Coverage Ratio is being calculated but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made (the “Calculation Date”), then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated
giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning

Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For
purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any 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. 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 chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Company may designate.

Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided
that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the record date. Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents, each of

which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. Any notice given or action taken by a Holder or its
agents with regard to different parts of such principal amount pursuant to this paragraph shall have the same effect as if given or taken by separate Holders of each such different part. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including the Depository that is the Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a

Notices given by publication shall be deemed given on the first date on which publication is made and notices given by first class mail, postage prepaid, shall be deemed given five calendar days after mailing. 
 In case by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail
notice of any event to Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such
notice for every purpose hereunder. 
 Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the
Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the
validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 SECTION 108. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and
Section headings herein, the Table of Contents and the reconciliation and tie between the TIA and this Indenture are for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way affect the construction of,
or modify or restrict, any of the terms or provisions hereof. 
 SECTION 109. Successors and Assigns. All agreements of the Company in
this Indenture and the Notes shall bind its successors. All agreements of the Co-Issuer in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. All agreements of each
Subsidiary Guarantor in this Indenture shall bind its successors, except as otherwise provided in Section 1208 hereof. 
 SECTION 110.
Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby. 
 SECTION 111. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any
Person, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any Note Registrar and their successors hereunder and the Holders any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 SECTION 112. Governing Law. This Indenture, the Notes and any Subsidiary Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of New York. This Indenture is subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act that are required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such provisions. 
  

 46 

 SECTION 113. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or
Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Note shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest need not be made on such date, but may be made on
the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity or Maturity; provided that no interest shall accrue for purposes of such payment for the
period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 114. No
Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any liability for any obligations of the
Company, the Co-Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation to the extent permitted by applicable law;
provided that the foregoing shall not limit any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee and any of the Company’s or the Co-Issuer’s obligations under the Notes. Each Holder by accepting a Note and the
related Subsidiary Guarantee waives and releases all such liability to the extent permitted by applicable law. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees. 
 SECTION 115. Trust Indenture Act Controls. Upon qualification of this Indenture under the TIA, if any provision of this Indenture limits,
qualifies or conflicts with another provision which is required to be included in this Indenture by the TIA, the provision required by the TIA shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the TIA that may
be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or excluded, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 116. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be original; but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. One signed copy is enough to
prove this Indenture.

 ARTICLE TWO 
 NOTE FORMS 
 SECTION 201. Form and Dating. Provisions relating to the Initial Notes, the
Private Exchange Notes and the Exchange Notes are set forth in the Rule 144A / Regulation S Appendix attached hereto (the “Appendix”), which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made part of, this Indenture. The
Initial Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 to the Appendix, which is hereby incorporated in, and expressly made a part of, this Indenture. The Exchange Notes, the Private
Exchange Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements
required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Company and the Co-Issuer are subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the
Co-Issuer). Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the Note set forth in the Appendix and Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 202. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Company and the Co-Issuer by an Officer
of each of the Company and the Co-Issuer, respectively. The signatures of such Officers on the Notes may be manual or facsimile signature of the present or any future such authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Notes.

 Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time a proper officer of the Company or the Co-Issuer, as
the case may be, shall bind the Company or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, notwithstanding that such individual ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such office at the date of such
Notes. 
 At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company and the Co-Issuer may deliver
Notes executed by the Company and the Co-Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver
such Notes. 
 On the Issue Date, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall deliver the Initial Notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$250,000,000 executed by the Company and the Co-Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order directing the Trustee to authenticate the Notes and certifying that all conditions precedent to the issuance of Notes contained
herein have been fully complied with, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Initial Notes. At any time and from time to time after the Issue Date, the Company and the Co-Issuer may deliver
Additional Notes executed by the Company and the Co-Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Additional Notes, directing the Trustee to authenticate the Additional Notes and

  

 48 

 
certifying that the issuance of such Additional Notes is in compliance with Article Ten hereof and that all other conditions precedent to the issuance of
Notes contained herein have been fully complied with, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Additional Notes. 
 Upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate for original issue Exchange Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250,000,000; provided that such Exchange Notes shall be issuable
only upon the valid surrender for cancellation of Initial Notes and any Additional Notes of a like aggregate principal amount in accordance with an Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Exchange Notes and certifying that all conditions precedent to the issuance of such Exchange Notes are complied with. In each case, the Trustee shall receive a Company Order and an Opinion of Counsel of the
Company and the Co-Issuer that it may reasonably require in connection with such authentication of Notes. Such Company Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be
authenticated. 
 Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate
of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Exhibit 1 to the Appendix, duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized officer, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence,
that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 In case the Company,
the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, pursuant to Article Eight of this Indenture, shall be consolidated or merged with or into any other Person or shall convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of its properties and assets substantially as
an entirety to any Person, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Company, the Co-Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have been merged, or the Person which shall have received a
conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed a supplemental indenture hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article Eight of this Indenture, any of the Notes authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation,
merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Notes executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be
appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Notes surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Request of the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver Notes as specified in such
request for the purpose of such exchange. If Notes shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Notes, such
successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Notes at the time outstanding for Notes authenticated and delivered in such new name. 
  

 49 

 ARTICLE THREE 
 THE NOTES 
 SECTION 301. Title and Terms. The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be
authenticated and issued under this Indenture is not limited; provided, however, that any Additional Notes issued under this Indenture rank pari passu with the Initial Notes, are issued in accordance with Sections 202 and 1011
hereof, form a single class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Initial Notes. Any Additional Notes shall be issued pursuant to a supplemental indenture to this Indenture. 
 The Notes shall be known and designated as the “8 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2013” of the Company and the Co-Issuer. The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be
November 1, 2013, and the Notes shall bear interest at the rate set forth below from October 31, 2005, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, payable on May 1, 2006 and
semi-annually thereafter on May 1 and November 1 in each year and at said Stated Maturity, until the principal thereof is paid or duly provided for and to the Person in whose name the Note (or any predecessor Note) is registered at the
close of business on the April 15 and October 15 immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”). 
 The principal of (and premium, if any), interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company and the Co-Issuer maintained for such purpose in the City of
Houston, State of Texas or, at the option of the Company and the Co-Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register; provided that all payments
of principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, with respect to Notes represented by one or more permanent global Notes registered in the name of or held by the Depository or its nominee shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holder or Holders thereof. 
 Holders shall have the right to require the
Company or the Co-Issuer to purchase their Notes, in whole or in part, in the event of a Change of Control pursuant to Section 1017. The Notes shall be subject to repurchase pursuant to an offer to purchase as provided in Section 1018 and
Section 1019. 
 The Notes shall be redeemable as provided in Article Eleven of this Indenture and Paragraph 5 of the Notes.

 The due and punctual payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes payable by the Company and the Co-Issuer is
irrevocably unconditionally guaranteed, to the extent set forth herein, by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
  

 50 

 SECTION 302. Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons
and only in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 SECTION 303. Temporary Notes. Pending
the preparation of definitive Notes, the Company and the Co-Issuer may execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise
produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Notes
may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Notes. 
 If temporary Notes are issued, the Company and the Co-Issuer
shall cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. Subject to the provisions set forth in the Rule 144A/Regulation S Appendix, after the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for
definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company and the Co-Issuer designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or
more temporary Notes, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes
shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes. 
 SECTION 304. Note Registrar; Paying
Agent; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The Company and the Co-Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated
pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers
of Notes. The Note Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times, the Note Register shall be open to inspection by the Trustee. The Trustee is
hereby initially appointed as note registrar (the “Note Registrar”) for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed to act as the Paying Agent and to act as
Custodian with respect to the Global Notes. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company
designated pursuant to Section 1002, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denomination or
denominations of a like aggregate principal amount. 
 At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized
denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so 

  

 51 

 
surrendered for exchange, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the
exchange is entitled to receive; provided that no exchange of Notes for Exchange Notes shall occur until an Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC, the Trustee shall have received an Officers’
Certificate confirming that the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC and the Initial Notes to be exchanged for the Exchange Notes shall be cancelled by the Trustee. 
 All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer, evidencing the
same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by written instruments of transfer, in form
satisfactory to the Company, the Co-Issuer and the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange or redemption of Notes, but the Company and the Co-Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any taxes, fees or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 202, 303, 906, 1017, 1018, 1019 or 1108 not involving any transfer. 
 SECTION 305. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If (1) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, or (2) the Company,
the Co-Issuer and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and there is delivered to the Company, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required to protect the
Company, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, any agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired
by a Protected Purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code) (a “Protected Purchaser”), the Company and the Co-Issuer shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange for any such mutilated Note or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company and the Co-Issuer in their
discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section, the Company and the
Co-Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in replacing a Note. 
  

 52 

 Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, the Co-Issuer and each Subsidiary Guarantor, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions
of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 
 SECTION 306. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. (a) Interest on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the
Company and the Co-Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002; provided that, subject to Section 301 hereof, each installment of interest may at the Company’s or the Co-Issuer’s option be paid by
(1) mailing a check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person entitled thereto pursuant to Section 307, to the address of such Person as it appears in the Note Register or (2) transfer to an account located
in the United States maintained by the payee. 
 (b) Any interest on any Note which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such defaulted interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such defaulted interest at the
rate borne by the Notes (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) may be paid by the Company or the Co-Issuer at its election, in each case as provided in clause (1) or
(2) below: 
 (1) The Company or the Co-Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in
whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company and the Co-Issuer
shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company or the Co-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 in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment 

  

 53 

 
of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days
after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Co-Issuer of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Company and the Co-Issuer, shall cause
notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 107, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of
such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such
Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2). 
 (2) The Company or the
Co-Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after
notice given by the Company and the Co-Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 (c) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, 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 307. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to the due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Co-Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee may
treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 304 and 306) interest on such Note and for all other purposes
whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Company, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 SECTION 308. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person
other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company and the Co-Issuer may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the
Company or the Co-Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Company and the
Co-Issuer have not issued and sold, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. If the Company or the Co-Issuer shall so acquire any of the Notes, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction
of the indebtedness represented by such Notes 

  

 54 

 
unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled
as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirements of
the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Company and the Co-Issuer by the Trustee. 
 SECTION 309. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 SECTION 310. Transfer and Exchange. The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer. When a Note is presented to the Note
Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Note Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture and Section 8-401(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When Notes are
presented to the Note Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Note Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. 
 SECTION 311. CUSIP Numbers. The Company and the Co-Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common
Code” numbers (in each case, if then generally in use) in addition to serial numbers, and, if so, the Trustee shall use such “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in addition to serial numbers in notices of
redemption, repurchase or other notices to Holders as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code”
numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the serial or other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or repurchase shall
not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company and the Co-Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers applicable to the
Notes. 
 SECTION 312. Issuance of Additional Notes. The Company and the Co-Issuer may, subject to Section 1011 of this
Indenture, issue additional Notes having identical terms and conditions to the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price (the “Additional Notes”); provided,
however, that no Additional Notes may be issued at a price that would cause such Additional Notes to have “original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code. The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date and any
Additional Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture. Exchange Notes issued in exchange for Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date and Exchange Notes issued for any Additional Notes
subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture. 
  

 55 

 ARTICLE FOUR 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
 SECTION 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This
Indenture shall upon Company Request and at the Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s expense cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder (except as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section and as to surviving rights of
registration of transfer or exchange of Notes expressly provided for herein or pursuant hereto) and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company and the Co-Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture when: 
 (1) either, 
 (A) all such Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 305 and (ii) Notes
for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or segregated and held in trust by the Company and the Co-Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Company and the Co-Issuer or discharged from such
trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (B) all such Notes not
theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, 
 (i) have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice
of redemption pursuant to Section 1105 or otherwise, or 
 (ii) shall become due and payable at their Stated Maturity
within one year, or 
 (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company and the Co-Issuer, 
 and the Company,
the Co-Issuer, or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) of this clause (B), has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in
U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be; 
  

 56 

 (2) no Default (other than that resulting from borrowing funds to be applied to make such
deposit and the granting of Liens in connection therewith) with respect to this Indenture or the Notes issued hereunder 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 Senior Credit Facilities or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor is a
party or by which the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor is bound; 
 (3) the Company and the Co-Issuer have
paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; 
 (4) the Company and the Co-Issuer have delivered
irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of such Notes at Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be; and 
 (5) the Company and the Co-Issuer have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that
all conditions precedent herein to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture, if money or Government Securities shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last
paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. In addition, nothing in this Section 401 shall be deemed to discharge the obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer to the Trustee under Section 607 and the
obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer to any Authenticating Agent under Section 612 that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 402. Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money or Government Securities
deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company
or the Co-Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium and Additional Interest, if any) and interest for whose payment such money or Government Securities has
been deposited with the Trustee, but such money or Government Securities 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 401 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or
governmental authority enjoining, 

  

 57 

 
restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s, the Co-Issuer’s and any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 401 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 401; provided that if the Company or the Co-Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be,
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.

rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): 
 (1) default in payment when due and payable, upon
redemption, acceleration or otherwise, of principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes issued under this Indenture; 
 (2)
default for 30 days or more in the payment when due of interest on or with respect to the Notes issued under this Indenture;

Indenture to comply with any of its other agreements contained in this Indenture or 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 the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or the payment of which is guaranteed by the

 (A) such default either 
 (i) 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 
 (ii) 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 $50.0 million or more at any one time outstanding; 
  

 59 

 (5) failure by the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary (or any group of
Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $50.0 million, which final judgments remain unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a period of more than 60 days after
such 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;

 (iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company, the Co-Issuer or any
Significant Subsidiary; 
 and, solely with respect to clause (B), the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days;

 provided, that for the purposes of this clause (6), a Significant Subsidiary shall include any group of Subsidiaries that
together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or 
 (7) the Subsidiary Guarantee of any Significant Subsidiary (or any
group of Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) 

  

 60 

 
shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a
Significant Subsidiary (or the responsible officers of any group of Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary), as the case may be, denies that it has any further liability under its Subsidiary Guarantee or gives notice to
such effect, other than by reason of the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture. 
 SECTION 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6)) occurs and is continuing under this Indenture,
the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes issued under this Indenture may declare the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary Obligations on all the Outstanding Notes issued under
this Indenture to be due and payable immediately by a notice in writing to the Company and the Co-Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders). 
 (b) Upon the effectiveness of such declaration, such principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be due and payable immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in
Section 501(6) occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of all Outstanding Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any notice, declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

 (c) At any time after a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been
obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Company, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such
declaration and its consequences if: 
 (1) the Company or the Co-Issuer has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay: 
 (A) all overdue interest on all Outstanding Notes, 
 (B) all unpaid principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Outstanding Notes which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of
acceleration, and interest on such unpaid principal at the rate borne by the Notes, 
 (C) to the extent that payment of such
interest is lawful, interest on overdue interest at the rate borne by the Notes, and 
 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the
Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and 
  

 61 

 (2) Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of (or premium,
if any, on) or interest on Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the preceding
paragraph, in the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 501(4) above, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default) 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) if the default
that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured. 
 SECTION 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums due hereunder
pursuant to this Article 5 and unpaid, and, in addition thereto, 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. The Trustee may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company, the Co-Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged
or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, the Co-Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated. 
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Holders under this Indenture and the Subsidiary Guarantees by the judicial proceedings discussed above as the Trustee shall deem necessary to protect and enforce any such rights, including seeking recourse against any Subsidiary Guarantor.

 SECTION 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company, the Co-Issuer or any other obligor including any Subsidiary Guarantor, upon the Notes or the property of the Company, the Co-Issuer or of such
other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due 

  

 62 

 
and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company and the
Co-Issuer for the payment of overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Notes and to file such 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 of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 
 (2) to collect, receive and distribute any moneys or
other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or similar official 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
the Trustee any amount due 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 607. 
 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 thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 SECTION 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be
prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name and as trustee of an
express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered. 
 SECTION 506. Application of Money Collected. Any money or property collected by the Trustee
pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes and
the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the
payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; 
  

 63 

 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal (and
premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and 
 THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company and the Co-Issuer or as
a court of competent jurisdiction may direct in writing; provided that all sums due and owing to the Holders and the Trustee have been paid in full as required by this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 506. 
 SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 508, no Holder of any Notes shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given the
Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 
 (2) Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holders have offered the Trustee reasonable 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) Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period, 
 it being
understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other
Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the
Holders (it being further understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders). 
 SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the
Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein (including, if applicable, Article Eleven) and in such Note of the 

  

 64 

 
principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 306) interest on such Note on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in
the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 
 SECTION 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under
this Indenture or the Subsidiary Guarantees 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
proceeding, the Company, the Co-Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any other obligor of the Notes, 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 had been instituted. 
 SECTION 510. Rights and Remedies
Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in the last paragraph of Section 305, 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 511. 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 512.
Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, provided that: 
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict
with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 
 (2) subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee may
take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
  

 65 

 (3) the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in personal liability or
be unduly prejudicial to the Holders not consenting. 
 SECTION 513. Waiver of Default. Subject to Sections 508 and 902, the Holders
of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may on behalf of the Holders of all such Notes waive any Default hereunder and its consequences, except a continuing Default or Event of Default (1) in respect of the
payment of interest on, premium, if any, or the principal of any such Note held by a non-consenting Holder, or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the
Holder of each Outstanding Note affected. 
 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 514. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. Each of the Company, the Co-Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and any other obligor on the Notes
covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter
in force that would prohibit or forgive the Company, the Co-Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor from paying any portion of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes.

 ARTICLE SIX 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 SECTION 601. Duties of the Trustee. (a) Except during the continuance of an
Event of Default, 
 (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in
this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (2) in
the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct 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; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions specifically required by any provision hereof to be provided to it, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or
not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, but not to verify the contents thereof. 
 (b) If an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge or of which written notice of such Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Company, the Co-Issuer, any other obligor of the Notes or by any
Holder, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
Person’s own affairs. 
 (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that 
 (1) this paragraph
(c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section; 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be
liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
 (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee, under this Indenture; and 
 (4) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance 

  

 67 

 
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 adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
 (d) Whether or not therein expressly so
provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. 
 SECTION 602. Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall
transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), notice of such Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs unless such Default or Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. Except in the case of a
Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on any Note, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if it determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the
Holders. In addition, the Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if in the best judgment of the Trustee acceleration is not in the best interest of the Holders of such Notes. 
 SECTION 603. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d): 
 (1) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,

been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors of either the Company or the Co-Issuer may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution of the applicable Board of
Directors; 
 (3) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved
or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel; 
 (4) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its own selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel; 
  

 68 

 (5) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers
vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses,
losses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (6) the Trustee shall
not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or
other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be
entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company and the Co-Issuer, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; 
 (8) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or
within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; provided, however, that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence; 
 (9) the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including its right to be indemnified, are extended
to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder; and 
 (10) 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. 
 SECTION 604. Trustee Not
Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company and the Co-Issuer, and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this
Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 supplied to the Company 

  

 69 

 
and the Co-Issuer are true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by
the Company and the Co-Issuer of Notes or the proceeds thereof. 
 SECTION 605. May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any
Note Registrar or any other agent of the Company, of the Co-Issuer or of the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the
Company and the Co-Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Note Registrar or such other agent; provided, however, that, if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such
conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue or resign. 
 SECTION 606. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the
Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the
Company and the Co-Issuer. 
 SECTION 607. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company, the Co-Issuer and the Subsidiary
Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree: 
 (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed
in writing between the Company and the Co-Issuer and the Trustee for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements
and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as
shall be determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct; and 
 (3) to indemnify the Trustee and
any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, including taxes (other than the taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its
part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim regardless of whether the claim is asserted by the Company, the Co-Issuer, a Subsidiary
Guarantor, a Holder or any other Person or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. 
 The obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer under this Section to compensate the Trustee, to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and 

  

 70 

 
advances and to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture and resignation or removal of the Trustee. As security for the performance of such obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer, the Trustee shall have a claim prior to the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the
Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on particular Notes. 
 When
the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) of and the compensation for such services are
intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Bankruptcy Law. 
 The provisions of this Section shall survive the
termination of this Indenture and resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 SECTION 608. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility.
There shall be at all times a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of Federal, State, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be
deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 
 SECTION 609. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of
Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable
requirements of Section 610. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company and the
Co-Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of the Board of Directors of each of the Company and the Co-Issuer, copies of
which shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and a copy to the successor Trustee. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 610 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving
of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company and the Co-Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, delivered to
the Trustee and to the Company and the Co-Issuer. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 610 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee 

  

 71 

 
within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Company and the Co-Issuer, any court
of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (d) The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b);
provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company
or the Co-Issuer are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met. 
 (e) If the
Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company and the Co-Issuer, by a Board Resolution of the Board of Directors of each of the Company and the
Co-Issuer, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the Co-Issuer and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede the
successor Trustee appointed by the Company and the Co-Issuer. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Company and the Co-Issuer or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a
bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (f) The Company and the Co-Issuer shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to
the Holders in the manner provided for in Section 107. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 SECTION 610. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company, the Co-Issuer and to the retiring Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company, the Co-Issuer or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all
the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company and
the Co-Issuer shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts. 
  

 72 

 (b) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 SECTION 611. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to
Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to
such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes. In case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been
authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and effect which this Indenture
provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor
Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 SECTION 612. Appointment of
Authenticating Agent. At any time when any of the Notes remain Outstanding, the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to the Notes which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Notes and
the Trustee shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Notes with respect to which such Authenticating Agent shall serve, in the manner provided for in Section 107. Notes so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, and a copy of such
instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company and the Co-Issuer. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference
shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be
acceptable to the Company and the Co-Issuer and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as
Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law
or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set 

  

 73 

 
forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. 
 Any corporation into
which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating
Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company and the Co-Issuer. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating
Agent and to the Company and the Co-Issuer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the
Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and the Co-Issuer and shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Notes, in the manner provided for in Section 107. Any successor
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor
Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer each agrees to
pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time such compensation for its services under this Section as shall be agreed in writing between the Company, the Co-Issuer and such Authenticating Agent. 
 If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section, the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication,
an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form: 
 This is one of the Notes designated therein referred to in the
within-mentioned Indenture.

payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 
 Subject to applicable laws relating to abandoned property, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company or the Co-Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company or the Co-Issuer on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company or the Co-Issuer) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company or the Co-Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such

 (a) within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations (as in effect on the Issue Date) for
non-accelerated filers with respect to Form 10-K and within 60 days from the end of the applicable fiscal quarter with respect to Form 10-Q, all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a
filing by a non-accelerated filer with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K (or any successor or comparable forms) if the Company were required to file such forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Company’s certified independent accountants; and 
 (b) within 10 calendar days from any event after the Issue Date that triggers the requirement for such filing under the SEC’s rules and regulations,

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein (i) the obligations of the Company with respect to clauses (a) and (b) of the previous paragraph shall not extend to (x) any information the provision of which
is, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, unduly burdensome to the Company and, in lieu of such information, the Company shall furnish information comparable to that included in the Offering Circular or (y) any information for historical
periods covered by the financial information in the Offering Circular to the extent such information is not included in the Offering Circular, (ii) with respect to any quarterly or annual financial information that would be required to be
contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q, 10-K or on Form 8-K with respect to any period, or event occurring, prior to the Company’s second quarter in fiscal year 2006, such information shall be comparable to the corresponding
information included in the Offering Circular and (iii) with respect to the furnishing of reports pursuant to clause (b) of the preceding paragraph prior to the beginning of the Company’s second quarter in fiscal year 2006, such
information shall be filed within 15 calendar days from the event that triggers the requirement for such filing under the SEC’s rules and regulations. 
  

 87 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to include in any information furnished
hereunder a management’s report on internal controls over financial reporting or an auditor’s attestation thereon unless the Company is required under the SEC’s rules and regulations to include such report and attestation in its
filings with the SEC. 
 In addition, whether or not required by the SEC, the Company shall (subject to the immediately preceding paragraph)
make the information and reports referred to in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 1009 available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request. For purposes of this Section 1009, the term “Company
Website” means the collection of web pages that may be accessed on the World Wide Web using the URL address http://www.targaresources.com or such other address as the Company may from time to time designate in writing to the Trustee.

 The Company has also agreed that, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, it shall furnish to Holders and to securities analysts and
prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
 (c) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable
from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 (d) In addition, if at any time any direct or indirect parent company of the Company becomes a guarantor of the Notes (there being no obligation of such
parent to do so), the reports, information and other documents required to be filed and furnished to the Holders pursuant to this Section 1009 may, at the option of the Company, be filed by and be those of such parent rather than the Company;
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 the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirements of this
Section 1019 shall be deemed satisfied prior to the commencement of the Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement by the filing with the SEC of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and/or Shelf
Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto within the time periods specified in the Registration Rights Agreement, with such financial information that satisfies Regulation S-X of the Securities Act.

 (d) The 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

debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to extend, replace, refund, refinance, renew or defease other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such extension,
replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance 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 extension, replacement,
refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance, 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 extended, replaced, refunded, refinanced, renewed or defeased. 
 (f) The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to
extend, replace, refund, refinance, renew or defease other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being extended, replaced, refunded, refinanced, renewed or defeased, 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 extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance.

owned or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, unless: 
 (1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, are secured by a Lien on such property or assets that is senior in priority to such
Liens; and 
 (2) in all other cases, the Notes or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case
may be, are equally and ratably secured; 
 provided that any Lien that is granted to secure the Notes under this Section 1012 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.

 (3) any Note not properly tendered shall remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest; 
 (4) unless the Company or the Co-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) Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the

Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (6) Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes
and their election to require the Company or the Co-Issuer to purchase such Notes; provided that the paying agent receives, not later than the close of business on the last day of the offer period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or
letter setting forth the name of the Holder, 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; and 
 (7) Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of
the Notes surrendered (which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000); provided that no Notes of less than $2,000 shall be redeemed in part. 
 (b) While the Notes are in global form and the Company or the Co-Issuer makes an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the Change of Control
Offer, a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the purchase of the Notes through the facilities of DTC, subject to its rules and regulations. 
  

 111 

 (c) The Company and the Co-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 a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities
laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company and the Co-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. 
 (d) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by law,

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

(2) 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 
 (3) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted
together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Company and the Co-Issuer. 
 (e) 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 to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the
unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part and each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000.
The Company and the Co-Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
 (f) The Company and the Co-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 time and otherwise in
compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and the Co-Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 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. 
 SECTION 1018. Asset Sales. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, cause, make or suffer to exist an
Asset Sale, unless: 
 (1) the Company 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 the Company) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; and 
  

 112 

 (2) except in the case of a Permitted Asset Swap, at least 75% of the consideration
therefor received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of 
 (A) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes
thereto) of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets (or a third party on behalf of the transferee) and for which the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary has been validly released by all creditors in writing, 
 (B) any securities, notes or
other obligations or assets received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within 180 days following the
closing of such Asset Sale and 
 (C) any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of
(x) $100.0 million and (y) 4.0% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Noncash 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 provision and for no other purpose.

 (b) Within 365 days after any of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset
Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may, at its option, apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale: 
 (1) to
permanently reduce 
 (x) Obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities or any other Senior Indebtedness, in each case, of
the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, and, in the case of Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Funded Synthetic Letter of Credit Facility or other similar Indebtedness, to correspondingly 

  

 113 

 
permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto (other than Obligations owed to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary); provided that if the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so reduce Obligations under any Senior Indebtedness that is not Secured Indebtedness, the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall, equally and ratably, reduce Obligations under the Notes by, at its
option, (A) redeeming Notes to the extent the Notes are then redeemable as provided by the terms of the Notes, (B) making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1018) to all Holders to purchase their
Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased or (C) purchasing Notes through open market purchases (to
the extent such purchases are at a price equal to or higher than 100% of the principal amount thereof) in a manner that complies with this Indenture and applicable securities law; or 
 (y) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or another
Restricted Subsidiary; or 
 (2) to 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 the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary owning an amount of the Capital Stock of such business such that it constitutes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) properties,
(C) capital expenditures and (D) acquisitions of other assets, that in each of (A), (B), (C) and (D), are used or useful in a Similar Business or replace the businesses, properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale;

 provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the North Texas Asset Sale is consummated, then within 30 days of the receipt of
the Net Proceeds from the North Texas Asset Sale, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall apply the Net Proceeds therefrom as follows: 
 (A) the first $700.0 million of the Net Proceeds from the North Texas Asset Sale shall be applied to repay Indebtedness outstanding under
the Asset Sale Bridge Loan Facility and/or the Term Loan Facility; 
 (B) 50% of the amount by which the Net Proceeds from the
North Texas Asset Sale exceed $700.0 million but are less than or equal to $850.0 million shall be applied to repay Indebtedness outstanding under the Asset Sale Bridge Loan Facility and/or the Term Loan Facility; 
 (C) 25% of the amount by which the Net Proceeds from the North Texas Asset Sale exceed $850.0 million shall be applied to repay
Indebtedness outstanding under the Asset Sale Bridge Loan Facility and/or the Term Loan Facility; and 
  

 114 

 (D) any remaining net proceeds may be used by the Company for general corporate purposes,
subject to the other covenants in this Indenture. 
 (c) Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale (other than the North Texas Asset Sale) that
are not invested or applied in accordance with the preceding paragraph within 365 days from the date of the receipt of such Net Proceeds shall be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”; provided that if during such
365-day period the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary enters into a definitive binding agreement committing it to apply such Net Proceeds in accordance with the requirements of clause (2) of Section 1018(b) after such 365th day, such
365-day period shall be extended with respect to the amount of Net Proceeds so committed, but such extension shall in no event be for a period longer than 180 days, until such Net Proceeds are required to be applied in accordance with such agreement
(or, if earlier, the date of termination of such agreement). When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $35.0 million, the Company shall make an offer to all Holders and, if required by the terms of any Senior Indebtedness, to the holders
of such Senior Indebtedness (other than with respect to Hedging Obligations) (an “Asset Sale Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes and such Senior Indebtedness that is an integral multiple of $1,000
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 and Additional Interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such
offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $35.0 million by mailing the
notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (other than a North Texas Asset Sale) by making an Asset Sale
Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds prior to the expiration of the relevant 365 days (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to Excess Proceeds of $35.0 million or less. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and
such Senior Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to the other covenants contained in this Indenture. Subject
to Section 1018(f), if the aggregate principal amount of Notes or the Senior Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select or cause to be selected the Notes and such Senior
Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the accreted value or principal amount of the Notes or such Senior Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds related to such
Asset Sale Offer shall be reset at zero. 
 (d) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this Section 1018, the
Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may apply such Net 

  

 115 

 
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. 
 (e) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws
and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the
provisions of this Indenture, the Company 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. 
 (f) If the Company is repurchasing less than all of the Notes at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be repurchased (a) if the Notes are
listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which such Notes are listed or (b) if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis to the extent
practicable; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be repurchased in part. 
 (g) Notices of repurchase shall be mailed by
first class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the date of repurchase to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address, except that notices of repurchase may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a date of
repurchase if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. If any Note is to be repurchased in part only, any notice of repurchase that relates to such Note shall state the
portion of the principal amount thereof to be repurchased. 
 (h) A new Note in principal amount equal to the unrepurchased portion of any
Note repurchased in part shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for repurchase become due and payable on the date fixed for repurchase. On and after the date of repurchase, unless the
Company defaults in the repurchase payment, interest shall cease to accrue on the Note or portions thereof called for repurchase. 
 SECTION
1019. Transactions Involving MLPs and GPs. (a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, cause or make a MLP Asset Transfer or a MLP Equity Transfer, unless: 
 (1) in the case of the Initial MLP Asset Transfer, after such MLP Asset Transfer and as a result thereof, the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries shall have received an amount of cash attributable to such Initial MLP Asset Transfer (as a result of (i) the receipt of cash proceeds as all or a portion of the consideration for such Initial MLP Asset Transfer or (ii) the
repayment of intercompany indebtedness, owed by a Subsidiary of the Company, transferred or assumed as part of such Initial MLP Asset Transfer) at least equal to the Minimum Cash Consideration, with the balance of the consideration received by the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries for such Initial MLP Asset Transfer consisting solely of Equity Interests in the applicable MLP; 
  

 116 

 (2) in the case of a MLP Asset Transfer (other than the Initial MLP Asset Transfer),
after such MLP Asset Transfer and as a result thereof, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall have received an amount of cash attributable to such MLP Asset Transfer (as a result of (i) the receipt of cash proceeds as all or a
portion of the consideration for such MLP Asset Transfer or (ii) the repayment of intercompany indebtedness, owed by a Subsidiary of the Company, transferred or assumed as part of such MLP Asset Transfer) at least equal to 75% of the fair
market value (as determined in good faith by the Company based on values that could be obtained in an arms’ length transaction) of (a) the assets and property transferred or (b) in the case of a transfer of any Equity Interests of a
Person, such Person at the time of such MLP Asset Transfer (it being understood that, in the case of a transfer of less than all of the Equity Interests of a Person, the value of such Person shall be determined at the time of the first MLP Asset
Transfer constituting part of such MLP Asset Transfer (as if all the Equity Interests in such Person had been transferred at the time of such first MLP Asset Transfer and the cash requirement set forth in this clause shall need to be satisfied on
that basis in connection with such first MLP Asset Transfer) and there shall be no such additional cash attributable to such MLP Asset Transfer required for any subsequent transfer of Equity Interests of such Person constituting part of the MLP
Asset Transfer) (in each case of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), assuming such assets or Person, as applicable, operate as a going concern), with the balance of the consideration received by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries for
such MLP Asset Transfer consisting solely of Equity Interests in the applicable MLP; provided, however, that in the event that the fair market value of the assets, property and Person transferred in connection with a MLP Asset Transfer
exceed $100.0 million in the aggregate, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall have received a written opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor to the effect that such MLP Asset Transfer is fair, from a financial
standpoint, to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (3) in the case of a MLP Equity Transfer (other than a MLP
Equity Transfer to the extent it is made to satisfy the proviso to the definition of “Minimum Cash Consideration,” in which case only the requirements of such proviso need be satisfied), the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary
receives net proceeds in connection therewith in an amount at least equal to the fair market value of the Equity Interests that are transferred in such MLP Equity Transfer and at least 75% of the consideration for such MLP Equity Transfer received
by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries is in the form of cash. 
 (4) the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries are
in compliance with the terms of this Indenture and the documentation governing the Senior Credit Facilities, and such MLP Asset Transfer or MLP Equity Transfer, as the case may be, would not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under this Indenture or any of the documentation governing the Senior Credit Facilities; and 
  

 117 

 (5) such MLP Asset Transfer would not result in the related MLP or any MLP Subsidiary
being required to assume the obligations of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary under the terms of any of the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Indebtedness 
 (any such MLP Asset Transfer or MLP Equity Transfer that complies with clauses (1) through (5) above being referred to as a “Permitted MLP Transfer”). All Equity Interests received by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any Permitted MLP Transfer that is a MLP Asset Transfer shall be held by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, until such time as any such Equity Interest is sold,
conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of pursuant to this covenant. 
 (b) In addition, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any
Restricted Subsidiary or MLP GP to, cause or make a GP Equity Transfer unless: 
 (1) (x) in the case of a GP Equity Transfer
by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary receives in connection therewith cash (which may include the repayment in cash of Indebtedness owing to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary) at substantially the
same time of such GP Equity Transfer in an amount at least equal to the greater of (i) $50.0 million (with this clause (i) applicable only in the case of a GP Equity Transfer undertaken in connection with the initial public offering of a
MLP GP) and (ii) the fair market value of the Equity Interests subject to such GP Equity Transfer or (y) in the case of a GP Equity Transfer by a MLP GP, the net proceeds received by such MLP GP in such GP Equity Transfer, which shall be
at least equal to the fair market value of the Equity Interests subject to such GP Equity Transfer, are used to pay a dividend to the holders of Equity Interests of such MLP GP or to purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value
any Equity Interests in such MLP GP; provided, however, that the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary shall receive at least a pro rata portion of such dividend or at least a pro rata portion of the payment for such
purchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement, except that such requirement shall not apply with respect to payments for the purchase, redemption, defeasance or retirement for value of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock)
of any MLP GP held by any future, present or former employee, director, manager or consultant of such MLP GP, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies pursuant to any management equity plan or stock option plan or
any other management or employee benefit plan or agreement; 
 (2) the Company is in compliance with the terms of this
Indenture and the documentation governing the Senior Credit Facilities, and such GP Equity Transfer would not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under this Indenture or any of the documentation governing the Senior Credit
Facilities; 
  

 118 

 (3) the related MLP GP’s sole business is to act as the general partner of the
applicable Permitted MLP and engage in activities ancillary thereto and such MLP GP owns no assets (other than (i) ownership interests in such Permitted MLP and Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company, (ii) temporarily
holding assets to be transferred or distributed in connection with a Permitted MLP Transfer or Permitted GP Transfer or distributions from a Permitted MLP, (iii) current assets sufficient to satisfy its ordinary course operating expenses,
including such expenses after it has become a publicly traded company, and other assets necessary for its existence and operation as a public company and (iv) the reserves referred to in clause (4) below); and 
 (4) the related GP is required by its partnership agreement to distribute all cash and Cash Equivalents that it receives from time to time
to its partners on a pro rata basis, subject to the establishment of such reserves as management of such related GP determines are appropriate for general, administrative and operating expenses in the ordinary course of its business and as
are prudent to maintain for the proper conduct of its business or to provide for future distributions, in each case in accordance with the terms of the organizational documents of the related GP; provided that such organizational documents
are, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, in a form that is customary for similar entities whose primary function is to serve as general partners of entities operating as master limited partnerships; 
 (any such GP Equity Transfer that complies with clauses (1) through (4) above being referred to as a “Permitted GP Transfer”). All Equity
Interests in the related GP from time to time owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company shall be held by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary until such time as any such Equity Interest is sold, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of
pursuant to this Section 1019(b). 
 (c) For purposes of calculating the fair market value of any assets or property transferred to any
Person, any Person and any Equity Interests in a Person with respect to any MLP Asset Transfer, MLP Equity Transfer or Permitted GP Transfer, any Indebtedness that is owed by such Person to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be
disregarded and shall not be reflected in such calculation to reduce the fair market value of such assets or property, Person or Equity Interests in such Person, as the case may be. 
 (d) Within 365 days after any Permitted MLP Transfer, Permitted GP Transfer or Extraordinary Distribution has occurred, the Company or the
applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case shall be, may, at its option, apply the Net Proceeds from such Permitted MLP Transfer, Permitted GP Transfer or Extraordinary Distribution to permanently reduce: 
 (1) Indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility and Asset Sale Bridge Facility; 
  

 119 

 (2) Obligations under other Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary
Guarantor and, in the case of Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Funded Synthetic Letter of Credit Facility, to correspondingly permanently reduce commitments with respect thereto (other than Obligations owed to the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary); provided that if the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so reduce Obligations under any Senior Indebtedness that is not Secured Indebtedness, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall, equally and
ratably, reduce Obligations under the Notes by, at its option, (A) redeeming the Notes to the extent they are redeemable as provided by the terms of the Notes, (B) making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for a
MLP Offer) to all Holders to purchase their Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, or (C) purchasing
Notes through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at a price equal to or higher than 100% of the principal amount thereof) in a manner that complies with this Indenture and applicable securities law; or 
 (3) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or another
Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (e) Notwithstanding clause (d) above, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply up to 50% of the Net
Proceeds from any Permitted MLP Transfer (other than the Initial MLP Transfer), any Permitted GP Transfer or any Extraordinary Distribution to make a Permitted MLP Investment; provided that if during such 365-day period, the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary enters into a definitive binding agreement committing it to apply such Net Proceeds to make a Permitted MLP Investment after such 365th day, such 365-day period shall be extended with respect to the amount of Net Proceeds so
committed (but such extension shall in no event be for a period longer than 180 days) until such Net Proceeds are required to be applied in accordance with such agreement (or, if earlier, the date of termination of such agreement). 
 (f) If any Net Proceeds received are not invested or applied in accordance with the preceding paragraph within 365 days from the date of the receipt
of such Net Proceeds (or such longer period provided for in such paragraph), then the Company shall make an offer to all Holders and, if required by the terms of any other Senior Indebtedness, to the holders of such other Senior Indebtedness (other
than with respect to Hedging Obligations) (an “MLP Offer”), to purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes and such other Senior Indebtedness that is an integral multiple of $1,000 that may be purchased out of the
excess Net Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and Additional Interest, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall commence a MLP Offer with respect to such Net Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that excess Net Proceeds exceed $10.0 million by mailing the notice required pursuant to the
terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee. To the extent that the 

  

 120 

 
aggregate amount of Notes and such other Senior Indebtedness tendered pursuant to a MLP Offer is less than the excess Net Proceeds from the Permitted MLP
Transfer, Permitted GP Transfer or Extraordinary Distribution, the Company may use any remaining excess Net Proceeds for general corporate purposes, subject to other covenants contained in this Indenture. Subject to Section 1019(f), if the
aggregate principal amount of Notes and the other Senior Indebtedness surrendered by such holders thereof exceeds the amount of such excess Net Proceeds, the Trustee shall select or cause to be selected the Notes and such other Senior Indebtedness
to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of the Notes or such other Senior Indebtedness tendered. Upon completion of any such MLP Offer, the amount of such excess Net Proceeds
related to such MLP Offer shall be reset at zero. 
 (g) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds pursuant to this
Section 1019, the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary 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. 
 (h) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and
regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a MLP Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of
this Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof. 
 (i) If the Company is repurchasing less than all of the Notes at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be repurchased (a) if the Notes are
listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which such Notes are listed, or (b) if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis to the extent
practicable; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be repurchased in part. 
 (j) Notices of repurchase shall be mailed by
first class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the date of repurchase to each Holder at such Holder’s registered address, except that notices of repurchase may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a date of
repurchase if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. If any Note is to be repurchased in part only, any notice of repurchase that relates to such Note shall state the
portion of the principal amount thereof to be repurchased. 
 (k) A new Note in principal amount equal to the unrepurchased portion of any
Note repurchased in part shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for repurchase become due and payable on the date fixed for repurchase. On and after the date of repurchase, unless the
Company defaults in the payment of the repurchase price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Note or portions thereof called for repurchase. 
  

 121 

 SECTION 1020. Additional Interest Notice. In the event that the Company and the Co-Issuer are
required to pay Additional Interest to Holders pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall provide written notice (an “Additional Interest Notice”) to the Trustee of their obligation to pay
Additional Interest no later than fifteen days prior to the proposed payment date for the Additional Interest, and the Additional Interest Notice shall set forth the amount of Additional Interest to be paid by the Company or the Co-Issuer on such
payment date. The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Additional Interest, or with respect to the nature, extent, or calculation of the amount of Additional Interest owed, or with respect
to the method employed in such calculation of the Additional Interest. 
 SECTION 1021. Limitations on Co-Issuer. (a) The Company
shall not cease to beneficially own (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, 100% of the Voting Stock of the Co-Issuer. The Co-Issuer shall be designated as a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company at all
times and shall not own any material assets or other property, other than Indebtedness or other obligations owing to the Co-Issuer by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or engage in any trade or conduct any business other than treasury,
cash management, hedging and cash pooling activities and activities incidental thereto. The Co-Issuer shall not incur any material liabilities or obligations other than its obligations pursuant to the Notes or this Indenture and other Indebtedness
permitted to be incurred by the Co-Issuer under Section 1011 and Section 1012 and liabilities and obligations pursuant to business activities permitted by this Section 1021. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Co-Issuer may be a co-obligor or guarantor with respect to Indebtedness if the Company is an obligor of such Indebtedness and the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are received by the Company or one or more of the Company’s Subsidiary
Guarantors. 
 (b) The Company shall not sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Capital Stock of the Co-Issuer and shall not permit the
Co-Issuer, directly or indirectly, to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of its Capital Stock.

Article. 
  

 123 

 SECTION 1103. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Company or the Co-Issuer
to redeem any Notes pursuant to Section 1101 above shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company and/or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be. If the Company or the Co-Issuer elects to redeem Notes pursuant to
Section 1101 hereof, it shall furnish 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 Section 1105 hereof, an Officers’ Certificate setting
forth (i) the paragraph or subparagraph of such Note and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the

 SECTION 1104. Selection by Trustee of Notes to Be Redeemed. (a) If the Company or the Co-Issuer is redeeming
less than all of the Notes at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on
which such Notes are listed or (b) if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable; provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. 
 (b) If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, any notice of redemption that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount
thereof to be redeemed. 
 (c) A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of any Note redeemed in part shall be issued in
the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the Redemption Date, unless the Company or the Co-Issuer defaults in the
redemption payment, interest shall cease to accrue on the Note or portions thereof called for redemption. 
 SECTION 1105. Notice of
Redemption. 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 at such Holder’s registered address, except that notices
of redemption may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
 (1) the Redemption Date, 
 (2) the Redemption Price and the amount of accrued interest to the
Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1107, if any, 
 (3) if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of a partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, 
  

 124 

 (4) in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such
Note shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, the Holder shall receive, without charge, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed, 
 (5) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price (and accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as provided in
Section 1107) shall become due and payable upon each such Note, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 
 (6) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any,

 (7) the name and address of the Paying Agent, 
 (8) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price, 
 (9) that, unless the Company or the Co-Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases
to accrue on and after the Redemption Date; 
 (10) the “CUSIP” number, ISIN or “Common Code” number and
that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the “CUSIP” number, ISIN or “Common Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes, and 
 (11) the paragraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed. 
 At the Company’s or the Co-Issuer’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s
name and at the Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s expense; provided that the Company and the Co-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 1105 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officers’ Certificate from each of the Company and the Co-Issuer requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth
the information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 1103. 
 SECTION 1106. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once
notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 1105 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price. 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 1107 hereof, on and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption. 
  

 125 

 SECTION 1107. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on any
Redemption Date, the Company or the Co-Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company or the Co-Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of
money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, on, all the Notes that are to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company or the Co-Issuer, as
the case may be, any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Interest, if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 
 SECTION 1108. Notes Payable on Redemption Date. (a) Notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption
Date), and from and after such date (unless the Company or the Co-Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance
with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company or the Co-Issuer at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date and such Notes shall be canceled by the Trustee;
provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more Predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of business
on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 306. 
 (b) If any Note called for redemption shall
not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Notes. 
 SECTION 1109. Notes Redeemed in Part. Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article) shall be
surrendered at the office or agency of the Company and the Co-Issuer maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with, if the Company and the Co-Issuer or the Trustee so require, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer
in form satisfactory to the Company and the Co-Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company and the Co-Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the
principal of the Note so surrendered; provided that no Note of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part.

 ARTICLE TWELVE 
 GUARANTEES 
 SECTION 1201. Subsidiary Guarantees. From and after the consummation of the
Acquisition, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the Notes and obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer hereunder and
thereunder, and guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and to the Trustee for itself and on behalf of such Holder, that: (1) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on, or Additional Interest
in respect of, the Notes shall be paid in full when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise (including the amount that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy
Law), together with interest on the overdue principal, if any, and interest on any overdue interest, to the extent lawful, and all other obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be paid
in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (2) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or of any such other obligations, the same shall be 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, subject, however, in the case of clauses (1) and (2) above, to the limitation set forth in Section 1204 hereof.

 (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that its 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 with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the
recovery of any judgment against the Company or the Co-Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, filing of claims
with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the Co-Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, the Co-Issuer or any other Person, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the
Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be discharged as to any Note except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Note, this Indenture and such Subsidiary Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges
that the Subsidiary Guarantee is a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due and not of collection. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or
interest on such Note, whether at its Stated Maturity, by acceleration, purchase or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Note, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Indenture, directly against each of the Subsidiary 

  

 127 

 
Guarantors to enforce such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company, the Co-Issuer or any other
Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to
accelerate the Maturity of the Notes, to collect interest on the Notes, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Notes, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holder, upon demand
therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders. 
 (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in
relation to either the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, the Subsidiary Guarantee of each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be
reinstated in full force and effect. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between each Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee on the other hand, (1) subject to this Article Twelve, the Maturity of
the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Five hereof for the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration
in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any acceleration of such obligation as provided in Article Five hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each
Subsidiary Guarantor for the purpose of the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor. The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does
not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantees. 
 (d) Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect
and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company or the Co-Issuer for liquidation, reorganization, should the Company or the Co-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 Company’s or the Co-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, 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. 
 SECTION 1202.
Severability. In case any provision of any Subsidiary 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 to the
extent permitted by applicable law. 
  

 128 

 SECTION 1203. Reserved. 
 SECTION 1204. Limitation of Subsidiary Guarantors’ Liability. Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder hereby
confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Subsidiary Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the 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 Subsidiary Guarantee or the provisions of its local law relating to fraudulent transfer or conveyance. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the
Trustee, the Holders and each such Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum
amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary 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
Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article Twelve, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or
fraudulent transfer under applicable law. 
 SECTION 1205. Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment under its
Subsidiary Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata
portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP. 
 SECTION 1206. Subrogation. Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of Holders against the Company or the Co-Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by any Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the
provisions of Section 1201; provided, however, that, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Subsidiary 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 Company or the Co-Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes shall have been paid in full. 
 SECTION 1207. Reinstatement. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees (and each Person who becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor shall agree) that the Subsidiary Guarantee provided for in Section 1201 shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time, payment, or any part thereof, of any obligations or interest thereon is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by a Holder to the Company or the Co-Issuer upon the
bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor. 
  

 129 

 SECTION 1208. Release of a Subsidiary Guarantor. The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Subsidiary
Guarantor shall automatically and unconditionally be released and discharged, and no further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee is required for the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary
Guarantee, upon: 
 (1) (A) the sale, disposition or other transfer (including through merger or consolidation) of all of the
Capital Stock (or any sale, disposition or other transfer of Capital Stock following which such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary), or all or substantially all the assets, of such Subsidiary Guarantor (other than a sale,
disposition or other transfer to a Restricted Subsidiary) if such sale, disposition or other transfer is made in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 
 (B) such Subsidiary Guarantor becoming a Partially Owned Operating Company or, following a Permitted MLP Transfer, a MLP Subsidiary of the
MLP that was subject to such MLP Transfer; 
 (C) the designation by the Company of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 1010 of this Indenture and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”; 
 (D) the release or discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its guarantee of Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities or the guarantee that resulted in the obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor to
guarantee the Notes, in each case, if such Subsidiary Guarantor would not then otherwise be required to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 1015 of this Indenture (treating any guarantees of such Subsidiary Guarantor that remain outstanding
as incurred at least 30 days prior to such release), except, in each case, a release or discharge by, or as a result of, payment under such Subsidiary Guarantee or payment in full of the Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facilities; or

 (E) exercise by the Company and the Co-Issuer of their Legal Defeasance option of the Notes under Section 1302 of this
Indenture or their Covenant Defeasance option of the Notes under Section 1303 of this Indenture or if the Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with Section 401 of this
Indenture; and 
 (2) in the case of clause (1)(A) above, the release or discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its
guarantee, if any, of and all pledges and security, if any, granted in connection with, the Senior Credit Facilities and any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary. 
  

 130 

 SECTION 1209. Benefits Acknowledged. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it shall receive
direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and from its guarantee and waivers pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantees under this Article Twelve. 
  

 131 

 ARTICLE THIRTEEN 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 SECTION 1301. Company’s and Co-Issuer’s
Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company and the Co-Issuer may, at their option, and at any time, elect to have either Section 1302 or Section 1303 be applied to all Outstanding Notes upon compliance with
the conditions set forth below in this Article Thirteen. 
 SECTION 1302. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s
and the Co-Issuer’s exercise under Section 1301 of the option applicable to this Section 1302, each of the Company, the Co-Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from its respective obligations
with respect to all Outstanding Notes on the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Legal Defeasance means that each of the Company, the Co-Issuer
and the Subsidiary Guarantors 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 1305 and the
other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture insofar as such Notes and their related Subsidiary Guarantees are concerned (and the
Trustee, at the expense of the Company and the Co-Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (1) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest
on such Notes when such payments are due solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture (as described in Section 1304), 
 (2) the Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Sections 303, 304, 305, 1002 and 1003, 
 (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, and the obligations of each of the Company, the Co-Issuer
and the Subsidiary Guarantors in connection therewith and 
 (4) this Article Thirteen. 
 Subject to compliance with this Article Thirteen, the Company and the Co-Issuer may exercise their option under this Section 1302 notwithstanding
the prior exercise of their option under Section 1303 with respect to the Notes. 
 SECTION 1303. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the
Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s exercise under Section 1301 of the option applicable to this Section 1303, each of the Company, the Co-Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be released from 

  

 132 

 
its respective obligations under any covenant contained in Sections 801, 802, 803 and in Sections 1005, 1006, 1007, 1009 through and including 1019
and 1021 with respect to the Outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not to be “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. For
this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, 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 Sections 501(3), 501(4), 501(5) and 501(7) and, with respect to only any Significant Subsidiary and not the Company or the Co-Issuer, Section 501(6), but,
except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. 
 SECTION 1304. Conditions to
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1302 or Section 1303 to the Outstanding Notes: 
 (1) the Company and the Co-Issuer shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee
satisfying the requirements of Section 608 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article Thirteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security
for, and dedicated solely to the benefit of the Holders of such Notes; (A) cash in U.S. dollars, or (B) non-callable Government Securities, or (C) a combination thereof, in such amounts as shall be sufficient, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge,
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest due on the Outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity (or Redemption Date, if applicable) of such principal (and premium, if any) or, interest due on the Notes; provided that the Trustee shall
have been irrevocably instructed to apply such cash or the proceeds of such Government Securities to said payments with respect to the Notes; before such a deposit, the Company and the Co-Issuer may give to the Trustee, in accordance with
Section 1103 hereof, a notice of its election to redeem all of the Outstanding Notes at a future date in accordance with Article Eleven hereof, which notice shall be irrevocable; such irrevocable redemption notice, if given, shall be given
effect in applying the foregoing; 
 (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall have delivered
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, 
  

 133 

 (A) the Company and the Co-Issuer have received from, or there has been published by, the
United States Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or 
 (B) since the issuance of the Notes, 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 in the United States
shall confirm that, subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, the Holders shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and shall 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 Company and the Co-Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that, subject to customary assumptions and
exclusions, the Holders shall not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and shall 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 (other than that resulting from borrowing
funds to be applied to make such deposit and the granting of Liens in connection therewith) shall have occurred and be 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 any of the
Senior Credit Facilities, or any other material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which, the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party or by which the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor is
bound; 
 (6) the Company and the Co-Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States of
America to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to customary assumptions and exclusions following the deposit, the trust funds shall not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally under any applicable U.S. Federal or state law, and that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such trust funds for the ratable benefit of the Holders; 
 (7) the Company and the Co-Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made
by the Company or the Co-Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor or others; and 
  

 134 

 (8) the Company and the Co-Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the United States of America (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. 
 SECTION 1305. Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be
Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. All cash and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 1305, the
“Qualifying Trustee”) pursuant to Section 1304 in respect of the Outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Qualifying Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company or a Subsidiary acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Qualifying Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of
principal (and premium, if any) and interest, but such money or Government Securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

 1.3 Capitalized terms used in this Appendix, but not defined, have the meanings ascribed to such
terms in the Indenture to which this Appendix is attached. 
 2. The Notes. 
 2.1(a) Form and Dating. The Initial Notes shall be offered and sold by the Company and the Co-Issuer pursuant to a Purchase Agreement. The
Initial Notes shall be resold initially only to (i) QIBs in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and (ii) Persons other than U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S) in reliance on
Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”). Initial Notes may thereafter be transferred to, among others, QIBs and purchasers in reliance on Regulation S, subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein.
Initial Notes initially resold pursuant to Rule 144A shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent global Notes in definitive, fully registered form (collectively, the “Rule 144A Global Note”); and Initial Notes initially
resold pursuant to Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more temporary global notes in fully registered form (collectively, the “Temporary Regulation S Global Note”), in each case without interest coupons and with
the global notes legend and the applicable restricted notes legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Initial Notes represented thereby with the Notes Custodian and registered in the name
of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository, duly executed by the Company and the Co-Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee as provided in this Indenture. Except as set forth in this Section 2.1(a), beneficial ownership interests in the
Temporary Regulation S Global Note shall be held only through the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, S.A. (“Clearstream”) (as indirect participants in the Depository) and shall not be exchangeable for
interests in the Rule 144A Global Note, a permanent Regulation S global note in fully registered form (the “Permanent Regulation S Global Note”, and together with the Temporary Regulation S Global Note, the “Regulation S Global
Note”) or any other Note prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period and then, after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, may be exchanged for interests in a Rule 144A Global Note or the Permanent
Regulation S Global Note only upon certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 3 or otherwise 

  

 3 

 
in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that beneficial ownership interests in such Temporary Regulation S Global Note are owned either by non-U.S.
persons or U.S. persons who purchased such interests in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act. 
 Prior to the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in Temporary Regulation S Global Notes may be exchanged for interests in Rule 144A Global Notes if (1) such exchange occurs
in connection with a transfer of Notes in compliance with Rule 144A and (2) the transferor of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in a form
substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit 2) to the effect that the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note is being transferred (a) to a Person who the transferor reasonably believes to be a QIB that
is purchasing for its own account or the account of a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, and (b) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the States of the United States and other jurisdictions. 

Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a
Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as
Exhibit 2) to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if applicable). 
 The Rule 144A Global Note, the Temporary Regulation S Global Note and the Permanent Regulation S Global Note are
collectively referred to herein as “Global Notes”. The aggregate principal amount of the Global Notes may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depository or its nominee as
hereinafter provided. 
 (b) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.1(b) shall apply only to a Global Note
deposited with or on behalf of the Depository. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall, in
accordance with this Section 2.1(b), authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global Notes that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of the Depository and (b) shall be delivered by the Trustee to
the Depository or pursuant to the Depository’s instructions or held by the Trustee as custodian for the Depository. 
 Members of, or participants in, the Depository (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository or by the Trustee as the custodian of the Depository
or under such Global Note, and the Company, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Depository as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Company, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written 

  

 4 

 
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of
customary practices of such Depository governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. 
 (c) Certificated Notes. Except as provided in this Section 2.1 or Section 2.3 or 2.4, owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Certificated Notes. 
 2.2 Authentication. The Trustee shall upon receipt of a Company Order specified in
Section 202 of the Indenture authenticate and deliver: (1) on the Issue Date, an aggregate principal amount of $250,000,000 8 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2013, (2) any Additional Notes for an original issue in an aggregate principal amount specified in the written order of the Company pursuant to Section 202 of the Indenture
and (3) Exchange Notes or Private Exchange Notes for issue only in a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange, respectively, pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, for a like principal amount of Initial Notes, in each case upon a
Company Order signed by two Officers or by an Officer and either an Assistant Treasurer or an Assistant Secretary of each of the Company and the Co-Issuer. Such Company Order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and the date on
which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and, in the case of any issuance of Additional Notes pursuant to Section 312 of the Indenture, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 1011 of the Indenture.

the Note Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided,
however, that the Certificated Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange: 
 (i) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by
a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and 
 (ii) if such Certificated Notes are required to bear a restricted notes legend, they are being transferred or exchanged pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act, pursuant to Section 2.3(b) or pursuant to clause (A), (B) or (C) below, and are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: 

 

 5

registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect; or 
 (B) if such
Certificated Notes are being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect; or 
 (C) if such Certificated Notes
are being transferred (x) pursuant to an exemption from registration in accordance with Rule 144A, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the Securities Act; or (y) in reliance upon another exemption from the requirements of the
Securities Act: (i) a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse of the Note) and (ii) if the Company so requests, an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to it as to the compliance with the
restrictions set forth in the legend set forth in Section 2.3(e)(i). 
 (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Certificated
Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Certificated Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note or a Permanent Regulation S Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set

elects to hold its interest in such Note in the form of a beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Note; and 
 (ii) written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Notes Custodian to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Rule 144A Global Note (in the case of a transfer pursuant to
clause (b)(i)(A)) or Permanent Regulation S Global Note (in the case of a transfer pursuant to clause (b)(i)(B)) to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Rule 144A Global Note or
Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depository account to be credited with such increase, 
 then the Trustee shall cancel such Certificated Note and cause, or direct the Notes Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depository and the Notes Custodian, the aggregate
principal amount of Notes represented by the Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Certificated Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be
credited to the account of the Person 

  

 6 

 
specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, equal to the
principal amount of the Certificated Note so canceled. If no Rule 144A Global Notes or Permanent Regulation S Global Notes, as applicable, are then outstanding, the Company and the Co-Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon
receipt of a Company Order, a new Rule 144A Global Note or Permanent Regulation S Global Note, as applicable, in the appropriate principal amount. 
 (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. 
 (i) The transfer and exchange of Global
Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depository therefor. A transferor of
a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Note Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be credited with a
beneficial interest in the Global Note. The Note Registrar shall, in accordance with such instructions instruct the Depository to credit to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note and to
debit the account of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. 
 (ii) If
the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global
Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal
amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Appendix (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the
Depository or by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 
 (iv) In the event that Global Note is exchanged for Certificated Notes to Section 2.4 of this Appendix, prior to the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to
such Notes, such Notes may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the Initial Notes (as
set forth in Exhibit 2, hereto) 

  

 7 

 
intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act, as the case
may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Company and the Co-Issuer.

(iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States. 
 (e) Legend.

otherwise than in reliance on Regulation S shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR)
WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH
REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THIS NOTE IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER OF THIS NOTE MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A
THEREUNDER. 
 THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY AND THE CO-ISSUER THAT (A) THIS NOTE MAY BE OFFERED,
RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) TO THE COMPANY, (II) IN THE UNITED STATES TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN A
TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A, (III) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (IV) PURSUANT TO EXEMPTION 

  

 8

OF THIS NOTE FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE. 
 Each certificate evidencing a Note offered in reliance on Regulation S
shall, in addition to the foregoing, bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) WAS ORIGINALLY
ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION ORIGINALLY EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, ANY U.S. PERSON
EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. TERMS USED ABOVE HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM IN REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 Each Certificated Note shall also bear the following additional legend: 
 IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER, THE HOLDER WILL DELIVER TO THE NOTE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT SUCH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER INFORMATION AS SUCH TRANSFER AGENT MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFER
COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS. 
 (ii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Note (including any
Transfer Restricted Note represented by a Global Note) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Note Registrar shall permit the transferee thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a certificated Note that does not bear the
legend set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Note, if the transferor thereof certifies in writing to the Note Registrar that such sale or transfer was made in reliance on Rule 144 (such
certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse of the Note). 
  

 9 

 (iii) After a transfer of any Initial Notes or Private Exchange Notes pursuant to and
during the period of the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Initial Notes or Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, all requirements pertaining to legends on such Initial Note or such Private Exchange Note
shall cease to apply, the requirements requiring any such Initial Note or such Private Exchange Note issued to certain Holders be issued in global form shall cease to apply, and a certificated Initial Note or Private Exchange Note or an Initial Note
or Private Exchange Note in global form, in each case without restrictive transfer legends, shall be available to the transferee of the Holder of such Initial Notes or Private Exchange Notes upon exchange of such transferring Holder’s
certificated Initial Note or Private Exchange Note or directions to transfer such Holder’s interest in the Global Note, as applicable. 
 (iv) Upon the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the Initial Notes, all requirements pertaining to such Initial Notes that Initial Notes issued to certain Holders be issued in global form
shall still apply with respect to Holders of such Initial Notes that do not exchange their Initial Notes, and Exchange Notes in certificated or global form, in each case without the restricted notes legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto shall be
available to Holders that exchange such Initial Notes in such Registered Exchange Offer. 
 (v) Upon the consummation of a
Private Exchange with respect to the Initial Notes, all requirements pertaining to such Initial Notes that Initial Notes issued to certain Holders be issued in global form shall still apply with respect to Holders of such Initial Notes that do not
exchange their Initial Notes, and Private Exchange Notes in global form with the global notes legend and the applicable restricted notes legend set forth in Exhibit 1 hereto shall be available to Holders that exchange such Initial Notes in such
Private Exchange. 
 (f) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial interests in a
Global Note have been exchanged for Certificated Notes, redeemed, purchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned to the Depository for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any
beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for certificated Notes, redeemed, purchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the
Trustee (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Notes Custodian, to reflect such reduction. 
  

 10 

 (g) No Obligation of the Trustee. 
 (i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the
Depository or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depository or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant,
member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depository) of any notice (including any notice of redemption) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and
all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depository or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global
Note shall be exercised only through the Depository subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF INITIAL NOTE] 
 8 1/2% Senior Note Due 2013 
 Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall
have the meanings given to such terms in the Indenture. 
 1. Principal and Interest. 
 Targa Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) and Targa Resources Finance Corporation (the “Co-Issuer”) shall, jointly and
severally, pay the principal of this Note on November 1, 2013. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer jointly and severally promise to pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the principal amount of this Note on each Interest Payment Date, as set forth below, at the rate of 8 1/2% per annum (subject to adjustment as provided below). 
 Interest, and Additional Interest, if any, shall be payable semi-annually (to the Holders of the Notes at the close of business on
April 15 or October 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on each Interest Payment Date, commencing May 1, 2006. 
 The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated October 31, 2005, among the Company, the Co-Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers named
therein (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), including with respect to Additional Interest. 
 Interest, including
Additional Interest, if any, on this Note shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on this Note or the Note surrendered in exchange herefor or, if no interest has been paid, from October 31, 2005; provided
that, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next
succeeding Interest Payment Date. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 The
Company and the Co-Issuer shall, jointly and severally, pay interest and Additional Interest if any, on overdue principal and premium, if any, and interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent lawful, at a rate per annum equal to the
rate of interest applicable to the Notes. 
 2. Method of Payment. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer shall pay interest (except defaulted interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each May 1 and
November 1 to the Persons who are Holders (as reflected in the Note Register at the close of business on April 15 and October 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even if the Note is transferred or

pay principal (premium, if any) and interest by their check payable in such money. The Company and the Co-Issuer may pay interest on the Notes either (a) by mailing a check for such interest to a Holder’s registered address (as reflected
in the Note Register) or (b) by wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the payee. If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next
succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the
terms of the Indenture shall control. 
 The Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer. The
Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company and the Co-Issuer may issue Additional Notes. 
 5. Redemption. 
 At
any time prior to November 1, 2009, the Company and the Co-Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes
redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest
Payment Date.

up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 108.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and Additional Interest, if any, to the
applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings of the Company or any direct or
indirect parent of the Company to the extent such net cash proceeds are contributed to the Company; provided that at least 65% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture and the original
principal amount of any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date remains Outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; provided, further, that each such redemption occurs within

Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Note Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of a Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in
part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or any Note or portion of a Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an Interest Payment Date. 
 8. Persons Deemed Owners. 
 A registered Holder may be treated as the owner of a Note for all purposes. 
 9. Unclaimed Money. 
 Subject to any laws relating to abandoned property, if money for the payment of principal (premium, if any) or interest remains unclaimed
for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company or the Co-Issuer on Company Request or (if then held by the Company or the Co-Issuer) shall be discharged from such trust. After that, Holders entitled to the
money must look to the Company or the Co-Issuer for payment and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money, and all liability of the Company or the Co-Issuer as trustee thereof, shall cease. 
 10. Discharge and Defeasance Prior to Redemption or Maturity. 
 Subject to satisfaction of conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company and the Co-Issuer at any time may terminate some or all of
their obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company and the Co-Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee cash or Government Securities or a combination thereof sufficient for the payment of the then outstanding principal of and
interest on the Notes to Redemption or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes, and any existing Default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or
the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency and make any change that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder.

 12. Restrictive Covenants. 
 The Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) Restricted Payments;

time period then in effect under the rules and regulations of the Exchange Act) after the end of each fiscal year, the Company must report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations. 
 13. Successor Persons. 
 When a successor Person or other entity assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture, the predecessor Person shall be released from those obligations, subject to certain exceptions. 
 14. Remedies for Events of Default. 
 If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare all Outstanding Notes to be
immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary occurs and is continuing, the Notes automatically become immediately
due and payable. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any rights or powers under the Indenture at
the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes are given the right to 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 the 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.

 15. Subsidiary Guarantees. 
 The Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s obligations under the Notes are fully, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed on an
unsecured senior basis, to the extent set forth in the Indenture, by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors.

Company and the Co-Issuer. 
 The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for, and otherwise deal with, the Company, the Co-Issuer and any of their Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

 1. Principal and Interest. 
 Targa Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) and Targa Resources Finance Corporation (the “Co-Issuer”) shall, jointly and severally, pay the principal of this Note on November 1, 2013. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer jointly and severally promise to pay interest and
Additional Interest, if any, on the principal amount of this Note on each Interest Payment Date, as set forth below, at the rate of 8 1/2% per annum (subject to adjustment as provided below). 
 Interest, and Additional
Interest, if any, shall be payable semi-annually (to the Holders of the Notes at the close of business on April 15 or October 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date) on each Interest Payment Date, commencing May 1, 2006.

 The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Exchange

October 31, 2005; provided that, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date,
interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer shall, jointly and severally, pay interest and Additional Interest if any, on overdue principal and premium, if any, and interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent
lawful, at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the Notes.

 2. Method of Payment. 
 The Company and the Co-Issuer shall pay interest (except defaulted interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each May 1 and

The Company may pay interest on the Notes either (a) by mailing a check for such interest to a Holder’s registered address (as reflected in the Note Register) or (b) by wire transfer to an account located in the United States
maintained by the payee. If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

 3. Paying Agent and Note Registrar.

Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency
between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control. 
 The Notes are
unsecured senior obligations of the Company and the Co-Issuer. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company and the Co-Issuer may issue Additional Notes.

  

 4 

 5. Redemption. 
 At any time prior to November 1, 2009, the Company and the Co-Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days’ prior notice at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the Redemption Date, subject to

up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price equal to 108.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and Additional Interest, if any, to the
applicable Redemption Date, subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings of the Company or any direct or
indirect parent of the Company to the extent such net cash proceeds are contributed to the Company; provided that at least 65% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture and the original
principal amount of any Additional Notes issued under the Indenture after the Issue Date remains Outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption; provided, further, that each such redemption occurs within
90 days of the date of closing of each such Equity Offering. 
 6. Repurchase upon a Change of Control, Asset Sales, Permitted MLP
Transfers, Permitted GP Transfers and Extraordinary Distributions. 
 Upon the occurrence of (a) a Change of Control,
the Holders shall have the right to require that the Company and the Co-Issuer purchase such Holder’s outstanding Notes, in whole or in part, at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and

 The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral
multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Note Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company
and the Co-Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Note Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of a Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption (except, in the case
of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) or any Note or portion of a Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an Interest Payment Date. 
 8. Persons Deemed Owners. 
 A registered Holder may be treated as the owner of a Note for all purposes. 
 9. Unclaimed Money. 
 Subject to any laws relating to abandoned property, if money for the payment of principal (premium, if any) or interest remains unclaimed
for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for
payment and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall cease. 
 10. Discharge and Defeasance Prior to Redemption or Maturity. 
 Subject to
satisfaction of conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company and the Co-Issuer at any time may terminate some or all of their obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company and the Co-Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee
cash or Government Securities or a combination thereof sufficient for the payment of the then outstanding principal of and interest on the Notes to Redemption or Stated Maturity, as the case may be. 
  

 6 

 11. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. 
 Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, including consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes, and any existing Default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or
the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency and make any change that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder. 
 12. Restrictive Covenants. 
 The Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) Restricted Payments; (ii) incurrence of Indebtedness and issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock;
(iii) Liens; (iv) transactions with Affiliates; (v) dividend and other payment restrictions affecting Restricted Subsidiaries; (vi) guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries; (vii) activities of the Co-Issuer;
(viii) merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all assets; (ix) purchase of Notes upon a Change in Control; (x) sale and lease-back transactions; (xi) disposition of proceeds of Asset Sales; and
(xii) disposition of proceeds of Permitted MLP Transfers, Permitted GP Transfers and Extraordinary Distributions. Within 120 days (or the successor time period then in effect under the rules and regulations of the Exchange Act) after the end of
each fiscal year, the Company must report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations. 
 13. Successor Persons. 
 When a successor Person or other entity assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture, the predecessor
Person shall be released from those obligations, subject to certain exceptions. 
 14. Remedies for Events of Default. 
 If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 30% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare all Outstanding Notes to be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Significant
Subsidiary occurs and is continuing, the Notes automatically become immediately due and payable. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
shall be under no obligation to exercise any rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or
expense. Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of

  

 7 

 
exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the 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. 
 15. Subsidiary Guarantees. 
 The Company’s obligations under the Notes are fully,
irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis, to the extent set forth in the Indenture, by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
 16. Trustee Dealings with Company. 
 The Trustee under the Indenture, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for, and otherwise deal with, the Company and its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee. 
 17. Authentication. 
 This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note. 
 18.

tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian) and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
 19. CUSIP Numbers. 
 Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company and the Co-Issuer have caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP 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.

 EXHIBIT B 
 FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE 
 TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS 
 SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of
                    , 200__, among
                                 (the “Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), a
subsidiary of Targa Resources, Inc. (or its permitted successor), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Targa Resources Finance Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Co-Issuer”), the other Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined
in the Indenture referred to herein) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the
Co-Issuer have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee a senior unsecured indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of October 31, 2005 providing for the issuance of 8 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2013 (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 Company’s and the Co-Issuer’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 901 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
Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee 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 SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to provide an unconditional Subsidiary Guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Subsidiary Guarantee and in the Indenture
including but not limited to Article 12 thereof. 
 3. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, officer, employee,
incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company, the Co-Issuer or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, any Note Guarantees, the Indenture or this
Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation; provided that the foregoing shall not limit any of the Company’s or the Co-Issuer’s obligations under the Notes.
Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release 

 
are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is
the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against public policy. 
 4. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 5. COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 6. EFFECT OF
HEADINGS. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 7. THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee
shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary, the Co-Issuer and the Company. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed and
attested, all as of the date first above written.

any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations of such Borrower, whether as principal, interest or otherwise; and 
 (b) any
payment by, or distribution of the assets of, such Borrower of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which any Subordinated Creditor would be entitled except for the terms set forth in this Exhibit C shall be paid

Obligations of such Borrower remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the Holders in respect of the Senior Obligations, to be held and applied by the Trustee as provided in the Indenture. 
 SECTION 1.3. Payment of Subordinated Obligations Prohibited. (a) No cash payment (whether directly, by exercise of any right of set-off
or otherwise) in respect of any Subordinated Obligation of any Borrower, whether as principal, interest or otherwise, shall be permitted at any time prior to the Permitted Date. 
 (b) No payment of any Subordinated Obligation that is prohibited by paragraph (a) above shall be received or accepted by or on behalf of any
Subordinated Creditor. 

 SECTION 1.4. Certain Payments Held in Trust. In the event that any payment by, or
distribution of the assets of, any Borrower of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, and whether directly, by exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise, shall be received by or on behalf of any Subordinated Creditor at
a time when such payment is prohibited by Section 1.3, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over to, the Trustee to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all Senior
Obligations of such Borrower remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the Holders in respect of such Senior Obligations, to be held and applied by the Trustee as provided in the Indenture. 
 SECTION 1.5. Subrogation. Subject to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Senior Obligations of a Borrower, the applicable
Subordinated Creditors of such Borrower shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders to receive payments or distributions in cash, property or securities of such Borrower applicable to such Senior Obligations until all amounts owing on the
Subordinated Obligations of such Borrower shall be paid in full, and as between and among a Borrower, its creditors (other than its Holders) and the applicable Subordinated Creditors of such Borrower, no such payment or distribution made to the
Trustee by virtue of the terms set forth in this Exhibit C that otherwise would have been made to the Subordinated Creditors of such Borrower shall be deemed to be a payment by such Borrower on account of its Subordinated Obligations, it being
understood that the terms of this Exhibit C are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Subordinated Creditors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand. 
 SECTION 1.6. No Waiver. No right of any Holder to enforce the terms set forth in this Exhibit C shall at any time or in any way be
prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any of the Trustee, the Holders, or any Borrower, or by any noncompliance by any Borrower with the terms, provisions and covenants contained herein, and the Holders are hereby
expressly authorized to extend, renew, increase, decrease, modify or amend the terms of the Senior Obligations or any security therefor, and to release, sell or exchange any such security and otherwise deal freely with the Borrowers, all without
notice to or consent of any Subordinated Creditor and without affecting the liabilities and obligations of the parties hereto. 
 SECTION 1.7. Acceleration and Remedies; Bankruptcy Filings. Each Subordinated Creditor agrees that, prior to the Permitted Date, (a) it will not exercise any remedies or take any action or proceeding to enforce any
Subordinated Obligation, (b) it will not file, or join with any other creditors of any Borrower in filing, any petition commencing any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement or receivership proceeding or any assignment for the
benefit of creditors against or in respect of any Borrower or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of any Borrower, or (c) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, it will not cause any Borrower to file any such
petition, commence any such proceeding or make any such assignment. 

 SECTION 1.8. Transfer of Subordinated Obligations. Each Subordinated Creditor agrees that it
will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Subordinated Obligations owed to it unless the Person to whom such sale, assignment, transfer or disposition is made (i) is a Subordinated Creditor hereunder or
(ii) shall acknowledge in writing (delivered to the Trustee) that it shall be bound by the terms of this Exhibit C, including the terms of this Section 1.8, as though named herein as a Subordinated Creditor. 
 SECTION 1.9. Conflict of Subordinated Obligations. If any Subordinated Creditor subordinates the Subordinated Obligations to other
Indebtedness or liabilities owed by a Borrower on terms that require that payments or distributions be held in trust or turned over to the creditors of such Subordinated Creditor entitled to the benefits of such subordination or any trustee or
representative thereof, and such subordination is in conflict with Sections 1.2(b), 1.4 or 1.5 hereof, then such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for, and paid or delivered to, the Trustee or such creditors or their trustee or
representatives as their interest may appear or as a court a competent jurisdiction may direct.Registration Rights Agreement

 Credit Suisse First Boston LLC 
 Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated 
 Goldman, Sachs & Co., 
 As Representatives of the Several Purchasers, 
       c/o Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, 
                     Eleven Madison Avenue, 
                         New York, N.Y. 10010-3629 
 Dear Sirs: 
 Targa Resources Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and Targa
Resources Finance Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Co-Issuer”), propose to issue and sell to the several initial purchasers named in Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Purchasers”), upon the terms
set forth in a purchase agreement dated October 18, 2005 (the “Purchase Agreement”), $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of their Senior Notes due 2013 (the “Initial Securities”) to be unconditionally
guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) by each of the subsidiaries of the Issuer named in Schedule B hereto (the “Guarantors” and together with the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, the “Company”). The Initial
Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of October 31, 2005, (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”). As
an inducement to the Purchasers, the Company agrees with the Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities (including, without limitation, the Purchasers), the Exchange Securities (as defined below) and the Private Exchange
Securities (as defined below) (collectively the “Holders”), as follows: 
 1. Registered Exchange Offer. The
Company shall, at its own cost, prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), within two years after the Issue Date (as defined below), a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer
Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a proposed offer (the “Registered Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of
Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the
Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the “Exchange Securities”) of the Issuer and Co-Issuer issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the applicable series of Initial
Securities surrendered by such Holder (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act within 870 days after the Issue Date, (ii) as soon as practicable after the
effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, offer the Exchange Notes in exchange for surrender of the Notes and (iii) keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement open for not less than 20 business days (or longer, if
required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the “Exchange Offer Registration Period”). 

 If the Company effects the Registered Exchange
Offer, the Company (i) will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer 20 business days after the commencement thereof (provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance
with the terms of the Registered Exchange Offer) and (ii) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Registered Exchange Offer not later than 910 days (or if the 910th
 day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the date of original issue of the Initial Securities (the “Issue Date”) (such 910th day, or the first business day thereafter, the “Consummation Deadline”). 
 The Company may, in its discretion, accept tenders of Initial Securities for Exchange Securities after the date that the Company consummates the
Registered Exchange Offer with respect to Initial Securities tendered as of the date of initial consummation and, for purposes of Section 6(a)(ii), the Registered Exchange Offer shall be deemed to have been consummated notwithstanding any such
extension of the tender period. 
 Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement,
the Company shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer for the applicable series of the Initial Securities, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities electing to
exchange the Initial Securities of such series for Exchange Securities of the same series (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course
of such Holder’s business and has no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered
Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States.
The Company’s obligations under each Registered Exchange Offer and each Private Exchange shall be subject to the conditions that (i) such Registered Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, as the case may be, does not violate applicable law or
any applicable interpretation of the staff of the Commission; (ii) no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by any governmental agency which might materially impair the ability of the Issuer to proceed
with such Registered Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, and no material adverse development shall have occurred in any existing action or proceeding with respect to the Company; and (iii) all governmental approvals that the Company deems
necessary for the consummation of such Registered Exchange Offer or Private Exchange shall have been obtained. 
 The Company acknowledges
that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker or dealer registered under the Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (a “broker-dealer”) electing to exchange Initial Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange
Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and
the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) an Initial Purchaser that elects to sell Private Exchange Securities (as defined below) acquired in exchange for Initial Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required
to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such sale. 
 The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to 

  

 2 

 
permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time
as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer or an
Initial Purchaser, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days (or such shorter period during which such person is required by applicable law to deliver such prospectus) and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers and the Initial Purchasers have
sold all Exchange Securities held by them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, available to any broker-dealer or other
person with similar prospectus delivery requirements for use in connection with any resale of any series of Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 90 days after the effective date of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement relating to
such series (or such shorter period during which such persons are required by applicable law to deliver such prospectus). 
 If, upon
consummation of each Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial Purchaser holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part of its initial distribution, the Company, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registered
Exchange Offer, shall issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser upon the written request of such Initial Purchaser, in exchange (the “Private Exchange”) for the Initial Securities held by such Initial Purchaser, a like principal
amount of debt securities of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United
States, but excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Initial Securities (the “Private Exchange Securities”). The Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange
Securities are herein collectively called the “Securities”. 
 In connection with each Registered Exchange Offer, the
Company shall: 
 (a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents; 
 (b) keep the applicable Registered
Exchange Offer open for not less than 30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders; 
 (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the applicable Registered Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee;

 (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last
business day on which the applicable Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 
 (e) otherwise comply with all
applicable laws. 
 As soon as practicable after the close of the applicable Registered Exchange Offer or the applicable Private Exchange, as
the case may be, the Company shall: 
 (x) accept for exchange all the Initial Securities validly tendered and not
withdrawn pursuant to such Registered Exchange Offer and such Private Exchange; 
 (y) deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation all the Initial Securities so accepted for exchange; and 
  

 3 

 (z) cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the
Initial Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities of each series, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such series of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 
 The Indenture will provide that the Exchange Securities will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture and that all the
Securities issued pursuant to such Indenture will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter. 
 Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to each Registered Exchange Offer and in each Private Exchange will
accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the Issue Date. 
 Each Holder participating in each Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of the consummation of the
applicable Registered Exchange Offer that: (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate
in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Securities, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is an “affiliate”,
such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the
distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or
other trading activities and that it will comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act (including, but not limited to delivery of a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities). 
 Upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer in accordance with this Section 2 with respect to each series of the Initial Securities, the
provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply solely with respect to Transfer Restricted Securities of such series that are Private Exchange Securities, as to which Section 2 is applicable and Exchange Securities of such series held by
Participating Broker-Dealers, and the Company shall have no further obligation to register any other Securities of such series pursuant hereto. 
 2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations of the staff of the Commission, the Company is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1
hereof, (ii) for any other reason a Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 910 days of the Issue Date, (iii) any Initial Purchaser shall notify the Company following consummation of the applicable Registered Exchange
Offer that the Initial Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) held by it are not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Securities in such Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) notifies the
Company within 30 days after the consummation of the applicable Registered Exchange Offer that it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in such Registered Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than an Exchanging
Dealer) that participates in such Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder may not resell the Exchange Securities acquired by it in such Registered Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and so notifies the Company within 30 days
after such Holder first becomes aware of such restrictions, the Company shall take the following actions: 
 (a) The Company
shall, at its cost, promptly file with the Commission under the Securities Act a registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a
“Registration Statement”) on an appropriate 

  

 4 

 
form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities of each series by the Holders thereof from time to time in
accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf Registration”); 
 (b) (A) in the cause of clause (i) above, the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to, no later than 870 days after the Issue Date (or if the 870th day is not a business day, the first business day
thereafter) (such 870th day, or the first business day thereafter, as the case may be, being an “Effectiveness Deadline”), cause to be
declared effective under the Securities Act the Shelf Registration Statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities of each series by the Holders thereof from time to time
in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and the Shelf Registration and (B) in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, use its commercially reasonable efforts to
cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the 90th day (or if the 90th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the date on which the Shelf Registration Statement is required to be filed; provided,
however, that no Holder (other than an Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement
applicable to such Holder. 
 (c) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
keep each Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for such longer period if extended
pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer restricted
securities (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor rule thereof). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite
period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law or is taken pursuant to
Section 3(j) hereof. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall
cause each Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement to the contrary, 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 with no more than
three such delays in filing or delays or suspension of effectiveness during any calendar year (each, a “Shelf Suspension Period”), if 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.

 3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by
Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Company shall (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission to the extent reasonably
practicable, a copy of the applicable Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein and, in the event that an Initial Purchaser (with respect to any portion of an unsold allotment
from the original offering) is participating in such Registered Exchange Offer or such Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such
comments as such Initial Purchaser reasonably may propose; (ii) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange

Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; (iii) if requested by an Initial Purchaser, include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus
forming a part of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement; (iv) include within the prospectus contained in the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” reasonably
acceptable to the Initial Purchasers, which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the
beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies have
been publicly disseminated by the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers based upon advice of counsel (which may be in-house counsel), represent the prevailing views of the staff
of the Commission; and (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include the names of the Holders, who propose to sell Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, as selling security holders. 
 (b) The Company shall give written notice to the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any Participating Broker-Dealer
from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the applicable Registered Exchange Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii) through (v) below shall be accompanied by an
instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 
 (i) when the applicable
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the applicable Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the applicable Registration Statement or the prospectus included
therein or for additional information; 
 (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; 
 (iv) of the
receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 

 

 6 

 (v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in the
applicable Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the applicable Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 
 (c) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time of any order suspending the effectiveness of each Registration Statement. 
 (d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of each Shelf Registration, without charge, if the
Holder so requests in writing, at least one copy of the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto
(including those, if any, incorporated by reference). 
 (e) The Company shall deliver to each Exchanging Dealer, upon its
request, and each Initial Purchaser, and to any other Holder who so requests, without charge, at least one copy of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and
schedules, and, if any Initial Purchaser or any such Holder requests, all exhibits thereto (including those incorporated by reference). 
 (f) The Company shall, during each Shelf Registration Period, deliver to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the applicable Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus
(including each preliminary prospectus) included in the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the
use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in
the applicable Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (g) The Company shall deliver to each Initial Purchaser, any Exchanging
Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following each Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the applicable Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial
Purchaser, if necessary, any Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the applicable Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange
Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 
 (h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities, pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company shall register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective
counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing
and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify
generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 
  

 7 

 (i) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the Securities to facilitate the
timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request a
reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 (j) Upon the occurrence
of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly prepare and file a
post-effective amendment to each Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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. If the Company
notifies the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite
changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the applicable Shelf Registration
Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above and the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to
and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j). 
 (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the Initial
Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, and provide the applicable trustee with printed certificates for the Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the
case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 
 (l) The Company will comply with all rules
and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as they are applicable to each Registered Exchange Offer or each Shelf Registration and will make generally available to its security holders (or otherwise provide in accordance with
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning
with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period. 
 (m) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture
Act”), in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint
a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. 
 (n) The Company may require each Holder of
Securities to be sold pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the
Shelf Registration Statement including requiring the Holder to properly complete and execute any selling security holder notices and questionnaires, and any amendments or supplements thereto, that it may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate, and
the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. 
  

 8 

 (o) The Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an
underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as Holders of 20% in principal amount of the Securities registered under the Shelf Registration (such Holders being “Significant Holders”) shall reasonably
request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration. 
 (p) In the case of any
underwritten offering pursuant to Shelf Registration, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by the Holders of the Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the applicable Shelf
Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and
(ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection
with the applicable Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act; provided, however, that the
foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated on behalf of the Initial Purchasers by you and on behalf of the other parties, by one counsel designated by and on behalf of such other parties as described in Section 4
hereof. 
 (q) In the case of any underwritten offering pursuant to Shelf Registration, the Company, if requested by any
Significant Holders of Securities covered thereby, shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion and updates thereof relating to the Securities in customary form addressed to such Holders and the Managing Underwriters (as defined below), if
any, thereof and dated, in the case of the initial opinion, the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement (it being agreed that the matters to be covered by such opinion shall include, without limitation, the due incorporation and good
standing of the Company and its subsidiaries; the qualification of the Company and its subsidiaries to transact business as foreign corporations; the due authorization, execution and delivery of the relevant agreement of the type referred to in
Section 3(o) hereof; the due authorization, execution, authentication and issuance, and the validity and enforceability, of the applicable Securities; the absence of material legal or governmental proceedings involving the Company and its
subsidiaries; the absence of governmental approvals required to be obtained in connection with the applicable Shelf Registration Statement, the offering and sale of the applicable Securities, or any agreement of the type referred to in
Section 3(o) hereof; the compliance as to form of such Shelf Registration Statement and any documents incorporated by reference therein and of the Indenture with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act, respectively;
and, as of the date of the opinion and as of the effective date of the applicable Shelf Registration Statement or most recent post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, the absence from such Shelf Registration Statement and the prospectus
included therein, as then amended or supplemented, and from any documents incorporated by reference therein of an untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any such documents, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time that such documents were filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act); (ii) its officers to execute and
deliver all customary documents and certificates and updates thereof requested by any underwriters of the applicable Securities and (iii) its independent public accountants and the independent public accountants with respect to any other entity
for which financial information is provided in the Shelf Registration Statement to provide to the selling Holders of the applicable Securities and any underwriter therefor a comfort letter in customary form and covering matters of the type
customarily covered in 

  

 9 

 
comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by
Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72. 
 (r) In the case of the Registered Exchange Offer, if requested by any Initial
Purchaser or any known Participating Broker-Dealer, the Company shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer a signed opinion in the form set forth in Sections 6(f) and 6(g) of the
Purchase Agreement with such changes as are customary in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement and (ii) its independent public accountants to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer a comfort
letter, in customary form, meeting the requirements as to the substance thereof as set forth in Sections 6(a) and (j) of the Purchase Agreement, with appropriate date changes. 
 (s) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the
Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall mark, or cause to be marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that
such Initial Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 
 (t) The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) if the Initial Securities have been rated prior to the initial
sale of such Initial Securities, confirm such ratings will apply to the Securities covered by a Registration Statement, or (b) if the Initial Securities were not previously rated, cause the Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be
rated with the appropriate rating agencies, if so requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities covered by such Registration Statement, or by the Managing Underwriters, if any. 
 (u) In the event that any broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an
underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the “Rules”) of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”)) thereof,
whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company will assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of such Rules, including,
without limitation, by (i) if such Rules, including Rule 2720, shall so require, engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in Rule 2720) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating to such
Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the
yield of such Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters provided in Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may
be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the Rules. 
 (v) The Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 
 4. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 4 hereof (including the reasonable fees and
expenses, if any, of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, incurred in connection with the Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration is
filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the reasonable fees and 

  

 10 

 
disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel
for the Holders of the Initial Securities in connection therewith. 
 5. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any
Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof
(including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect
thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to
such Holder, and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder, specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus
relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was required to be delivered by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any
such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person, a copy
of the final prospectus if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may
otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as
provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders. 
 (b) Each Holder of the
Securities, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out
of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Shelf Registration,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the 

  

 11 

 
limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have
to the Company or any of its controlling persons. 
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice
of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has
been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified
party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the
consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. In any such proceeding, any
indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed
to the contrary; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; (iii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal
defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any
proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as
they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by CSFB and any such separate firm for the Company, and any
control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims
that are the subject matter of such action, 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 any indemnified party. 
 (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections
(a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection
(a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Securities,
pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in

  

 12 

 
clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties 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 such Holder or such other
indemnified party 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 by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or
claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received
by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have 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. For purposes of
this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. 
 (e) The
agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation
made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 
 6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. (a) Additional interest
(the “Additional Interest”) with respect to the Initial Securities of a given series shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur in respect of such series (each such event in clauses (i) through
(iii) below a “Registration Default”): 
 (i) if the Company fails to file an Exchange Offer
Registration Statement with the Commission on or prior to the second anniversary after the Issue Date; 
 (ii) if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not declared effective by the
Commission on or prior to the 870th day (or if the 870th day
is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the Issue Date or, if obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to paragraph 2(b)(A) of Section 2, a Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the
Commission on or prior to the 910th day after the Issue Date; 
 (iii) the Registered Exchange Offer has not been consummated on or prior to the
40th day (or if the 40th day is not a business day, the first
business day thereafter) after the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective; 
 (iv) if obligated to file the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to subsection
(b)(B) of Section 2, the Company fails to file the Shelf Registration Statement with the Commission on or prior to the 60th day (or if the 60th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) (the “Shelf Filing Date”) after the date on which the obligation to file a
Shelf Registration Statement arises; 
 (v) if obligated
to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to paragraph 2(b)(B) of Section 2, the Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective on or prior to the 90th day (or if the 90th day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) after the Shelf Filing Date; or 

  

 13 

 (vi) any Registration Statement required by this agreement has been declared effective
and (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective; or (B) such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods
specified herein because either (1) any event occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part of such Registration Statement would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to
make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or (2) it shall be necessary to amend such Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus, to comply with the Securities Act
or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder. 
 Except during any Shelf Suspension Period referred to in Section 2, Additional Interest shall
accrue on the Initial Securities of the relevant series over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities of that series from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur, at a rate of 0.25% per
annum for the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default, and such rate will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults in
respect of that series have been cured, up to a maximum Additional Interest rate of 1.0% per annum. 
 (b) A Registration Default
referred to in Section 6(a)(vi) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of
(x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared
effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of
clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events. Upon the cure of all Registration Defaults in respect of a given series of
Securities, additional interest shall cease to accrue in respect of that series of Initial Securities. 
 (c) Any amounts of Additional
Interest due pursuant to Section 6(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional
Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities of the relevant series, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis
of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. 
 (d) “Transfer Restricted
Securities” means each Security of a given series until (i) the date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security of the same series in
the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to such series, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to such series of an Initial Security for an Exchange Security, the date on which such
Exchange Security is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement with respect to such series, (iii) the date on
which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the date on which such Initial Securities is distributed to the public pursuant to
Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. 
  

 14 

 (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 6, the Company shall not be obligated to
pay Additional Interest provided in Section 6(a)(ii) during a Shelf Suspension Period permitted by Section 2 hereof. 
 7. Rules
144 and 144A. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file
such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that it will
take such further action as any Holder of Initial Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of
the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). The Company will provide a copy of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of Initial Securities identified to the Company by the Initial
Purchasers upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Initial Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this
Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 
 8. Underwritten
Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering
(“Managing Underwriters”) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering. 
 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted
Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 9.
Miscellaneous. (a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, except by the
Company and the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consents. 
 (b) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, first-class

property, it hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 ANNEX A 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The
Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended
or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any
such resale. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

 ANNEX B 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities, where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or
other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

 ANNEX C 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that
receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from
time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading
activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
                    , 200[•], all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus.(1) 
 The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by
broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the
writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made
directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange
Securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the
Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by
acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
 For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to
this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other
than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
