 3. Registered Exchange Offer. 

(a) Unless the Exchange Offer shall not be permissible under applicable law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in
Section 6(a) hereof have been complied with), the Company shall (i) cause to be filed with the Commission, an Exchange Offer Registration Statement under the Securities Act relating to the Exchange Notes and the Exchange Offer,
(ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement 

  
 -3- 

 
to become effective, (iii) in connection with the foregoing, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file (A) all pre-effective amendments to such Exchange Offer Registration
Statement as may be necessary in order to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective, (B) if applicable, a post-effective amendment to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the
Securities Act and (C) cause all necessary filings in connection with the registration and qualification of the Exchange Notes to be made under the state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit Consummation
of the Exchange Offer, and (iv) upon the effectiveness of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, commence the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall be on the appropriate form permitting registration of the
Exchange Notes to be offered in exchange for the Transfer Restricted Notes and to permit resales of Initial Notes held by Broker-Dealers as contemplated by Section 3(c) hereof. 

(b) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be effective continuously
and shall keep the Exchange Offer open for a period of not less than the minimum period required under applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that in no event shall such period be
less than 20 Business Days after the date notice of the Exchange Offer is mailed or transmitted to the Holders. The Company shall cause the Exchange Offer to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws. No securities other than the
Exchange Notes shall be included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer to be Consummated as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 365 days after the Closing Date (or if such 365th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day). 

(c) The Company shall indicate in a “Plan of Distribution” section contained in the Prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement that any Broker-Dealer who holds Initial Notes that are Transfer Restricted Notes and that were acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than Transfer Restricted
Notes acquired directly from the Company), may exchange such Initial Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer; however, such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must, therefore,
deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resales of the Exchange Notes received by such Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, which prospectus delivery requirement may be satisfied by the delivery by
such Broker-Dealer of the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. Such “Plan of Distribution” section shall also contain all other information with respect to such resales by Broker-Dealers that the Commission
may require in order to permit such resales pursuant thereto, but such “Plan of Distribution” shall not name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose the amount of Initial Notes held by any such Broker-Dealer except to the extent required by the
Commission. The Company and the Representatives acknowledge and agree that they do not believe that under current law, policies and interpretations of the Commission naming any such Broker-Dealer or disclosing the amount of Initial Notes held by any
such Broker-Dealer would be required. 

  
 -4- 

 (d) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions of Section 6(c) hereof to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of Initial Notes acquired by Broker-Dealers for
their own accounts as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Securities Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced
from time to time, for a period ending on the earliest of (i) 180 days from the date on which the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective, (ii) the date on which a Broker-Dealer is no longer required to deliver a
prospectus in connection with market-making or other trading activities and (iii) the date on which all the Exchange Notes covered by such Exchange Offer Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Exchange Offer Registration
Statement. 
 (e) The Company shall provide sufficient copies of the latest version of the Prospectus contained in such Exchange Offer
Registration Statement to Broker-Dealers promptly upon request at any time during such 180-day (or shorter as provided in the foregoing sentence) period in order to facilitate such resales. 

4. Shelf Registration. 

(a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Company is not required to file an Exchange Offer Registration Statement or to consummate the
Exchange Offer because the Exchange Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a) hereof have been complied with), (ii) for any reason the Exchange Offer is not Consummated
within 365 days after the Closing Date (or if such 365th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), or (iii) with respect to any Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes
(A) such Holder is prohibited by applicable law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, or (B) such Holder may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a
prospectus and that the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by such Holder, or (C) such Holder is a Broker-Dealer and holds Initial Notes acquired directly from the
Company or one of their affiliates, then, upon such Holder’s request, the Company shall: 
 (x) use its commercially reasonable efforts
to file a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which may be an amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in either event, the “Shelf Registration Statement”), no later than the
later of (i) the 90th day after the date such filing obligation arises and (ii) the 365th day after the Closing Date (or if such 365th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) (such later date being the “Shelf Filing Deadline”), which Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for resales of all
Transfer Restricted Notes the Holders of which shall have provided the information required pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof; and 
 (y)
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or before the 90th day after the Shelf Filing Deadline (or if such
90th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day). 
 The Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the 

  
 -5- 

 
provisions of Sections 6(b) and (c) hereof to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of Initial Notes by the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes entitled to the
benefit of this Section 4(a), and to ensure that it conforms with the requirements of this Agreement, the Securities Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a period of at least one year
following the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement (or shorter period that will terminate when all the Initial Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement or cease to
be Transfer Restricted Notes) (the “Effectiveness Period”); provided, however, that the one year period referred to above shall be extended by both (I) the aggregate number of days comprising all Shelf Suspension Periods
and (II) the number of days during which such Shelf Registration Statement shall cease to be effective or shall otherwise be unavailable for the resale of Initial Notes as contemplated hereby. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time, the Company may delay the filing of any Shelf Registration Statement
or delay or suspend the effectiveness thereof, for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 60 consecutive days or more than three times during any 12-month period, but in any event not more than 120 days in the aggregate in any 12-month
period (each, a “Shelf Suspension Period”), if the Board of Directors of the Company determines reasonably and in good faith that the filing of any such Shelf Registration Statement or the continuing effectiveness thereof would
require the disclosure of non-public material information that, in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, would be detrimental to the Company if so disclosed or would otherwise materially adversely affect a financing,
acquisition, disposition, merger or other material transaction or such action is required by applicable law. Any Shelf Suspension Period pursuant to this Section 4(a) shall begin on the date specified in a written notice given by the Company to
the Holders and shall end on the date specified in a subsequent written notice given by the Company to the Holders. 
 (b) Provision by
Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes may include any of its Transfer Restricted Notes in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and
until such Holder furnishes to the Company in writing, within 10 Business Days after receipt of a request therefor, such information as the Company may reasonably request for use in connection with any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or
preliminary Prospectus included therein. Each Holder as to which any Shelf Registration Statement is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously
furnished to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading. 
 5. Additional Interest. If (i) the Exchange Offer
has not been Consummated within 365 days after the Closing Date (or if such 365th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) or a Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed
by the Shelf Filing Deadline or (ii) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective or, in the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, fail to be usable for its
intended purpose during the Effectiveness Period (except as specifically permitted herein, including with respect to any Shelf Suspension Period as provided in Section 4(a) hereof or because of the sale of all Transfer Restricted Notes under
such Registration Statement) without 

  
 -6- 

 
being succeeded promptly by a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure and that is itself promptly declared effective (each such event referred to in
clauses (i) and (ii), a “Registration Default”), the Company hereby agrees that the interest rate borne by the Transfer Restricted Notes shall be increased by 0.25% per annum during the 90-day period immediately following
the occurrence of any Registration Default and shall increase by an additional 0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period, but in no event shall such increase exceed 1.00% per annum. Following the earlier of (x) the cure of all
Registration Defaults relating to any particular Transfer Restricted Notes and (y) the day on which there are no outstanding Transfer Restricted Notes, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Notes will be reduced to the
original interest rate borne by such Transfer Restricted Notes; provided, however, that, if after any such reduction in interest rate, a different Registration Default occurs, the interest rate borne by the relevant Transfer Restricted Notes
shall again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provisions. Additional Interest shall be payable at the same times, in the same manner, and to the same persons as ordinary interest on the Initial Notes. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the amount of additional interest payable shall not increase because more than one Registration
Default has occurred and is pending and (ii) a Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes that is not entitled to the benefits of the Shelf Registration Statement (because, e.g., such Holder has not elected to include information or has not timely
delivered such information to the Company pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof) shall not be entitled to additional interest with respect to a Registration Default that pertains to such Shelf Registration Statement following the time such Holder is
no longer entitled to the benefits of such Shelf Registration Statement (e.g., such time as the Holder elects not to include information or following the deadline to timely deliver information to the Company pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof).

 6. Registration Procedures. 

(a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall comply with all of the provisions
of Section 6(c) hereof, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such exchange to permit the sale of Transfer Restricted Notes being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and shall comply
with all of the following provisions: 
 (i) If in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company there is a question as to whether the
Exchange Offer is permitted by applicable law, the Company hereby agrees to seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision from the Commission allowing the Company to Consummate an Exchange Offer for such Initial Notes. The Company hereby
agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue the issuance of such a decision to the Commission staff level but shall not be required to take action to effect a change of Commission policy. The Company hereby agrees, however, to
(A) participate in telephonic conferences with the Commission, (B) deliver to the Commission staff an analysis prepared by counsel to the Company setting forth the legal bases, if any, upon which such counsel has concluded that such an
Exchange Offer should be permitted and (C) diligently pursue a favorable resolution by the Commission staff of such submission. 
 (ii)
As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes shall furnish, upon the request 

  
 -7- 

 
of the Company, prior to the Consummation thereof, a written representation to the Company (which may be contained in the letter of transmittal contemplated by the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an affiliate of the Company, (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in, a distribution of the Exchange
Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and (C) it is acquiring the Exchange Notes in its ordinary course of business. In addition, all such Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes shall otherwise cooperate in the Company’s preparations for
the Exchange Offer. Each Holder, including any Holder that is a Broker-Dealer, shall acknowledge and agree that any such Holder using the Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the notes to be acquired in the Exchange Offer
(1) could not under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position of the Commission enunciated in Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. (available June 5, 1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings
Corporation (available May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the Commission’s letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and similar no-action letters (which may include any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause
(i) above), and (2) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction and that such a secondary resale transaction should be covered by an
effective registration statement containing the selling note holder information required by Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K if the resales are of Exchange Notes obtained by such Holder
in exchange for Initial Notes acquired by such Holder directly from the Company. 
 (b) Shelf Registration Statement. In connection
with any requirement to file a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall comply with all the provisions of Section 6(c) hereof and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of the
Transfer Restricted Notes being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the Commission a Registration
Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate form under the Securities Act, which form shall be available for the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Notes in accordance with the reasonable intended method or methods of
distribution thereof. 
 (c) General Provisions. In connection with any Registration Statement and any Prospectus required by this
Agreement to permit the sale or resale of Transfer Restricted Notes (including, without limitation, any Registration Statement and the related Prospectus required to permit resales of Initial Notes by Broker-Dealers), the Company shall: 

(i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and provide all requisite financial
statements as required by the Securities Act or any regulation thereunder; upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Transfer Restricted Notes during the period required by this Agreement, the Company shall
file promptly an appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus (or if permitted file with the Commission a document incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement), in the case of clause (A),
correcting any such misstatement or omission, and, in the case 

  
 -8- 

 
of either clause (A) or (B), use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective and such Registration Statement and the related Prospectus to become
usable for their intended purpose(s) as soon as practicable thereafter; 
 (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
post-effective amendments to the applicable Registration Statement as may reasonably be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for the applicable period set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable, or such shorter period
as will terminate when all Transfer Restricted Notes covered by such Registration Statement have been sold; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under
the Securities Act, and to comply with the applicable provisions of Rules 424 and 430A under the Securities Act in a timely manner; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by
such Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the reasonable intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus; 

(iii) advise the underwriter(s), if any, and selling Holders reasonably promptly and, if requested by such Persons, confirm such advice in
writing, (A) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective, (B) of
any request by the Commission for amendments to the Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act or of the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification of the Transfer Restricted Notes for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any
proceeding for any of the preceding purposes, or (D) of the existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto,
or any document incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading. If at any time the
Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of
the Transfer Restricted Notes under state securities or blue sky laws, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order as soon as practicable thereafter; 

(iv) furnish without charge to each selling Holder named in any Registration Statement and each of the underwriter(s), if any, before filing
with the Commission, copies of any Registration Statement or any Prospectus included therein or any amendments or supplements to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference after the initial
filing of such Registration Statement but excluding exhibits thereto to the extent such documents are available through the Commission’s EDGAR system), which documents will be subject to the review and comment of such Holders and
underwriter(s), if any, in connection with such sale, if any, for a reasonable period (which shall not be less than three Business Days), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to reflect in any

  
 -9- 

 
such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including all such documents incorporated by reference) any reasonable
comments that such Holders and underwriters, if any, propose; 
 (v) promptly prior to the filing of any document that is to be incorporated
by reference into a Registration Statement or Prospectus, provide copies of such document to each selling Holder named in any such Registration Statement, and to the underwriter(s), if any, make the Company’s representatives available for

 -11-

(B) set forth in full or incorporate by reference in the underwriting agreement, if any, the indemnification provisions and

 If at any time the representations and warranties of the
Company contemplated in Section 6(c)(xi)(A)(1) hereof cease to be true and correct, the Company shall so advise the underwriter(s), if any, and each selling Holder promptly and, if requested by such Persons, shall confirm such advice in
writing; 
 (xii) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Notes, cooperate with the selling Holders, the underwriter(s), if any,
and their respective counsel in connection with the registration and qualification of the Transfer Restricted Notes under the state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the selling Holders or underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably
request and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to the service of process in suits or to taxation, other than as to matters and transactions relating
to the Registration Statement, in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject; 
 (xiii) shall issue, upon the request of any Holder of
Initial Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement, Exchange Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes surrendered to the Company by such Holder in exchange therefor or being sold by
such Holder; such Exchange Notes to be registered in the name of such Holder or in the name of the purchaser(s) of such Exchange Notes, as the case may be; in return, the Initial Notes held by such Holder shall be surrendered to the Company for

 (xiv) cooperate with the selling Holders and the underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery

any, may request at least two Business Days prior to any sale of Transfer Restricted Notes made by such Holders or underwriter(s); 

  
 -12- 

 (xv) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by
the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter(s), if any, to consummate the disposition of such Transfer
Restricted Notes, subject to the proviso contained in Section 6(c)(xii) hereof; 
 (xvi) if any fact or event contemplated by
Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof shall exist or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document
so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of Transfer Restricted Notes, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading; 
 (xvii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a CUSIP number for all Notes not later than the effective date of
the Registration Statement covering such Notes, provide the Trustee under the Indenture with printed certificates for such Notes which are in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company and take all other action necessary to ensure
that all such Notes are eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company; 
 (xviii) cooperate and assist in any filings required to
be made with FINRA and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of FINRA; 

(xix) otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make
generally available to its note holders, as soon as practicable, a consolidated earnings statement meeting the requirements of Rule 158 (which need not be audited) for the twelve-month period (A) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in
which Transfer Restricted Notes are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best efforts Underwritten Offering or (B) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal
quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement; and 
 (xx) provide promptly to each Holder upon request each
document filed with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 and Section 15 of the Exchange Act. 
 Each Holder
shall agree by acquisition of a Transfer Restricted Note that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the existence of any fact of the kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of
Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xvi) hereof, or until it is advised in writing
(the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus. If so directed by the Company, each
Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Notes that was current at the time of receipt
of such notice. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the time period regarding the effectiveness of such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days during
the period from and including 

  
 -13- 

 
the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof to and including the date when each selling Holder covered by such Registration Statement shall have received
the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(xvi) hereof or shall have received the Advice; provided, however, that no such suspension or extension shall be taken into account in determining whether
additional interest is due pursuant to Section 5 hereof or the amount of such additional interest, it being agreed that the Company’s option to suspend use of a Registration Statement pursuant to this paragraph shall be treated as a
Registration Default for purposes of Section 5 hereof. 
 (d) Following the Consummation of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of
an applicable Shelf Registration Statement and for so long as the Notes are outstanding, if, in the judgment of the Representatives, the Initial Purchasers or any of their affiliates (as such term is defined in the Securities Act) are required to
deliver a prospectus in connection with sales of, or market-making activities with respect to, the Notes, the Company agrees to periodically amend the applicable Registration Statement so that the information contained therein complies with the
requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, to amend the applicable Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus or the documents incorporated therein when necessary to reflect any material changes in the information
provided therein so that the Registration Statement and the prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
existing as of the date the prospectus is so delivered, not misleading and to provide the Initial Purchasers with copies of each amendment or supplement filed and such other documents as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request. The Company
hereby expressly acknowledges that the indemnification and contribution provisions of Section 8 hereof are specifically applicable and relate to each offering memorandum, Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement referred to
in this Section 6(d). 
 7. Registration Expenses. 

(a) All reasonable and documented expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by
the Company, regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including, without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses (including filings made by any Holder with FINRA (and, if applicable, the fees and
expenses of any “qualified independent underwriter” and one counsel that may be required by the rules and regulations of FINRA)); (ii) all fees and expenses of compliance with federal securities and state securities or blue sky laws;
(iii) all expenses of printing (including printing certificates for the Exchange Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and printing of Prospectuses), messenger and delivery services and telephone; (iv) all fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, and subject to Section 7(b) hereof, the Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes; (v) all application and filing fees in connection with listing the Exchange Notes on a securities exchange or automated quotation system
pursuant to the requirements thereof; and (vi) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the Company (including the expenses of any special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance).

  
 -14- 

 The Company will, in any event, bear its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all
salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by the Company. 

(b) In connection with any Shelf Registration Statement required by this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Holders of Transfer
Restricted Notes being registered pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement for the reasonable fees and disbursements of not more than one counsel as may be chosen by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Notes
for whose benefit such Shelf Registration Statement is being prepared. 
 8. Indemnification. 

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Holder and (ii) each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any Holder (any of the Persons referred to in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a “controlling person”) and (iii) the respective
officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of any Holder or any controlling person (any Person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnified Holder”),
to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and expenses (including, without limitation, and as incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable costs of investigating, preparing,
pursuing, settling, compromising, paying or defending any claim or action, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to any Indemnified
Holder), joint or several, based upon or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses are caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that is made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any of the Holders furnished in writing to the Company by any
of the Holders expressly for use therein. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. 

In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought or asserted against
any of the Indemnified Holders with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company, such Indemnified Holder (or the Indemnified Holder controlled by such controlling person) shall promptly notify the Company in writing; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by
such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in case any such action or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnified Holder and it shall notify the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company shall be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that the Company shall elect, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the 

  
 -15- 

 
indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such Indemnified Holder, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Holder (who
shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Holder, be counsel to the Company); provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Holder and the indemnifying party and an Indemnified Holder shall
have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Holder in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified
Holders which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the Indemnified Holder or Holders shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense
of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Holder or Holders. After notice from the Company to such Indemnified Holder of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Company shall not be liable under this Section 8 to such Indemnified
Holder for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Holder, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation unless (i) the Indemnified
Holder shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence representing the Indemnified Holders who are parties to such action or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel
satisfactory to the Indemnified Holder to represent the Indemnified Holder within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying
party. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of each Indemnified Holder, settle or compromise
or consent to the entry of judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified
Holder is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Holder from all liability arising out of such action, claim, litigation or proceeding and
(ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnified Holder. 

(b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its respective
directors and officers, and any Person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and
agents of each such Person, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each of the Indemnified Holders, but only with respect to claims and actions based on information relating to such Holder furnished in writing by such
Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Company, or their respective directors or officers or any such controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought
against a Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes, such Holder shall have the rights and duties given the Company, its directors and officers and such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to each Indemnified Holder by
Section 8(a) hereof. 
 (c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party under
Section 8(a) or (b) hereof (other than by reason of exceptions provided in those 

  
 -16- 

 
Sections) in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions or expenses referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
Company, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, from the Initial Placement (which in the case of the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds to the Company from the Initial Placement (before deducting expenses)),
or if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Indemnified Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Indemnified Holders, on the other hand, and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in the second paragraph of Section 8(a) hereof, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.

 The Company and each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 8(c) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, none of the Holders
(and its related Indemnified Holders) shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Holder with respect to any Transfer Restricted Notes exceeds the
amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(c) are several in
proportion to the respective principal amount of Initial Notes held by each of the Holders hereunder and not joint. 
 9. Rule
144A. The Company hereby agrees with each Holder, if any time during the period of one year from the date of this Agreement the Company is not subject to the information requirements of the Exchange Act, for so long as any Transfer
Restricted Notes remain outstanding, to make available to any Holder or beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Notes in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Notes from such Holder or beneficial
owner, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. 

  
 -17- 

 10. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Holder may participate in any
Underwritten Registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Transfer Restricted Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all reasonable questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

11. Selection of Underwriters. The Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement who desire
to do so may sell such Transfer Restricted Notes in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) that will administer such offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Notes included in such offering; provided, however, that such investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) must be reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 

12. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Remedies. The Company hereby agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a
breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agree to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. 

(b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to
its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with
the rights granted to the holders of the Company’s securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. 
 (c) Adjustments
Affecting the Notes. The Company will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to the Notes that would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Holders to Consummate any Exchange Offer. 

(d) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to
or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company has (i) in the case of Section 5 hereof and this Section 12(d)(i), obtained the written consent of each Holder affected by any such amendment, modification,
or supplement and (ii) in the case of all other provisions hereof, obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Notes (excluding any Transfer Restricted Notes held by the
Company or its respective Affiliates); provided, however, that no consent is necessary from any Holder in the event that this Agreement is amended, modified or supplemented for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency that
does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to 

  
 -18- 

 
the rights of Holders whose notes are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights of other Holders whose notes are not being tendered
pursuant to such Exchange Offer may be given by the Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Notes being tendered or registered; provided, however, that, with respect to any matter that directly or
indirectly affects the rights of any Initial Purchaser hereunder, the Company shall obtain the written consent of each such Initial Purchaser with respect to which such amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver, consent or departure is to be
effective. 
 (e) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by
