted Liens, unto Trustee and to its substitutes or successors against the claim or claims of every person whomsoever lawfully claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof. 

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Mortgaged Property unto the Trustee and/or Beneficiary, their respective successors and assigns
for the uses and purposes set forth, until the Obligations are fully paid and performed, provided, however, that the condition of this Deed of Trust is such that if the Obligations are fully paid and performed in accordance with the provisions of
the Security Documents, then the estate hereby granted shall cease, terminate and become void but shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted hereunder and the exercise of any rights or remedies by Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder are subject to the
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Subordination and Priority Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Deed of Trust, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement

 3.1 Title to Mortgaged Property and Lien of this Instrument; Warranties Regarding Warranty Property. Grantor warrants that Grantor has good title in fee simple in and to the Warranty Land, a valid
leasehold estate under the Mortgaged Leases described in Exhibit B, a valid easement estate under the Warranty Easements Rights, and good title to the Warranty Fee Improvements, the Warranty Leasehold Improvements and the Warranty Easement
Improvements, the Warranty Fixtures and the Warranty Water Rights, and upon acquisition thereof by Grantor, will have good title in fee simple, leasehold or easement estate, as applicable, in the portion of the Mortgage Property hereafter acquired
by Grantor, in each case free and clear 

  
 5 

 
of any Liens except for Permitted Liens, except where the failure to have such good title could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Deed of Trust creates valid,
enforceable liens and security interests against the Mortgaged Property, subject to Permitted Liens, and upon recording of this Deed of Trust in the real property records of the county or counties in which the Mortgaged Property is situated and this
Deed of Trust being indexed as a fixture, timber and as-extracted collateral filing in such records, this Deed of Trust will create and constitute a valid and enforceable mortgage Lien on and UCC security interest in the portion of the Mortgaged
Property that is fixtures, timber to be cut and as-extracted collateral, subject to Permitted Liens. Grantor shall preserve and protect the Lien (including the priority thereof) and security interest of this Deed of Trust and the other Security
Documents insofar as they refer to the Mortgaged Property, subject only to Permitted Liens, to the extent necessary to avoid causing a Material Adverse Effect. 
 3.2 Payment of Obligations. Grantor shall pay and perform the Obligations at the times and places and in the manner specified in the Security Documents. 

3.3 Requirements. Grantor shall comply with all covenants, restrictions and conditions now or later of record
which may be applicable to any of the Mortgaged Property, or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, alteration, repair or reconstruction of any of the Mortgaged Property, except where a failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 3.4 Payment of Taxes and Other Impositions.
(a) Except as prohibited by the Indenture, Grantor shall, prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto or imposed, pay and discharge all taxes, charges and assessments of every kind and nature, all charges
for any easement or agreement maintained for the benefit of any of the Real Estate, all general and special assessments, levies, permits, inspection and license fees, all water and sewer rents and charges, all vault taxes and all other public
charges even if unforeseen or extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed against or that may become a material lien on any of the Real Estate, or arising in respect of the occupancy, use or possession thereof, together with any penalties or interest on
any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing are collectively referred to herein as the “Impositions”), except where the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, so long as Grantor
maintains adequate reserves (in the good faith judgment of the management of the Issuer) with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and the failure to pay could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. If by law any
Imposition may be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Grantor may elect to pay such Imposition in such installments and shall be responsible for the payment of such installments with
interest, if any. 
 (b) Nothing herein shall affect any right or remedy of Trustee or Beneficiary under this
Deed of Trust or otherwise, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice or demand to Grantor, to pay any Imposition after the date such Imposition shall have become delinquent, and add to the
Obligations the amount so paid, together with interest from the time of payment at the default rate determined in accordance with Section 2.12 of the Indenture (interest accrued at such rate being referred to herein as “Default
Interest”). Any sums paid by Trustee or Beneficiary in discharge of any Impositions shall be (i) a lien on the Premises secured hereby prior to any right or title to, interest in, or claim upon the Premises subordinate to the lien of
this Deed of Trust, and (ii) payable on demand by Grantor to Trustee or Beneficiary, as the case may be, together with Default Interest.

 3.5 Insurance. Grantor will keep or cause to be kept the Mortgaged
Property insured against such risks and shall purchase such additional insurance to the extent that is required from time to time pursuant to Section 4.17 of the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any portion of the
Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (or any
amendment or successor act thereto), then Grantor shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood insurance in an amount sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated
pursuant to such Act. 
 3.6 Restrictions on Liens and Encumbrances. Except for the lien of this Deed of
Trust and the Permitted Liens, Grantor shall not further mortgage, nor otherwise encumber the Mortgaged Property nor create or suffer to exist any lien, charge or encumbrance on the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, whether superior or
subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust and whether recourse or non-recourse. 
 3.7 Due on Sale and
Other Transfer Restrictions. Except as expressly permitted under the Indenture or herein, Grantor shall not sell, transfer, convey or assign all or any portion of, or any interest in, the Mortgaged Property. 

3.8 Condemnation/Eminent Domain. Promptly upon obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceedings for the
condemnation of the Mortgaged Property, or any material portion thereof, Grantor will notify Beneficiary of the pendency of such proceedings. All awards and proceeds relating to such condemnation shall be deemed Net Proceeds and applied in the
manner specified in Section 4.10 of the Indenture.

under the Indenture, Grantor shall not (a) execute an assignment or pledge of any Lease relating to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property other than in favor of Beneficiary, or (b) execute or permit to exist any Lease of any of the
Mortgaged Property. 
 3.10 Further Assurances. To the extent required under the terms of the Indenture,
to further assure Beneficiary’s rights under this Deed of Trust, Grantor agrees promptly upon demand of Beneficiary to do any act or execute any additional documents (including, but not limited to, security agreements on any personalty included
or to be included in the Mortgaged Property and a separate assignment of each Lease in recordable form) as may be reasonably required by Beneficiary to confirm the lien of this Deed of Trust and all other rights or benefits conferred on Beneficiary
by this Deed of Trust. 
 3.11 Beneficiary’s Right to Perform. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Beneficiary or Trustee, may, at any time upon 5 days’ notice to Grantor (but shall be under no obligation to) pay or perform any delinquent obligations of Grantor hereunder, and the amount or cost thereof,
with Default Interest, shall immediately be due from Grantor to Beneficiary or Trustee (as the case may be) and the same shall be secured by this 

  
 7 

 
Deed of Trust and shall be a lien on the Mortgaged Property prior to any right, title to, interest in, or claim upon the Mortgaged Property attaching subsequent to the lien of this Deed of Trust.
No payment or advance of money by Beneficiary or Trustee under this Section shall be deemed or construed to cure Grantor’s default or waive any right or remedy of Beneficiary or Trustee. 

 

	4.	LIMITATION ON AMOUNT OBLIGATED; CONTRIBUTION BY OTHER PERSONS 

Anything contained in this Deed of Trust to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Fraudulent Transfer Law (as hereinafter
defined) is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be applicable to the obligations of Grantor under this Deed of Trust, such obligations shall be limited to the maximum aggregate amount that would not render Grantor’s obligations
under this Deed of Trust subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer
Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of Grantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws, and giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable
provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, or contribution of Grantor pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement. 

 

	5.	REMEDIES 

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary may immediately take such action,
without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Grantor and in and to the Mortgaged Property, including, but not limited to, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at
such time and in such manner as Trustee or Beneficiary (as the case may be) may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Beneficiary: 

(i) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Trustee is hereby authorized
and empowered to sell or offer for sale at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, as Trustee may elect, all or any part of the Mortgaged Property located in the State of Texas, with or without having first taken possession of same, to the
highest bidder for cash at public auction. Such sale or sales shall be made at the courthouse of the county in Texas in which the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof is situated, as herein described, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
on the first Tuesday of any month, beginning within three (3) hours of the time provided in the notices described herein. Trustee shall post a written or printed notice or notices of the place, earliest time at which the sale will begin and the
terms of said sale, and the portion of the Mortgaged Property to be sold, for at least twenty-one (21) days preceding the date of the sale, at the courthouse door of said county in which the sale is to be made; and if such Mortgaged Property
lies in more than one county, one such notice of sale shall be posted at the courthouse door of each county in which such Mortgaged Property is situated and such Mortgaged Property may be sold at the area designated by the commissioners court of any
one of such counties, and the notice so posted shall designate 

  
 8 

 
in which county such property shall be sold. In addition to such posting of notice, Beneficiary, Trustee or the other holder of the secured indebtedness (or some person or persons acting for the
Trustee, Beneficiary, or other such holder) shall, at least twenty-one (21) days preceding the date of sale, file a copy of such notice(s) in the office of the county clerk in each of such counties and serve or cause to be served written notice
of the proposed sale by certified mail on Grantor and on each other party, if any, obligated to pay the secured indebtedness according to the records of Beneficiary. Service of such notice shall be completed upon deposit of the notice, enclosed in a
postpaid wrapper properly addressed to Grantor and such other parties at their most recent address or addresses as shown by the records of Beneficiary, in a post office or official depository under the care and custody of the United States Postal
Service. The affidavit of any person having knowledge of the facts to the effect that such a service was completed shall be prima facie evidence of the fact of service. Grantor agrees that no notice of any sale, other than as set out in this
paragraph, need be given by Trustee, Beneficiary, or any other person. Grantor authorizes and empowers Trustee to sell the Mortgaged Property in lots or parcels or in its entirety as Trustee shall deem expedient; and to execute and deliver to the
purchaser or purchasers thereof good and sufficient deeds of conveyance thereto, with evidence of general warranty by Grantor. Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property by public announcement at the time and place of
such sale, and from time to time thereafter may further postpone such sale by public announcement made at the time of sale fixed by the preceding postponement. The right of sale hereunder shall not be exhausted by one or any sale, and Trustee may
make other and successive sales until all of the trust estate be legally sold. The provisions hereof with respect to the posting and giving of notices of sale are intended to comply with the provisions of Section 51.002 of the Texas Property
Code as in effect on the date hereof, and in the event that the requirements of Section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code shall be modified or repealed in the future, by amendment, superceding statute or otherwise, and such amendment, statute
or other action applies to the enforcement of pre-existing instruments, then the terms of this Section shall be deemed to be modified accordingly, effective as of the effective date of such modification or repeal; 

(ii) Beneficiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (A) institute and maintain an action
of mortgage foreclosure against all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, (B) institute and maintain an action on the Security Documents, or (C) take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust or any
of the Security Documents as the law may allow. Beneficiary may proceed in any such action to final judgment and execution thereon for all sums due hereunder, together with Default Interest thereon and all costs of suit, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Default Interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be due on any judgment obtained by Beneficiary from the date of judgment until actual payment is made of the full
amount of the judgment; and 
 (iii) Beneficiary may personally, or by its agents, attorneys and
employees and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Mortgaged Property or any other collateral as security for the Obligations enter into and upon the Mortgaged Property and each and every part thereof and exclude Grantor and its
agents and employees therefrom without liability for trespass, damage or otherwise (Grantor hereby agreeing to surrender 

  
 9 

 
possession of the Mortgaged Property to Beneficiary upon demand at any such time) and use, operate, manage, maintain and control the Mortgaged Property and every part thereof. Following such
entry and taking of possession, Beneficiary shall be entitled, without limitation, (x) to lease all or any part or parts of the Mortgaged Property for such periods of time and upon such conditions as Beneficiary may, in its discretion, deem
proper, (y) to enforce, cancel or modify any Lease and (z) generally to execute, do and perform any other act, deed, matter or thing concerning the Mortgaged Property as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate as fully as Grantor might do.

 (b) In case of a foreclosure sale, the Real Estate may be sold, at Trustee’s election, in one parcel or
in more than one parcel and Trustee is specifically empowered (without being required to do so, and in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause successive sales of portions of the Mortgaged Property to be held. 

(c) In the event of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Deed of Trust,
Beneficiary, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and principles of equity, shall be entitled to enjoin such breach and/or obtain specific performance of any covenant, agreement, term or condition and Beneficiary shall have the right to
invoke any equitable right or remedy as though other remedies were not provided for in this Deed of Trust. 

(d) It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any and all proceeds of the Mortgaged
Property received by Trustee or Beneficiary shall be held by Trustee for Beneficiary for the benefit of the Secured Parties or by Beneficiary for the benefit of the Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations (whether matured or
unmatured), and shall be applied in payment of the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 5.3 of the Security Agreement. 
  

	6.	RIGHT OF BENEFICIARY TO CREDIT SALE 

 Upon the occurrence of any sale made under this Deed of Trust, whether made under the power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Beneficiary may
bid for and acquire the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof. In lieu of paying cash therefor, Beneficiary may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Obligations or other sums secured by this Deed of Trust, the net sales
price after deducting therefrom the expenses of sale and the cost of the action and any other sums which Beneficiary is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust. In such event, this Deed of Trust, the Security Documents and all other documents
evidencing expenditures secured hereby may be presented to the person or persons conducting the sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited upon the Obligations as having been paid. 

 

	7.	APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER 

 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary as a matter of right and without notice to Grantor, unless otherwise required by applicable law, and without regard to the
adequacy or inadequacy of the Mortgaged Property or any other collateral or the interest of Grantor therein as security for the Obligations, shall have the right to apply to any 

  
 10 

 
court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers of the Mortgaged Property, without requiring the posting of a surety bond, and without reference to the adequacy of the value of the
Mortgaged Property or the solvency or insolvency of Grantor or any other party obligated for payment of all or any part of the Obligations, and whether or not waste has occurred with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and Grantor hereby irrevocably
consents to such appointment and waives notice of any application therefor (except as may be required by law). Any such receiver or receivers shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all the powers and
duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided in this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation and to the extent permitted by law, the right to enter into leases of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, and shall continue as such and
exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Mortgaged Property unless such receivership is sooner terminated. 
  

	8.	EXTENSION, RELEASE, ETC 

 (a) Without affecting the lien or charge of this Deed of Trust upon any portion of the Mortgaged Property not then or theretofore released as security for the full amount of the Obligations, Beneficiary
may, from time to time and without notice, agree to (i) release any person liable for the indebtedness borrowed or guaranteed under the Security Documents, (ii) extend the maturity or alter any of the terms of the indebtedness borrowed or
guaranteed under the Security Documents or any other guaranty thereof, (iii) grant other indulgences, (iv) release or reconvey, or cause to be released or reconveyed at any time at Beneficiary’s option any parcel, portion or all of
the Mortgaged Property, (v) take or release any other or additional security for any obligation herein mentioned, or (vi) make compositions or other arrangements with debtors in relation thereto. 

(b) No recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Mortgaged Property
or upon any other property of Grantor shall affect the lien of this Deed of Trust or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Beneficiary hereunder, and such liens, rights, powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired. 

(c) If Beneficiary shall have the right to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to direct the Trustee to exercise its power of
sale, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary at its option to foreclose the lien of this Deed of Trust (or direct the Trustee to sell the Mortgaged Property, as the case may be) subject to the rights of any tenants of the Mortgaged Property. The failure to
make any such tenants parties defendant to any such foreclosure proceeding and to foreclose their rights, or to provide notice to such tenants as required in any statutory procedure governing a sale of the Mortgaged Property, or to terminate such
tenant’s rights in such sale will not be asserted by Grantor as a defense to any proceeding instituted by Beneficiary to collect the Obligations or to foreclose the lien of this Deed of Trust. 

(d) Unless expressly provided otherwise, in the event that Beneficiary’s interest in this Deed of Trust and title to
the Mortgaged Property or any estate therein shall become vested in the same person or entity, this Deed of Trust shall not merge in such title but shall continue as a valid lien on the Mortgaged Property for the amount secured hereby. 

  
 11 

	9.	SECURITY AGREEMENT UNDER UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE; FIXTURE FILING 

(a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Deed of Trust shall constitute a “security agreement”
within the meaning of the UCC. To that end, Grantor hereby grants to Trustee and Beneficiary, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in the Fixtures, Leases, Rents, timber to be cut and as-extracted collateral, all to
secure payment and performance of the Obligations. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Beneficiary shall have the option of either
(i) proceeding under the UCC and exercising such rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party by the UCC with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property that is personal property (including, without limitation, taking
possession of and selling such property) or (ii) treating such property as real property and proceeding with respect to both the real and personal property constituting the Mortgaged Property in accordance with Beneficiary’s rights, powers
and remedies with respect to the Real Estate (in which event the default provisions of the UCC shall not apply). If Beneficiary shall elect to proceed under the UCC, then ten (10) days’ notice of sale of the personal property shall be
deemed reasonable notice and the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like incurred by Beneficiary shall include, but not be limited to, attorneys’ fees and legal expenses. At Beneficiary’s request,
Grantor shall assemble the personal property and make it available to Beneficiary at a place designated by Beneficiary which is reasonably convenient to both parties. 

(b) Certain portions of the Mortgaged Property are or will become “fixtures”, “timber to be cut” or
“as-extracted collateral” (as defined in the UCC) on the Owned Land, the Mortgage Leased Land, the Easement Land or the Improvements located thereon, and this Deed of Trust, upon being filed for record in the real estate records of the
county wherein such fixtures, timber to be cut or as-extracted collateral are situated, shall operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance with the applicable provisions of said UCC upon such portions of the
Mortgaged Property that are or become fixtures. The Land, Mortgaged Leased Land and Easement Land to which the fixtures relate is described in Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C respectively hereto. The record owner of
(i) the Land described in Exhibit A hereto is the Grantor, (ii) the Mortgaged Leased Land described in Exhibit B hereto is the landlord under the Mortgaged Leases described in such exhibit or its successor in interest as

	10.	ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS 

 (a) Grantor hereby assigns to Beneficiary the Rents as further security for the payment of and performance of the Obligations, and Grantor grants to Beneficiary the right to enter the Mortgaged Property
for the purpose of collecting the same and to let the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, and to apply the Rents on account of the Obligations. The foregoing assignment and grant is present and absolute and shall continue in effect until the
Obligations are fully paid and performed, but Beneficiary hereby waives the right to enter the Mortgaged Property for the purpose of collecting the Rents and Grantor shall be entitled to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents unless an Event of
Default has occurred and for so long as such Event of Default continues; such right of Grantor to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents may be revoked by Beneficiary upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default by
giving not less than five days’ written notice of such revocation to Grantor. In the event such notice is given, Grantor shall pay over to Beneficiary, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, any lease security deposits, and shall
pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary, or to any such receiver, the fair and reasonable rental value as determined by Beneficiary for the use and occupancy of such part of the Mortgaged Property as may be in the possession of Grantor or any
affiliate of Grantor, and upon default in any such payment Grantor and any such affiliate will vacate and surrender the possession of the Mortgaged Property to Beneficiary or to such receiver, and in default thereof may be evicted by summary
proceedings or otherwise. Grantor shall not accept prepayments of installments of Rent to become due for a period of more than one month in advance (except for security deposits and estimated payments of percentage rent, if any). 

(b) Grantor has not affirmatively done any act that would prevent Beneficiary from, or limit Beneficiary in, acting under
any of the provisions of the foregoing assignment. 
 (c) Except for any matter disclosed in the Indenture, no
action has been brought or, so far as is known to Grantor, is threatened, that would interfere in any way with the right of Grantor to execute the foregoing assignment and perform all of Grantor’s obligations contained in this Section and in
the Leases. 
  

	11.	ADDITIONAL RIGHTS 

 The holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust on the Mortgaged Property shall have no right to terminate any Lease whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Deed of Trust nor
shall Grantor consent to any holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust joining any tenant under any Lease in any trustee’s sale or action to foreclose such subordinate lien or modify, interfere with, disturb or terminate the
rights of any tenant under any Lease. By recordation of this Deed of Trust all subordinate lienholders and the trustees and beneficiaries under subordinate mortgages are subject to and notified of this provision, and any action taken by any such
lienholder or beneficiary contrary to this provision shall be null and void. Any such application shall not be construed to cure or waive any Default or Event of Default or invalidate any act taken by Beneficiary on account of such Default or Event
of Default. 

  
 13 

	12.	NOTICES 

All notices, requests and demands to or upon Beneficiary or the Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided
for in Section 13.02 of the Indenture; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon Grantor shall be addressed to Grantor at its address set forth above. 

 

	13.	NO ORAL MODIFICATION 

 This Deed of Trust may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with the provisions of Article 9 of the Indenture. Any agreement made by Grantor and Beneficiary after the
date of this Deed of Trust relating to this Deed of Trust shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any intervening or subordinate lien or encumbrance. Trustee’s execution of any written agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary shall
not be required for the effectiveness thereof as between Grantor and Beneficiary. 
  

	14.	PARTIAL INVALIDITY 

 In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Deed of Trust shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but each shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust or in
any provisions of any Security Document, the obligations of Grantor and of any other obligor under any Security Document shall be subject to the limitation that Beneficiary shall not charge, take or receive, nor shall Grantor or any other obligor be
obligated to pay to Beneficiary, any amounts constituting interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by Beneficiary. 
  

	15.	GRANTOR’S WAIVER OF RIGHTS 

 (a) Grantor hereby voluntarily and knowingly releases and waives any and all rights to retain possession of the Mortgaged Property upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and
any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure (whether full or partial), pursuant to rights, if any, therein granted, as allowed under any applicable law, on its own behalf, on behalf of all persons claiming or
having an interest (direct or indirectly) by, through or under Grantor and on behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in the Mortgaged Property subsequent to the date hereof, it being the intent hereof that any and all such rights of
redemption of Grantor and all such other persons are and shall be deemed to be hereby waived to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law or replacement statute. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor shall not invoke or
utilize any such law or laws or otherwise hinder, delay, or impede the execution of any right, power, or remedy herein or otherwise granted or delegated to Beneficiary, but shall permit the execution of every such right, power, and remedy as though
no such law or laws had been made or enacted. 
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor waives the
benefit of all laws now existing or that may subsequently be enacted providing for (i) any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) any extension of the time for the enforcement of the

  
 14 

 
collection of the Obligations or the creation or extension of a period of redemption from any sale made in collecting such debt and (iii) exemption of the Mortgaged Property from attachment,
levy or sale under execution or exemption from civil process. To the full extent Grantor may do so, Grantor agrees that Grantor will not at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force
providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, exemption, extension or redemption, or requiring foreclosure of this Deed of Trust before exercising any other remedy granted hereunder and Grantor, for Grantor and its successors and assigns, and for
any and all persons ever claiming any interest in the Mortgaged Property, to the extent permitted by law, hereby waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature (except as
expressly provided in the Indenture) or declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness and marshalling in the event of exercise by Trustee or Beneficiary of the foreclosure rights, power of sale, or other rights hereby created. 

 

	16.	REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE 

 (a) Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce payment and performance of the Obligations and to exercise all rights and powers under this Deed of Trust or under any of the other Security
Documents or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or all of the Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or
otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or
Trustee, it being agreed that Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce this Deed of Trust and any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee in such order and manner as Beneficiary or Trustee may determine in its
absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Security Documents to Beneficiary or Trustee or to which either may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised,
concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case may be. In no event shall Beneficiary or Trustee, in the exercise of the remedies provided in this Deed of Trust
(including, without limitation, in connection with the assignment of Rents to Beneficiary, or the appointment of a receiver and the entry of such receiver on to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property), be deemed a “mortgagee in
possession,” and neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall in any way be made liable for any act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the exercise of such remedies. 

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 16(a), except as otherwise provided in Section 16(c) below,
neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under Sections 5 and 16 hereof, the security interests under Section 9, the assignment of Rents under Section 10, nor any other remedies afforded to Beneficiary under the Security Documents,
at law or in equity shall cause Beneficiary, any Secured Party or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Beneficiary, any Secured Party or Trustee to lease the Mortgaged Property or
attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise. 

  
 15 

 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 16(b) above, Beneficiary
shall not obtain title to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or take any other action with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, Beneficiary could, in its reasonable judgment be considered to hold title to,
to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of the Mortgaged Property within the meaning of Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Of 1980 (42 U.S.C. Sections
9601 et seq.), as amended, or any comparable law, unless: 
 (i) Beneficiary has previously and
reasonably determined, based on a Phase I environmental site assessment (and any additional environmental testing that Beneficiary deems necessary and prudent) of such Mortgaged Property conducted by an independent third party who regularly conducts
Phase I environmental site assessments and performed during the 12-month period preceding any such acquisition of title or other action, that the Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and there are no
circumstances or conditions present at the Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any
applicable environmental laws and regulations; or 
 (ii) in the event that the determination
described in clause (i) above cannot be made, Beneficiary has previously and reasonably determined, on the same basis as described in clause (i) above, that it would maximize the recovery to the Secured Parties on a present value basis to
acquire title to or possession of the Mortgaged Property and to take such remedial, corrective and/or other further actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and to
appropriately address any of the circumstances and conditions referred to in clause (i) above. 
 (d)
Beneficiary shall undertake, in good faith, reasonable efforts to make the determination referred to in clause (ii) above, and may conclusively rely on the Phase I environmental site assessment referred to above, and upon an opinion of counsel,
in making such determination. The cost of any such Phase I environmental site assessment and any such opinion of counsel, and the cost of any Phase II environmental site assessment, additional environmental testing and remedial, corrective or other
further action contemplated by clause (i) or clause (ii) above, shall be paid at the sole expense of Grantor. 
 (e) If the environmental testing contemplated by Section 16(b) above establishes that any of the conditions set forth in clause (i) have not been satisfied with respect to the Mortgaged
Property, Beneficiary shall take such action (other than proceeding against the Mortgaged Property) and, at such time as it deems appropriate, may release all or a portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of this Deed of Trust, provided that
prior to the release of all or a portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of this Deed of Trust (i) Beneficiary shall have notified the Secured Parties in writing of its intention to so release all or a portion of such Mortgaged Property
and (ii) the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal balance of the Obligations shall not have objected to such release within thirty (30) days of the distribution of the last of such notices. 

  
 16 

	17.	MULTIPLE SECURITY 

 If (a) the Land shall consist of one or more parcels, whether or not contiguous and whether or not located in the same county, or (b) in addition to this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall now or
hereafter hold or be the beneficiary of one or more additional mortgages, liens, deeds of trust or other security (directly or indirectly) for the Obligations upon other property in the State in which the Land is located (whether or not such
property is owned by Grantor or by others) or (c) both the circumstances described in clauses (a) and (b) shall be true, then to the fullest extent permitted by law, and after giving all notices required by law, Beneficiary may, at
its election, commence or consolidate in a single trustee’s sale or foreclosure action all trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings against all such collateral securing the Obligations (including the Mortgaged Property), which action may
be brought or consolidated in the courts of, or sale conducted in, any county in which any of such collateral is located. Grantor acknowledges that the right to maintain a consolidated trustee’s sale or foreclosure action is a specific
inducement to Beneficiary to extend the indebtedness borrowed pursuant to or guaranteed by the Security Documents, and Grantor expressly and irrevocably waives any objections to the commencement or consolidation of the foreclosure proceedings in a
single action and any objections to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens which it may now or hereafter have. Grantor further agrees that if Trustee or Beneficiary shall be prosecuting one or more foreclosure or other
proceedings against a portion of the Mortgaged Property or against any collateral other than the Mortgaged Property, which collateral directly or indirectly secures the Obligations, or if Beneficiary shall have obtained a judgment of foreclosure and
sale or similar judgment against such collateral (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, shall have met the statutory requirements therefor with respect to such collateral), then, whether or not such proceedings are being maintained or judgments
were obtained in or outside the State in which the Premises are located, Beneficiary may commence or continue any foreclosure proceedings and exercise its other remedies granted in this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Mortgaged Property
and Grantor waives any objections to the commencement or continuation of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or exercise of any other remedies hereunder based on such other proceedings or judgments, and waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay,
remove, transfer or consolidate either any action under this Deed of Trust or such other proceedings on such basis. The commencement or continuation of proceedings to sell the Mortgaged Property in a trustee’s sale to foreclose this Deed of
Trust, or the exercise of any other rights hereunder or the recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary in any such proceedings or the occurrence of any sale by the Trustee in any such proceedings shall not prejudice, limit or preclude
Beneficiary’s right to commence or continue one or more trustee’s sales, foreclosure or other proceedings or obtain a judgment against (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, to meet the statutory requirements for, any such sale of) any
other collateral (either in or outside the State in which the Premises are located) which directly or indirectly secures the Obligations, and Grantor expressly waives any objections to the commencement of, continuation of, or entry of a judgment in
such other sales or proceedings or exercise of any remedies in such sales or proceedings based upon any action or judgment connected to this Deed of Trust, and Grantor also waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate
either such other sales or proceedings or any sale or action under this Deed of Trust on such basis. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the fullest 

  
 17 

 
extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, cause the sale of all collateral that is the subject of a single foreclosure action at either a single sale or at multiple sales
conducted simultaneously and take such other measures as are appropriate in order to effect the agreement of the parties to dispose of and administer all collateral securing the Obligations (directly or indirectly) in the most economical and least
time-consuming manner. 
  

	18.	SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 

 All covenants of Grantor contained in this Deed of Trust are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Beneficiary, and its successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall have
standing to require compliance with such covenants or be deemed, under any circumstances, to be a beneficiary of such covenants, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Beneficiary at any time if in the sole discretion of
either of them such a waiver is deemed advisable. All such covenants of Grantor shall run with the land and bind Grantor, the successors and assigns of Grantor (and each of them) and all subsequent owners, encumbrances and tenants of the Mortgaged
Property, and shall inure to the benefit of Trustee and Beneficiary and their respective successors and assigns. The word “Grantor” shall be construed as if it read “Grantors” whenever the sense of this Deed of Trust so requires
and if there shall be more than one Grantor, the obligations of the Grantors shall be joint and several. 
  

	19.	NO WAIVERS, ETC. 

 Any failure by Beneficiary to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the terms and provisions
hereof, and Beneficiary, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any and all of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust to be performed by Grantor. Beneficiary may
release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the security held for the obligations secured by this Deed of Trust without, as
to the remainder of the security, in any way impairing or affecting the lien of this Deed of Trust or the priority of such lien over any subordinate lien or deed of trust. 

 

	20.	GOVERNING LAW, ETC. 

 This Deed of Trust shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, except that Grantor expressly acknowledges that by their respective terms the
Security Documents (unless otherwise specified therein) shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
  

	21.	DUTY OF BENEFICIARY; AUTHORITY OF BENEFICIARY 

 (a) Beneficiary’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Mortgaged Property that is in its possession, or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same
manner as Beneficiary deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Beneficiary, any Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of
the Mortgaged Property or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose 

  
 18 

 
of any Mortgaged Property upon the request of Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof. The powers conferred on
Beneficiary and the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect Beneficiary’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in the Mortgaged Property and shall not impose any duty upon Beneficiary or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers.
BENEFICIARY AND THE SECURED PARTIES SHALL BE ACCOUNTABLE ONLY FOR AMOUNTS THAT THEY ACTUALLY RECEIVE AS A RESULT OF THE EXERCISE OF SUCH POWERS, AND NEITHER THEY NOR ANY OF THEIR OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO
GRANTOR FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT HEREUNDER, EXCEPT FOR THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 

(b) Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust with respect to any
action taken by Beneficiary or the exercise or non-exercise by Beneficiary of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Deed of Trust shall, as between Beneficiary
and any Secured Party, be governed by the Indenture and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between Beneficiary and Grantor, Beneficiary shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as
agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and Grantor shall be under no obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. 

 

	22.	LAST DOLLARS SECURED; PRIORITY 

 To the extent that this Deed of Trust secures only a portion of the indebtedness owing or that may be owing by Grantor to any Secured Party, the parties agree that any payments or repayments of such
indebtedness shall be and be deemed to be applied first to the portion of the indebtedness that is not secured hereby, it being the parties’ intent that the portion of the indebtedness last remaining unpaid shall be secured hereby. If at any
time this Deed of Trust shall secure less than all of the principal amount of the Obligations, it is expressly agreed that any repayments of the principal amount of the Obligations shall not reduce the amount of the lien of this Deed of Trust until
the lien amount shall equal the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding. 
  

	23.	ENFORCEMENT EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION 

 (a) Grantor agrees to pay any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including all reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel, and,
if necessary, one firm of regulatory counsel and/or one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case to Beneficiary (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Person affected by such conflict
informs the Issuer of such conflict and thereafter, retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Person)) that may be paid or incurred by any Secured Party in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any
rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, such Grantor under this Deed of Trust. 

  
 19 

 (b) Grantor agrees to pay, and to save Beneficiary and the Secured Parties
harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Mortgaged Property or in
connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Deed of Trust. 
 (c) Grantor agrees to pay, and to
save Beneficiary harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance and administration of this Deed of Trust to the extent Issuer would be required to do so pursuant to Section 7.07 of the Indenture, AND SUBJECT TO THE PARAGRAPH BELOW, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY, OR ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART OUT
OF, THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY, OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF BENEFICIARY OR THE SECURED PARTIES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN SECTION 7.07 OF THE INDENTURE TO THE CONTRARY, BENEFICIARY MAY BE INDEMNIFIED FOR MATTERS CAUSED BY OR THAT
ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF BENEFICIARY UNDER BUT SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 23(c). 

In no event shall Beneficiary be responsible or liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of
any kind whatsoever, irrespective of whether Beneficiary has been informed of the likelihood of such loss or damages and regardless of the form of action. Neither Issuer, Parent Guarantor, nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any obligation
hereunder to Beneficiary or any of its Related Parties (the “Indemnified Parties”) with respect to indemnified liabilities to the extent it has been determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
to have resulted from (A) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party (other than trustees and advisors), (B) a breach of the obligations of any Indemnified Party (other than trustees and advisors) under
the Security Documents or (C) disputes not involving an act or omission of any of Issuer, Parent Guarantor, or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates and that is brought by any Indemnified Party against any other
Indemnified Party. 
 (d) The agreements in this Section 23 shall survive repayment of the
Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Security Documents. 
  

	24.	RELEASE 

If any of the Mortgaged Property shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction
permitted by the Security Documents and the Net Proceeds are applied in accordance with any applicable requirement (if any) of the Indenture, then Beneficiary, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such
Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Mortgaged Property. The Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed
release, a written request for release identifying the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Grantor stating that such

  
 20 

 
transaction is in compliance with, and permitted by, the Security Documents. In addition, upon the execution by Grantor of an easement, right-of-way or other real property interest that
constitutes a Permitted Lien pursuant to clause (5) of the definition of Permitted Liens in the Indenture (a “Permitted Real Property Interest”), Beneficiary will subordinate the Liens created hereby to the rights of third
parties with respect to such Permitted Real Property Interest. 
  

	25.	SUBSTITUTE TRUSTEE 

 In case of the resignation of the Trustee, or the inability (through death or otherwise), refusal or failure of the Trustee to act, or at the option of Beneficiary or the holder(s) of a majority of the
Obligations for any other reason (which reason need not be stated), a substitute Trustee (“Substitute Trustee”) may be named, constituted and appointed by Beneficiary or the holder(s) of a majority of the Obligations, without other
formality than an appointment and designation in writing, which appointment and designation shall be full evidence of the right and authority to make the same and of all facts therein recited, and this conveyance shall vest in the Substitute Trustee
the title, powers and duties herein conferred on the Trustee originally named herein, and the conveyance of the Substitute Trustee to the purchaser(s) at any sale of the Mortgaged Property of any part thereof shall be equally valid and effective.
The right to appoint a Substitute Trustee shall exist as often and whenever from any of said causes, the Trustee, original or Substitute Trustee, resigns or cannot, will not or does not act, or Beneficiary or the holder(s) of a majority of the
Obligations desires to appoint a new Trustee. No bond shall ever be required of the Trustee, original or Substitute Trustee. The recitals in any conveyance made by the Trustee, original or Substitute, shall be accepted and construed in court and
elsewhere as prima facie evidence and proof of the facts recited, and no other proof shall be required as to the request by Beneficiary or the holders(s) of a majority of Obligations to the Trustee to enforce this Deed of Trust, or as to the notice
of or holding of the sale, or as to any particulars thereof, or as to the resignation of the Trustee, original or Substitute, or as to the inability, refusal or failure of the Trustee, original or Substitute Trustee, to act, or as to the election of
Beneficiary or the holder(s) of a majority of the Obligations to appoint a new Trustee, or as to appointment of a Substitute Trustee, and all prerequisites of said sale shall be presumed to have been performed; and each sale made under the powers
herein granted shall be a perpetual bar against Grantor and the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of Grantor. Trustee, original or substitute, is hereby authorized and empowered to appoint any one or more persons as
attorney-in-fact to act as Trustee under it and in its name, place and stead in order to take any actions that Trustee is authorized and empowered to do hereunder, such appointment to be evidenced by an instrument signed and acknowledged by said
Trustee, original or Substitute Trustee; and all acts done by said attorney-in-fact shall be valid, lawful and binding as if done by said Trustee, original or Substitute Trustee, in person. 

 

	26.	INDEMNIFICATION OF TRUSTEE 

 EXCEPT FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, TRUSTEE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACT OR OMISSION OR ERROR OF JUDGMENT. TRUSTEE MAY RELY ON ANY DOCUMENT BELIEVED BY IT IN GOOD FAITH TO BE GENUINE.
ALL MONEY RECEIVED BY TRUSTEE SHALL, UNTIL USED OR APPLIED AS HEREIN PROVIDED, BE HELD IN TRUST, AND TRUSTEE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INTEREST THEREON. GRANTOR SHALL INDEMNIFY TRUSTEE AGAINST ALL LIABILITY AND EXPENSES THAT IT MAY INCUR IN THE
PERFORMANCE OF ITS DUTIES HEREUNDER EXCEPT FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 

  
 21 

	27.	ACCEPTANCE BY TRUSTEE 

 Trustee accepts its duties and obligations under this Deed of Trust and the Security Documents when this Deed of Trust, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law.

  

	28.	ENTIRE AGREEMENT 

 THIS DEED OF TRUST AND THE OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS IN EFFECT AS OF THE DATE HEREOF REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AS OF THE DATE HEREOF BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE FINANCING TRANSACTION DESCRIBED
IN THE INDENTURE AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

 

	29.	MATURITY OF OBLIGATIONS 

 The maturity date of the Obligations under the Indenture is October 1, 2020. 
  

	30.	EVIDENCE OF INSURANCE

policy from or through a particular agent, insurer or other person or a particular type or class of agent, insurer or other person. 
  

	31.	FUTURE ADVANCES 

 This Deed of Trust is given for the purpose of creating a lien on the Mortgaged Property and expressly used to secure not only the existing Obligations, but also (i) all extensions, renewals,
modifications or re-amortizations of the Obligations, all increases or additions to the Obligations, all loans and future advances and re-advances made by any existing or future Secured Party to the Grantor or the Issuer pursuant to the Security
Documents, and (ii) future advances, whether such advances are obligatory or to be made at the option of any Secured Party or otherwise, to the same extent as if such future advances were made, whether under the Indenture, any of the other
Security Documents or otherwise on the date of the execution of this Deed of Trust, and creates a lien for all advances regardless of who is the owner of the Mortgaged Property at the time such advances are made. 

  
 22 

	32.	MULTIPLE GRANTORS 

 If this Deed of Trust is executed by two or more Grantors, each Exhibit shall include a designation identifying which Grantor owns an interest in each tract of Land, each Mortgaged Lease and each Easement
Right. The representations, warranties, and covenants made by a Grantor herein shall apply to each Grantor as to its respective Mortgaged Property. 
  

	33.	ONCOR SEPARATENESS 

 (a) Beneficiary, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, acknowledges (i) the legal separateness of the Issuer and the Grantor from the Subsidiaries of Energy Future Intermediate Holding Company
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Oncor Subsidiaries”), (ii) that the lenders under the Oncor Credit Facility and the noteholders under the Oncor Subsidiaries’ indentures have likely advanced funds thereunder
in reliance upon the separateness of the Oncor Subsidiaries from the Issuer and the Grantors, (iii) that the Oncor Subsidiaries have assets and liabilities that are separate from those of Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, (iv) that
the Obligations owing under the Security Documents are obligations and liabilities of the Issuer and the Guarantors only, and are not the obligations or liabilities of the Oncor Subsidiaries, (v) that the Secured Parties shall look solely to
the Issuer, the Guarantors and their assets, and not to any assets, or to the pledge of any assets, owned by the Oncor Subsidiaries, for the repayment of any amounts payable pursuant to the Security Documents and for satisfaction of any other
Obligations owing to the Secured Parties under the Security Documents, and (vi) that none of the Oncor Subsidiaries shall be personally liable to the Secured Parties for any amounts payable, or any other liability, under the Security Documents.

 (b) Beneficiary, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, shall not (i) initiate any legal
proceeding to procure the appointment of an administrative receiver, or (ii) institute any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, winding up, liquidation, or any like proceeding under applicable law, against any of the Oncor Subsidiaries, or
against any of the Oncor Subsidiaries’ assets. Beneficiary, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that each of the Oncor Subsidiaries is a third party beneficiary of the forgoing covenant and shall have the right
to specifically enforce such covenant in any proceeding at law or in equity. 
  

	34.	MORTGAGED LEASES 

 (a) Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Grantor represents and warrants to Beneficiary that, with respect to each Mortgaged Lease, (i) the Mortgaged Lease is unmodified and in full
force and effect, (ii) all rent and other charges therein have been paid to the extent they are payable to the date hereof, (iii) Grantor enjoys the quiet and peaceful possession of the property demised thereby, (iv) Grantor is not in
default under any of the terms thereof and there are no circumstances which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default thereunder, and (v) the lessor thereunder is not in default under any of
the terms or provisions thereof on the part of the lessor to be observed or performed (but this statement is made for the benefit of and may only be relied upon by Beneficiary and the Secured Parties) except in the case of each of the matters
described in clauses (i) through (v) of this sentence, where the failure of such statements to be true could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Grantor shall promptly pay, when due and payable, the rent and

  
 23 

 
other charges payable pursuant to the Mortgaged Lease, and will timely perform and observe all of the other terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by Grantor as
lessee under the Mortgaged Lease. Grantor shall notify Beneficiary in writing of any default by Grantor in the performance or observance of any terms, covenants or conditions on the part of Grantor to be performed or observed under the Mortgaged
Lease within ten (10) days after Grantor knows of such default. Grantor shall, promptly following the receipt thereof, deliver a copy of any notice of default given to Grantor by the lessor pursuant to the Mortgaged Lease and promptly notify
Beneficiary in writing of any default by the lessor in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions on the part of the lessor to be performed or observed thereunder. Unless required under the terms of the Mortgaged
Lease, except as set forth in the Indenture, Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or withheld in Beneficiary’s sole and absolute discretion) (A) terminate, or surrender the Mortgaged
Lease, or (B) enter into any modification of the Mortgaged Lease which materially impairs the practical realization of the security interests granted by this Deed of Trust, and any such attempted termination, modification or surrender without
Beneficiary’s written consent shall be void. Grantor shall, within thirty (30) days after written request from Beneficiary, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from the lessor and deliver to Beneficiary a certificate setting
forth the name of the tenant thereunder and stating that the Mortgaged Lease is in full force and effect, is unmodified or, if the Mortgaged Lease has been modified, the date of each modification (together with copies of each such modification),
that no notice of termination thereof has been served on Grantor, stating that to the best of lessor’s knowledge, no default or event which with notice or lapse of time (or both) would become a default is existing under the Mortgaged Lease,
stating the date to which rent has been paid, and specifying the nature of any defaults, if any, and containing such other statements and representations as may be reasonably requested by Beneficiary. 

(b) No Merger; Acquisition; Power of Attorney. So long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unperformed, the
fee title to and the leasehold estate in the premises subject to each Mortgaged Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct notwithstanding the union of such estates in the lessor or Grantor, or in a third party, by purchase
or otherwise. If Grantor acquires the fee title or any other estate, title or interest in the property demised by the Mortgaged Lease, or any part thereof, the lien of this Deed of Trust shall attach to, cover and be a lien upon such acquired
estate, title or interest and the same shall thereupon be and become a part of the Mortgaged Property with the same force and effect as if specifically encumbered herein. Grantor agrees to execute all instruments and documents that Beneficiary may
reasonably require to ratify, confirm and further evidence the lien of this Deed of Trust on the acquired estate, title or interest. Furthermore, Grantor hereby appoints Beneficiary as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver,
following an Event of Default, all such instruments and documents in the name and on behalf of Grantor. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable as long as any portion of the Obligations remains unpaid. 

(c) New Leases. If the Mortgaged Lease shall be terminated prior to the natural expiration of its term due to
default by Grantor or any tenant thereunder, and if, pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgaged Lease, Beneficiary or its designee shall acquire from the lessor a new lease of the premises subject to the Mortgaged Lease, Grantor shall have no
right, title or interest in or to such new lease or the leasehold estate created thereby, or renewal privileges therein contained. 

  
 24 

 (d) No Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, this Deed of Trust shall not constitute an assignment of any Mortgaged Lease within the meaning of any provision thereof prohibiting its assignment and Beneficiary shall have no liability or obligation thereunder by reason of its acceptance
of this Deed of Trust. Beneficiary shall be liable for the obligations of the tenant arising out of any Mortgaged Lease for only that period of time for which Beneficiary is in possession of the premises demised thereunder or has acquired, by
foreclosure or otherwise, and is holding all of Grantor’s right, title and interest therein. 
 This Deed
of Trust has been duly executed by Grantor as of the date first above written and is intended to be effective as of such date.
