 2.      Registration Under the Securities Act. 

(a)     To the extent not prohibited by any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Staff of the
SEC, the Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause to be filed an Exchange Offer Registration Statement covering an offer to the Holders to exchange all the Registrable Securities for Exchange
Securities and (ii) subject to Section 2(b) below, have such Registration Statement remain effective until 90 days after the closing of the Exchange Offer. The Company and the Guarantors shall commence the Exchange Offer promptly after the

The Company and the Guarantors shall commence the Exchange Offer by mailing the related Prospectus, appropriate letters of transmittal
and other accompanying documents to each Holder stating, in addition to such other disclosures as are required by applicable law, 

(i)       that the Exchange Offer is being made pursuant to this Agreement and that
all Registrable Securities validly tendered and not properly withdrawn will be accepted for exchange; 

(ii)      the dates of acceptance for exchange (which shall be a period of at least 20
Business Days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Exchange Dates”);

any Holder electing to have a Registrable Security exchanged pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be required to surrender such Registrable Security, together with the appropriate letters of transmittal, to the institution and at the address (located

 -4- 

 (v)     that any Holder will be entitled to
withdraw its election, not later than the close of business on the last Exchange Date, by sending to the institution and at the address (located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York) specified in the notice, a telegram, telex, facsimile
transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Registrable Securities delivered for exchange and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Securities exchanged. 

As a condition to participating in the Exchange Offer, a Holder will be required to represent to the Company and the Guarantors that
(i) any Exchange Securities to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) at the time of commencement of the Exchange Offer it has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the
distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Securities in violation of the Securities Act, (iii) it is not an “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under Securities Act) of the Company or any
Guarantor, (iv) if such Holder is a 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 Securities that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), then such Holder will deliver a Prospectus in
connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. 
 As soon as practicable after the last Exchange Date, the Company and
the Guarantors shall 
 (i)      accept for exchange Registrable Securities or
portions thereof validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer; and 

(ii)     deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable
Securities or portions thereof so accepted for exchange by the Company and issue, and cause the Trustee to promptly authenticate and deliver to each Holder, Exchange Securities equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the Registrable
Securities surrendered by such Holder provided that, except as may be otherwise required by the Indenture, in the case of any Registrable Securities held in global form by a depositary, authentication and delivery to such depositary of one or more
Exchange Securities in global form in an equivalent principal amount thereto for the account of such Holders in accordance with the Indenture shall satisfy such authentication and delivery requirement. 

The Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Exchange Offer as provided above and
shall comply with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the Exchange Offer. Except as described above, the Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any
conditions, other than (i) that the Exchange Offer does not violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Staff of the SEC and (ii) no action or proceeding shall have been instituted or threatened in any court or by any
governmental agency with respect to the Exchange Offer. 
 (b)     In the event that (i) the
Company and the Guarantors determine that the Exchange Offer Registration provided for in Section 2(a) above is not available or may not be 

 

 -5- 

 
completed as soon as practicable after the last Exchange Date because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretation of the Staff of the SEC, (ii) the Exchange Offer is not
for any other reason completed by the 300th day after the Closing Date, or (iii) if any Initial Purchaser holds any Securities acquired by it that have, or that are reasonably likely to be determined to have, the status of an unsold allotment
in an initial distribution, and any such Initial Purchaser so requests in writing on or prior to the 60th day after the consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Company and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed
as soon as practicable after such determination, date or request, as the case may be, a Shelf Registration Statement providing for the sale of all the Registrable Securities by the Holders (or, in the case of clause (iii), any requesting Initial
Purchaser) thereof and to have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC. 
 In the event that the
Company and the Guarantors are required to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Company and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file and have declared effective by
the SEC both an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) with respect to all Registrable Securities and a Shelf Registration Statement (which may be a combined Registration Statement with the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement) with respect to offers and sales of Registrable Securities held by the Initial Purchasers after completion of the Exchange Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors may delay filing an Exchange Offer
Registration Statement or a Shelf Registration Statement, or any amendment thereto, and may withhold efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement, and any such amendment thereto, to become or remain
effective for a period of up to 90 days, if (i) the Company determines in good faith that such Shelf Registration Statement, and any such amendment thereto, might interfere with or affect the negotiation or completion of any transaction that is
being contemplated by the Company (whether or not a final decision has been made to undertake such transaction) at the time the right to delay is exercised or (ii) such Shelf Registration Statement, and any such amendment thereto, would
otherwise require premature disclosure of non-public information that, in the Company’s judgment, exercised reasonably and in good faith, would have a material adverse effect on or otherwise be detrimental to the Company; provided,
however, the Company may only exercise such right of delay or withholding of efforts other than for purposes of avoiding its obligations under this Agreement; provided further however, that the Company may not exercise
such right of delay or withholding of efforts more frequently than two times in any 12-month period and the aggregate period of any such delays or withholdings shall not exceed 90 days in any such 12-month period. 

The Company and the Guarantors agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously
effective for up to one year from the Closing Date or such earlier time when no Registrable Securities remain or all the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement
(the “Shelf Effectiveness Period”). Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company and the Guarantors further agree to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus if required by the rules,
regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company and the Guarantors for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder for shelf registration or if
reasonably requested by a Holder of Registrable Securities with respect to information relating to such Holder, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such 

 

 -6- 

 
amendment to become effective and such Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus to become usable as soon as thereafter practicable. The Company and the Guarantors agree to furnish to the
Holders of Registrable Securities covered by any such Shelf Registration Statement copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC. 

(c)     The Company and the Guarantors shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration
pursuant to Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d)     An Exchange Offer
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC. 

In the event that (i) either the Exchange Offer is not completed or a Shelf Registration Statement required under clause
(i) or (ii) of the first sentence of Section (2)(b) hereof is not declared effective on or prior to the 300th day after the Closing Date (the “Target Registration Date”) or (ii) a Shelf Registration Statement required
under clause (iii) of the first sentence of Section 2(b) hereof is not declared effective on or prior to the 180th day following the request therefor in accordance with this Agreement (also a “Target Registration Date”), the
interest rate on the Registrable Securities will be increased by (i) 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period immediately following the applicable Target Registration Date and (v) an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to
each subsequent 90-day period, in each case until the Exchange Offer is completed or the Shelf Registration Statement, if required hereby, is declared effective by the SEC; provided however, that in no event shall the aggregate amount
of additional interest accruing under this paragraph exceed in the aggregate 1.00% per annum. 
 If the Shelf Registration
Statement has been declared effective and thereafter either ceases to be effective or the Prospectus contained therein ceases to be usable at any time during the Shelf Effectiveness Period, and such failure to remain effective or usable exists for
more than 90 days (whether or not consecutive) in any 12-month period, then the interest rate on the Registrable Securities will be increased by 1.00% per annum commencing on the 91st day in such 12-month period and ending on such date that the
Shelf Registration Statement has again been declared effective or the Prospectus again becomes usable. 
 In no event shall the
Company or Guarantors be obligated to pay additional interest under more than one provisions of this Section 2(d) at any one time. Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement (in the
case of clauses (i) and (ii) of the second paragraph of this Section 2(d), as applicable) or the Shelf Registration Statement which had ceased to remain effective (in the case of the penultimate paragraph of this Section 2(d)),
additional interest on the Securities as a result of such provisions (or the relevant subclause thereof), as the case may be, shall cease to accrue. 

(e)     Without limiting the remedies available to the Initial Purchasers and the Holders, the Company and the
Guarantors acknowledge that any failure by the Company or the Guarantors to comply with their obligations under Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof may 

 

 -7- 

 
result in material irreparable injury to the Initial Purchasers or the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries
precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or any Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under Section 2(a) and
Section 2(b) hereof. 
 (f)     No Holder of Registrable Securities may include any of its
Registrable Securities in any Shelf Registration if such Holder shall have failed to furnish to the Company the information with respect to such Holder and the proposed disposition specified in Items 507 and 508 (as applicable) of Regulation S-K
under the Securities Act and any other applicable rules, regulations or policies of the SEC for use in connection with any Shelf Registration or Prospectus included therein. No Holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to additional
interest pursuant to Section 2(b) if such Holder shall have failed to provide all such information. Each selling Holder as to which a Shelf Registration is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company additional information to be
disclosed so that the information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein
not misleading. 
 3.      Registration Procedures. In connection with, and subject to the
provisions of, Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof, the Company and the Guarantors shall as expeditiously as possible: 

(a)     prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement on the appropriate form under the
Securities Act, which form (x) shall be selected by the Company and the Guarantors, (y) shall, in the case of a Shelf Registration, be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities to be included therein by the selling Holders
thereof and (z) shall comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the applicable form and include all financial statements required by the SEC to be filed therewith; and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective for the applicable period in accordance with Section 2 hereof; 

(b)     prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each
Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the applicable period in accordance with Section 2 hereof and cause each Prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement and, as so
supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; 
 (c)     in
the case of a Shelf Registration, furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities covered thereby, to counsel for the Initial Purchasers, to counsel for such Holders and to each Underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if
any, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus, including each preliminary Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto, as may be reasonably requested in order to facilitate the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities
covered thereunder; and the Company and the Guarantors consent to the use of such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto in accordance with applicable law by each of the selling Holders of Registrable Securities and any such Underwriters
in connection with

(d)     use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities
under all applicable state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States of America as any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement shall reasonably request in writing by the time the applicable
Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC; cooperate with the Holders in connection with any filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.; and do any and all other acts and things that may be
reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to complete the disposition in each such jurisdiction of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided that neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required to
(i) qualify as a foreign corporation or other entity or as a dealer in securities in any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify, (ii) file any general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction
or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not so subject; 

(e)     in the case of a Shelf Registration, notify each Holder of Registrable Securities
covered thereby, counsel for such Holders and counsel for the Initial Purchasers promptly and, if requested by any such Holder or counsel, confirm such advice in writing (i) when a Registration Statement has become effective and when any
post-effective amendment thereto has been filed and becomes effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC or any state securities authority for amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement and Prospectus or for additional information
after the Registration Statement has become effective, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any state securities authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that
purpose, (iv) if, between the effective date of a Registration Statement and the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities covered thereby, the Company or any Guarantor receives any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) of the happening of any event during the period a Shelf Registration Statement is effective that makes any
statement made in such Registration Statement or the related Prospectus untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement or Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading and
of the delay in filing a Shelf Registration Statement, or any amendment thereto, or of the withholding of efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement, or any such amendment thereto, to become effective, pursuant to the third sentence of
Section 2(b) and (vi) of any determination by the Company or any Guarantor that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate; provided that, in the case of clause (iv), (v) or (vi), with respect
to any event, development or transaction that would permit the Company to exercise its rights of delay or withholding of efforts under the third sentence of Section 2(b), the Company shall provide written notice that, in its good faith
judgment, such an event, development or transaction has occurred or is pending and that it is exercising its rights of delay or withholding of efforts pursuant to the third sentence of Section 2(b) of this Agreement; provided
further that the Company shall not be required to describe such event, development or

 (h)    in the case of a Shelf Registration, cooperate with the selling Holders of
Registrable Securities covered thereby to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends and enable such Registrable Securities to be issued in
such denominations and registered in such names (consistent with the provisions of the Indenture) as the selling Holders may reasonably request at least one Business Day prior to the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities; 

(i)     subject to the third sentence of Section 2(b), in the case of a Shelf Registration,
upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(e)(v) hereof, use their commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement or the related Prospectus
or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities, such Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and the Company and the Guarantors shall notify the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf
Registration to suspend use of the Prospectus as promptly as practicable after the occurrence of such an event, and such Holders hereby agree to suspend use of the Prospectus until the Company and the Guarantors have amended or supplemented the
Prospectus to correct such misstatement or omission and expressly agree to maintain the information contained in such notice confidential (except that such information may be disclosed to their counsel) until it has been publicly disclosed by the
Company; provided that, with respect to any event, development or transaction that would permit the Company and the Guarantors to exercise their rights of delay or withholding of efforts under the third sentence of Section 2(b), such
notice shall state that, in the Company’s good faith judgment, such an event, development or transaction has occurred or is pending and that it is exercising its rights of delay or withholding of efforts pursuant to the third sentence of

 -10- 

 
Statement or a Prospectus after initial filing of a Registration Statement, provide copies of such document to the Initial Purchasers and their counsel (and, in the case of a Shelf Registration
Statement, to the Holders of Registrable Securities covered thereby and their counsel) and make such of the representatives of the Company and the Guarantors as shall be reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or their counsel (and, in the
case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holders of such Registrable Securities or their counsel) available for discussion of such document; and the Company and the Guarantors shall not, at any time after initial filing of a Registration
Statement, file any Prospectus, any amendment of or supplement to a Registration Statement or a Prospectus, or any document that is to be incorporated by reference into a Registration Statement or a Prospectus, of which the Initial Purchasers and
their counsel (and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holders of Registrable Securities covered thereby and their counsel) shall not have previously been advised and furnished a copy or to which the Initial Purchasers or their
counsel (and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, such Holders or their counsel) shall reasonably object on a timely basis, except for any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or related Prospectus or supplement thereto (a copy of
which has been previously furnished as provided in the preceding sentence) which counsel to the Company has advised the Company in writing (with a copy to the objecting Initial Purchasers or Holders, as the case may be) is required to be filed in
order to comply with applicable law; 
 (k)     obtain a CUSIP number for all Exchange

SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; 
 (m)    in the case of
a Shelf Registration, make available for inspection by a representative of the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered thereby (an “Inspector”), any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Shelf Registration

officers, directors and employees of the Company and the Guarantors to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Inspector, Underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with a Shelf Registration Statement; provided that each such
representative, Underwriter, attorney or accountant shall agree in writing that it will keep such information confidential and that it will not disclose any of the information that the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and

(n)     if reasonably requested by any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by a
Registration Statement, promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information with respect to such Holder as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein and make all required filings of such
Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as the Company has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such filing; and 

(o)     in the case of a Shelf Registration, enter into such customary agreements and take all
such other actions in connection therewith (including those requested by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities being sold) in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities
including, but not limited to, an Underwritten Offering and in such connection, (i) to the extent possible, make such representations and warranties to the Holders and any Underwriters of such Registrable Securities with respect to the business
of the Company and its subsidiaries, the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference, if any, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to
underwriters in underwritten offerings and confirm the same if and when requested, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors (which counsel and opinions, in form, scope and
substance, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Holders and such Underwriters and their respective counsel) addressed to each selling Holder and Underwriter of Registrable Securities, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested
in underwritten offerings, (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain “comfort” letters from the independent certified public accountants of the Company and the Guarantors (and, if necessary, any other certified public
accountant of any subsidiary of the Company or any Guarantor, or of any business acquired by the Company or any Guarantor for which financial statements and financial data are or are required to be included in the Registration Statement) addressed
to each selling Holder and Underwriter of Registrable Securities, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings and
(iv) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities being sold thereunder or the Underwriters, and which are customarily delivered in
underwritten offerings, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantors made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in an
underwriting agreement. 
  

 -12- 

 In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees
that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company and the Guarantors of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e)(iii) or 3(e)(v) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(i) hereof and, if so directed by the Company and the Guarantors, such Holder will deliver to
the Company and the Guarantors all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that is current at the time of receipt of such notice.

 If the Company and the Guarantors shall give any such notice to suspend the disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant
to a Registration Statement, the Company and the Guarantors shall extend the period during which the Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days during the period from and including the date
of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Holders shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions. 

The Holders of Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement who desire to do so may sell such Registrable Securities
in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers (the “Underwriters”) that will administer the offering will be selected by the Majority Holders of the
Registrable Securities included in such offering. 
 4.     Participation of Broker-Dealers in
Exchange Offer. 
 (a)    The Staff of the SEC has taken the position that any broker-dealer that
receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities that were acquired by a Participating Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must
deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. 

The Company and the Guarantors understand that it is the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying
the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers to satisfy their prospectus delivery obligation under the Securities Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their
own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Securities Act. 

(b)    In light of the above, and notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, the Company and the
Guarantors agree to amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as would otherwise be contemplated by Section 3(i), for the period required by the Securities Act (as such period may be extended
pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement), if reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or by one or more Participating Broker-Dealers (including any Person with similar delivery prospectus delivery
requirements), in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition 
  

 -13- 

 
of any Exchange Securities by Participating Broker-Dealers (or any Person with similar delivery requirements) consistent with the positions of the Staff recited in Section 4(a) above. The
Company and the Guarantors further agree that Participating Broker-Dealers (and any Person with similar delivery requirements) shall be authorized to deliver such Prospectus during such period in connection with the resales contemplated by this
Section 4. 
 (c)    The Initial Purchasers shall have no liability to the Company, any Guarantor or
any Holder with respect to any request that they may make pursuant to Section 4(b) above. 

5.     Indemnification and Contribution. 

(a)    The Company and each Guarantor, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial
Purchaser and each Holder, their respective affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser or any Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange
Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and
expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any Prospectus or any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except (i) insofar as such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Initial Purchaser or any Holder furnished to the
Company in writing by any Initial Purchaser or any selling Holder expressly for use therein or (ii) that with respect to any such untrue statement in or omission from or alleged untrue statement in or omission from any preliminary Prospectus,
the indemnity provided in this Section 5(a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability received Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities to the extent that such
loss, claim, damage or liability results from the fact that (A) such Holder was required under the Securities Act to deliver a copy of the final Prospectus to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable
Securities or Exchange Securities to such person, (B) a copy of the final Prospectus was not so sent or given to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Registrable Securities or Exchange Securities to such
person and (C) such untrue statement in or omission from or alleged untrue statement in or omission from the preliminary Prospectus was corrected in the final Prospectus unless, in either case, such failure to deliver the final Prospectus was a
result of non-compliance by the Company or any of the Guarantors with Section 2(b) or 3 hereof. In connection with any Underwritten Offering permitted by Section 3, the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will also indemnify
the Underwriters, if any, selling brokers, dealers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their respective affiliates and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement. 

(b)    Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold

  

 -14- 

 
harmless the Company, the Guarantors, the Initial Purchasers and the other selling Holders, their respective affiliates, the directors of the Company and the Guarantors, each officer of the
Company and the Guarantors who signed the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company, the Guarantors, any Initial Purchaser and any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission
or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement or any Prospectus.

 (c)    If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim
or demand shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such Person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the Person
against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under paragraph
(a) and (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
Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under paragraphs (a) and (b) above. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have
notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5
that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its
own counsel, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the
Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person 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 Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person 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 Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in
the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any
such separate firm (x) for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control Persons of such Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., (y) for any other Holders, their
affiliates, directors and officers and any control Persons of such Holders shall be designated in writing by the Majority Holders and (z) in all other cases shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and
against 
  

 -15- 

 
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment to the extent provided herein and therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have
requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its
written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such
request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could
have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

 (d)    If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to
an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors from the
offering of the Securities and the Exchange Securities, on the one hand, and by the Holders from receiving Securities or Exchange Securities registered under the Securities Act, on the other hand, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause
(i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Holders
on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand
and the Holders on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
the Company and the Guarantors or by the Holders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

(e)    The Company, the Guarantors and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations
set forth above, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, in no event shall a Holder be required to contribute any
amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities or Exchange Securities sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay

  

 -16- 

 
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. 

(f)     The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or
remedies that may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. 
 (g)    The
indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial
Purchasers or any Holder, their respective affiliates or any Person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any Holder, or by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantors, their respective affiliates or the officers or directors of or any Person
controlling the Company or the Guarantors, (iii) acceptance of any of the Exchange Securities and (iv) any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement. 

6.     General. 

(a)    No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, represent, warrant
and agree that (i) the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of any other outstanding securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or any
Guarantor under any other agreement and (ii) neither the Company nor any Guarantor has entered into, or on or after the date of this Agreement will enter into, any agreement that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of
Registrable Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. 

(b)    Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence,
may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company and the Guarantors have obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Registrable Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent; provided that no amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent to any departure from the provisions
of Section 5 hereof shall be effective as against any Holder of Registrable Securities unless consented to in writing by such Holder. Any amendments, modifications, supplements, waivers or consents pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall be by
a writing executed by each of the parties hereto. 
 (c)    Notices. All notices and other
communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, registered first-class mail, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery (i) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such
Holder to the Company by means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c), which address initially is, with respect to the Initial Purchasers, the address set forth in the Purchase Agreement; (ii) if to the
Company and the Guarantors, initially at the Company’s address set forth in the Purchase Agreement and thereafter at such other address, notice of 

 

 -17- 

 
which is given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c); and (iii) to such other persons at their respective addresses as provided in the Purchase Agreement and thereafter
at such other address, notice of which is given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c). All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five
Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on the next Business Day if timely delivered to an air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery. Copies of all such notices,
demands or other communications shall be concurrently delivered by the Person giving the same to the Trustee, at the address specified in the Indenture. 

(d)    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
successors, assigns and transferees of each of the parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or
other disposition of Registrable Securities in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such
Registrable Securities shall be held subject to all the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable Securities such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and such Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof. The Initial Purchasers (in their capacity as Initial Purchasers) shall have no liability or obligation to the Company or the Guarantors with respect to
any failure by a Holder to comply with, or any breach by any Holder of, any of the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement. 

(e)    Purchases and Sales of Securities. The Company and the Guarantors shall not, and shall use their
reasonable best efforts to cause their affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) not to, purchase and then resell or otherwise transfer any Registrable Securities. 

(f)     Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Holder shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made
hereunder between the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect
its rights or the rights of other Holders hereunder. 
 (g)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

(h)    Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are not a part of this
Agreement and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 
 (i)     Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
  

 -18- 

 (j)      Miscellaneous. This Agreement contains the
entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Agreement is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable or against public policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, void or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible
to that of the invalid, void or unenforceable provisions.
