Noble Corporation plc
Summary of Director Compensation

Annual Retainer. Noble Corporation plc, a company organized under the laws of England and Wales, (the “Company”) pays each of its non-employee directors an annual retainer of $50,000. Under the Noble Corporation plc 2017 Director Omnibus Plan (the “Director Plan”), non-employee directors may elect to receive up to all of the retainer in shares. The number of shares to be issued under the plan in any particular quarter is generally determined using the average of the high and low trading price on the date of grant. 
Board Meeting Fees. In addition, the Company pays its non-employee directors a Board meeting fee of $2,000 and $1,000 per telephonic meeting for meetings that exceed 15 minutes. The Company pays each member of its committees a committee meeting fee of $2,000 per in-person meeting and $1,000 per telephonic meeting for meetings that exceed 15 minutes. The Company also reimburses directors for travel, lodging and related expenses they may incur in attending Board and committee meetings, and related activities in connection with the duties as director.
Committee Fees. The chair of the audit committee and the compensation committee receives an annual retainer of $20,000, and the chair of each other standing Board committee receives an annual retainer of $10,000. The lead director also receives an annual fee of $22,500.
Annual Award. Under the Director Plan, each annually-determined award of a variable number of restricted shares or share units is made on a date selected by the Board, or if no such date is selected by the Board, the date on which the Board action approving such award is taken. The compensation committee has adopted a policy providing that all equity awards to directors under the Director Plan (other than shares issued to pay the quarterly retainer discussed above) will include a one-year vesting period. In lieu of an equity award, the Board may choose for the annual director award to be paid in cash.Exhibit

2025 
 Dated as of March 31, 2020 

TO EACH OF THE PURCHASERS LISTED IN 

SCHEDULE A HERETO: 
 Ladies and
Gentlemen: 
 SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD., a Maryland corporation (the
“Company”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof (each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) as follows: 

SECTION 1. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES; INTEREST RATE. 

Section 1.1. Authorization of Notes. The Company will authorize the issue and sale of $85,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of its 3.90% Series 2020A Senior Notes, due March 31, 2025 (the “2020A Notes”; such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13). The
Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1. Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B and, for purposes of this Agreement, the rules of
construction set forth in Section 22.5 shall govern; and references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement.

 The Series 2020A Notes, together with each Series of Additional Notes which may from time to time be issued pursuant to the provisions of
Section 2.4, are collectively referred to as the “Notes” (such term shall also include any such notes as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time pursuant to
Section 17 and including any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13). 

Section 1.2. Changes in Interest Rate. (a) If at any time a Below Investment Grade Event occurs, then: 

(i) as of the date of the occurrence of the Below Investment Grade Event to and until the date on which such Below Investment
Grade Event is no longer continuing (as evidenced by the receipt and delivery to the holders of the Notes of evidence of a Rating necessary to cure such Below Investment Grade Event), the Notes shall bear interest at the Adjusted Interest Rate; and

			
	SOLAR SENIOR CAPITAL LTD.	  	NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

  

 (ii) the Company shall promptly, and in any event within ten
(10) Business Days after knowledge that a Below Investment Grade Event has occurred, notify the holders of the Notes in writing, sent in the manner provided in Section 18, that a Below 

Investment Grade Event has occurred, which written notice shall confirm the effective date of the Below Investment Grade Event and that the
Adjusted Interest Rate will accrue from the date of such Below Investment Grade Event and will be payable in respect of the Notes in consequence thereof. 

(b) The fees and expenses of any NRSRO and all other costs incurred in connection with obtaining, affirming or appealing a Rating pursuant to
this Section 1.2 shall be borne solely by the Company. 
 (c) As used herein, “Adjusted Interest
Rate” means the interest rate on the Notes shall be the rate per annum which is 1.00% above the stated rate of such Notes. The Adjusted Interest Rate with respect to the Series 2020A Notes shall be 4.90% per annum. 

(d) As used herein, a “Below Investment Grade Event” shall occur if 

(i) at any time the Company has obtained a Rating of the Notes from only one NRSRO, the then most recent Rating from such NRSRO
that is in full force and effect (not having been withdrawn) is less than Investment Grade; or 
 (ii) at any time the
Company has obtained a Rating of the Notes from two NRSROs, the then lower of the most recent Ratings from the NRSROs that are in full force and effect (not having been withdrawn) is less than Investment Grade; or 

(iii) at any time the Company has obtained a Rating of the Notes from three or more NRSROs, the then second lowest of the most
recent Ratings from the NRSROs that is in full force and effect (not having been withdrawn) is less than Investment Grade (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, if two or more of the most recent Ratings are equal or equivalent as the lowest
such Rating, then one of such equal or equivalent Ratings will be deemed to be the second lowest Rating for purposes of such determination); or 

(iv) at any time the Company shall have failed to receive and deliver to the holders of the Notes a Rating of the Notes from at
least one NRSRO as required pursuant to Section 9.11. 
 (e) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, the Notes shall bear interest at the Default Rate. 
 SECTION 2. SALE AND
PURCHASE OF NOTES. 
 Section 2.1. Purchase and Sale of Notes. Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to each Purchaser and each Purchaser will purchase from the Company, at the Closing provided for in Section 3, Series 2020A Notes in the
principal amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Purchasers’ obligations hereunder are several and not joint obligations

 Section 2.2. [Reserved]. 

Section 2.3 Guarantee. The payment by the Company of all amounts due with respect to the Notes and the performance
by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement will be absolutely and unconditionally guaranteed by any Subsidiary that delivers a guaranty (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, Standard Security Undertakings or a Permitted SBIC
Guarantee) pursuant to Section 9.7, pursuant to the Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 Section 2.4.
Additional Series of Notes. The Company may, from time to time, in its sole discretion but subject to the terms hereof, issue and sell one or more additional Series of its promissory notes under the provisions of this Agreement pursuant to a
supplement (a “Supplement”) substantially in the form of Exhibit S. Each additional Series of Notes (the “Additional Notes”) issued pursuant to a Supplement shall be subject to the
following terms and conditions: 
 (i) each Series of Additional Notes, when so issued, shall be differentiated from all
previous Series by sequential designation inscribed thereon; 
 (ii) Additional Notes of the same Series may consist of more
than one different and separate tranches and may differ with respect to outstanding principal amounts, maturity dates, interest rates and premiums, if any, and price and terms of redemption or payment prior to maturity, but all such different and
separate tranches of the same Series shall vote as a single class and constitute one Series; 
 (iii) each Series of
Additional Notes shall be dated the date of issue, bear interest at such rate or rates, mature on such date or dates, be subject to such mandatory and optional prepayment on the dates and at the premiums, if any, have such additional or different
conditions precedent to closing, such representations and warranties and such additional covenants as shall be specified in the Supplement under which such Additional Notes are issued and upon execution of any such Supplement, this Agreement shall
be amended (a) to reflect such additional covenants without further action on the part of the holders of the Notes outstanding under this Agreement, provided, that any such additional covenants shall inure to the benefit of all holders
of Notes so long as any Additional Notes issued pursuant to such Supplement remain outstanding, and (b) to reflect such representations and warranties as are contained in such Supplement for the benefit of the holders of such Additional Notes
in accordance with the provisions of Section 16; 
 (iv) each Series of Additional Notes issued
under this Agreement shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit 1 to Exhibit S hereto with such variations, omissions and insertions as are necessary or permitted hereunder;

(vi) all Additional Notes shall rank pari passu with all other outstanding Notes; and 

(vii) no Additional Notes shall be issued hereunder if at the time of issuance thereof and after giving effect to the

offer to purchase all or any portion of the outstanding Notes made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer shall provide each holder with
sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 10 Business Days. If the holders of more than 25% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such
offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least 5
Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and
no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. 
 Section 8.8. Make-Whole Amount and Modified Make-Whole Amount. The terms “Make-Whole Amount” and “Modified Make-Whole Amount” mean, with respect to
any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal; provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount and the Modified Make-Whole
Amount, the following terms have the following meanings: 
 “Applicable Percentage” in the case of the
computation of the Modified Make-Whole Amount for purposes of Section 8.9 means 1.00% (100 basis points) and in the case of a computation of the Make-Whole Amount for any other purpose means 0.50% (50 basis points).

 “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the
principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.9 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by
discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a
discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. 

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the sum of (x) the
Applicable Percentage plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal,
on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal
to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the
Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical
Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. In the case of each determination under
clause (i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding paragraph, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to
bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than
such Remaining Average Life and (2) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest
rate of the applicable Note. 
 “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the
number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (a) such Called Principal into (b) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (i) the principal component
of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (ii) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect
to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

 “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the
Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due
date; provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest
accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.9 or 12.1. 

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called

Section 8.9. Prepayment for Tax Reasons. (a) The Company shall have an option to prepay the affected Notes in
whole, but not in part, at any time, on giving not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Foreign Holders (which notice shall be irrevocable) by payment of the principal amount, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for
prepayment and with a premium in an amount equal to the Modified Make-Whole Amount, determined as of two Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment pursuant to this
Section 8.9, if (i) the Company (a) has or will become obliged to pay additional amounts as provided or referred to in Section 14.3 as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the
laws, regulations or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a
holding by a court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the date of the Closing and (b) in its business judgment, determines that such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures
available to it; or (ii) (a) any action has been taken by a taxing authority of, or any decision has been rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction in, the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein, including any actions specified in (i) above, whether or not such action was taken or decision was rendered with respect to the Company, or any change, amendment, application or interpretation shall be officially proposed, which, in
any such case, in the written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized legal standing, will result in a material probability that the Company will become obligated to pay additional amounts and (b) in its business judgment the Company
determines that such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to it; provided that no such notice of prepayment shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be
obliged to pay such additional amounts if a payment in respect of such Notes held by the Foreign Holders were then due. 
 (b) Prior to the
giving of any notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section 8.9, the Company shall deliver to the Foreign Holder of any Note to be prepaid (1) a certificate signed by two officers of the Company stating that the
Company is entitled to effect such prepayment and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company so to prepay have occurred and (2) in the case of a determination under (ii) above, an
opinion of independent legal advisers of recognized standing to the effect that there is a material probability that the Company will become obliged to pay such additional amounts as a result of such change or amendment. Upon the expiry of any such
notice as is referred to in this Section 8.9, the Company shall be bound to prepay such Note in accordance with this Section 8.9.

prepayment of any Note pursuant to Section 8.9(a), such Foreign Holder, if it then holds one or more such Notes in an aggregate amount equal to or greater than $5,000,000, shall have a
one-time option to reject such prepayment with respect to the prepayment arising as a result of the circumstances described in such notice; provided, however, if such Foreign Holder rejects such
prepayment, Section 14.3(a) shall no longer be operative with respect to any Notes held by such Foreign Holder arising out of the circumstances described in such notice, but not of such Foreign Holder’s right to
receive payments pursuant to Section 14.3(a) that may arise out of circumstances not described in such notice. To exercise such option, such Foreign Holder shall provide a rejection notice to the Company within five
Business Days after its receipt of the Company’s notice of prepayment. Such notice by a Foreign Holder shall be irrevocable and shall be binding on all subsequent Foreign Holders of such Foreign Holder’s Notes. 

(d) The provisions of Sections 8.2 and 8.5 shall not apply to any prepayment pursuant to this
Section 8.9.

requirement to maintain a level of Shareholders’ Equity (regardless of whether such provision is labeled or otherwise characterized as a covenant, a definition or a default) of the Company (a “Shareholders’ Equity
Covenant”) that is not set forth in this Agreement or (B) thereafter the Company or SUNS SPV LLC enters into any amendment, supplement, waiver, change, clarification, interpretation, consent or other modification to such
Shareholders’ Equity Covenant (or to any defined term contained or used in any Shareholders’ Equity Covenant) (which, for the avoidance of doubt for purposes of this Section 10.7(a), shall include any such change

Default no longer exists and (B) shall be deemed automatically deleted from this Agreement at such time as such Shareholders Equity Covenant is deleted or otherwise removed from the SUNS SPV Credit Agreement; provided, however,
for the avoidance of doubt, in the event the SUNS SPV Credit Agreement shall be terminated and not replaced, the terms of Section 10.7(a)(i) as set forth on the date of this agreement shall

an Event of Default then exists, such Incorporated Shareholders’ Equity Covenant shall only be deemed automatically deleted from this Agreement at such time, if it should occur, when such Default or Event of Default no longer exists;

consideration shall be given, pro rata, to the holders of the Notes; provided that, if any such fees under the SUNS SPV Credit Agreement are payable only to consenting holders, to the extent the holders of the Notes hereunder have an ability
to grant or withhold consent to such amendment or other modification pursuant to the terms hereof, such fees shall be payable to holders of Notes under this Agreement only to the extent such holders have approved the amendment or other modification.

by the Required Holders for purposes of maintaining clarity and consistency between the applicable sections of the Shareholders’ Equity Covenant and related defined terms contained or used therein and Section 10.7 and
related defined terms contained or used therein; provided that the execution and delivery of any such amendment shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such alteration or alterations, but shall merely be for the convenience of the
parties hereto.

Company Act Asset Coverage at any time. 
 (c) [Reserved].

been incorporated herein with respect to Section 10.7 and/or any defined term contained or used therein, as the case may be; provided that if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the
time Section 10.7, such Additional Financial Covenant(s) or Financial Covenant Modification(s) (and/or any defined term contained or used therein, as the case may be) is or are to be so excluded, terminated,
loosened, tightened, amended or modified under this Section 10.7(d), the prior written consent thereto of the Required Holders shall be required as a condition to the exclusion, termination, loosening, tightening or other
amendment or modification of such Section 10.7, such Additional Financial Covenant(s) or Financial Covenant Modification(s) (and/or any defined term contained or used therein, as the case may be); provided

Investment Company Act Asset Coverage.

the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the holders of the Notes) each and every amendment to this Agreement reasonably considered to be necessary or appropriate by the Required Holders for purposes of maintaining clarity and consistency
between the applicable sections of a Material Credit Facility and related defined terms contained or used therein and Section 10.7 and related defined terms contained or used therein; provided that the execution and
delivery of any such amendment shall not be a precondition to the effectiveness of such alteration or alterations, but shall merely be for the convenience of the parties hereto. 

(iii) The Company agrees that it will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary or Affiliate to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid
any consideration or remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any creditor of the Company as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any such creditor of any modification(s)
primarily with respect to the principal terms of an Additional Financial Covenant(s) the effect of which modification is to exclude, terminate, loosen, or otherwise amend or modify an Additional Financial Covenant(s), which exclusion, termination,
loosening, or other amendment or modification would require a similar change in this Agreement, unless such consideration or remuneration is concurrently paid, on the same terms, and in an amount bearing the same proportion to the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Notes as the amount paid to such other creditor bears to the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness owing by the Company to such other creditor, ratably to all of the holders of the Notes then outstanding;
provided that, if any such fees under the Material Credit Facility are payable only to consenting holders, to the extent the holders of the Notes hereunder have an ability to grant or withhold consent to such amendment or other modification

REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC. 
 Section 12.1.
Acceleration. (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in Section 11(h) or (i) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (vii) of
Section 11(i)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable.

protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein
specifically provided for), and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended
to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. 
 Section 12.2. Other
Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note
at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for
an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.

of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or Additional Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of

 within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same Series (and of the
same tranche if such Series has separate tranches), dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note

office of Goldman Sachs Bank USA in such jurisdiction. The Company may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in
such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction. 
 Section 14.2. Home
Office Payment. So long as any Purchaser or Additional Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will
pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount or Modified Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address specified
for such purpose below such Purchaser’s or Additional Purchaser’s name in Schedule A or attached to any Supplement to which such Additional Purchaser is a party, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser or
Additional Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made
concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser or Additional Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal
executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or Additional Purchaser or such
Person’s nominee, such Person will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes
pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser or
Additional Purchaser under this Agreement, including via any Supplement, and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 14.2. 

Section 14.3. Taxation. (a) All payments of principal, interest,
Make-Whole Amount and Modified Make-Whole Amount in respect of the Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, any taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges of whatsoever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by the United States, any other taxing jurisdiction from which or through which the Company makes payments or any political subdivision or any
authority thereof or therein having power to tax, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Company shall pay such additional amounts as will result in the receipt by any holders that are not U.S. persons as defined
in I.R.C. § 7701 (collectively, the “Foreign Holders”) or any other holder of such amounts as would have been received by the holder if no such withholding or deduction had been required, except that no such additional
amounts shall be payable in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that: 
 (1) is imposed or withheld
solely by reason of the existence of any present or former connection (other than the mere fact of being a Foreign Holder or the taxing of any enforcement action by a Foreign Holder under this Agreement) between any holder and the United States,
including such holder being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof;

trade or business in, the United States, (ii) being treated as having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, or (iii) having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States; 

(3) is an estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property or excise tax or any similar tax assessment or

that are entitled to vote within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3) of the Code (as in effect on the date of this Agreement or, in the case of a transfer to another Foreign Holder, as in effect on the date of such transfer) or that is a bank
making a loan entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code (as in effect on the date of this Agreement, or in the case of a transfer to another Foreign Holder, as in effect
on the date of such transfer); 
 (5) would not have been imposed but for the failure or inability (other than as a result of
Change in Law) of the beneficial owner or any holder to comply with the requirements of Section 14.3(c) or any other certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements (“Forms”)
concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of such beneficial owner or such holder, if such compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof or therein as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge; provided that the filing of such Forms would not impose any unreasonable burden on such holder or result in
any confidential or proprietary income tax return information being revealed, either directly or indirectly, to any Person (other than any tax authority), it being understood that the provision of United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8EXP does not impose an unreasonable burden on any holder or result in the disclosure of any confidential or proprietary income tax return information, and
provided further that such holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (5) upon the good faith completion and submission of such Forms (including refilings or renewals of filings) as may be specified in a
written request of the Company no later than 60 days after receipt by such holder of such written request (accompanied by copies of such Forms and related instructions);

measured by) the Foreign Holder’s net income by the United States of America, or by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such holder is organized or in which its principal office is located or in which
its applicable lending office is located, (ii) is a withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such holder at the time such holder becomes a party to this Agreement (or becomes a transferee of another holder) or is attributable to
such holder’s failure or inability (other than as a result of a Change in Law) to comply with Section 14.3(c) or (iii) is any withholding tax imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as of the date of

company or other fiscally transparent entity, or to any Foreign Holder if it is not the sole beneficial owner of the Note held by it, as the case may be. This exception, however, will apply only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with
respect to the trust or estate, or a beneficial owner or member of the partnership, limited liability company or other fiscally transparent entity, would not have been entitled to payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor,
beneficial owner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment. 
 (c) Within five days after the date that
any Foreign Holder becomes eligible for the benefits of this Agreement, such Foreign Holder shall provide, the Company with a properly executed original United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY or W-8EXP, as appropriate, or
any successor or other form prescribed by the United States Internal Revenue Service, certifying that it is not a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes and that either (i) it is entitled to the benefits of a tax
treaty with the United States that provides for a zero rate of withholding on interest on the date of this Agreement, (ii) it is receiving the interest payments under this Agreement in connection with a U.S. trade or business or (iii) it
is a foreign governmental entity, international organization or other organization entitled to exemption from U.S. income tax on investment income. Thereafter such Foreign Holder shall provide additional Forms
W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY or W-8EXP (or any successor or other form prescribed by the United States Internal Revenue Service) (i) to the extent a form previously provided has become inaccurate or invalid as a result of any action or change
in regard to the Foreign Holder or (ii) as reasonably requested in writing by the Company within 60 days of such written request, unless such Foreign Holder is unable to provide such form solely as a result of any change in, or amendment
to, the laws, regulations, or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings
(including a holding by any court of competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the date of the Closing. Any holder other than a Foreign Holder shall provide a
Form W-9.

 (d) if a payment made to a Foreign Holder would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax
imposed by FATCA if such Foreign Holder were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Foreign Holder shall deliver to the Company at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably
requested by the Company such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company as may be necessary for the Company
to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Company has complied with the Company’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the
holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this
