(c)         
Authorization, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this First Amendment and each other
Loan Document to which it is or will be a party, (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action, (ii) do not and will not

Lien (other than pursuant to any Loan Document) upon or with respect to any of its properties, and (iv) do not and will not result
in any default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization
or approval applicable to its operations or any of its properties, except, in the case of clauses (ii)(B), (ii)(C) and (iv), to
the extent where such contravention, default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(d)

this First Amendment, (b) confirms and agrees that the Financing Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party
is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, except that on and
after the First Amendment Effective Date, all references in the Financing Agreement or any such other Loan Document to "the
Financing Agreement", the "Agreement", "thereto", "thereof", "thereunder" or words
of like import referring to the Financing Agreement shall mean the Financing Agreement as amended by this First Amendment, and
(c) confirms and agrees that, to the extent that the Financing Agreement or any such other Loan Document purports to assign

benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, a security interest in or Lien on any Collateral as security for the Obligations of the
Loan Parties from time to time existing in respect of the Financing Agreement (as amended hereby) and the other Loan Documents,

the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Financing Agreement (as amended hereby) or any other Loan Document to which they
are a party, all of which obligations shall remain in full force and effect. Except as expressly provided herein, the execution,
delivery and effectiveness of this First Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Agent or
any Lender under the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Financing Agreement
or any other Loan Document.

 

    -4-

     

    

 

7. No
Novation. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the Obligations outstanding under the
Financing Agreement or instruments securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby.

 

8. No
Representations by Agents or Lenders. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges that it has not relied on any representation, written
or oral, express or implied, by any Agent or any Lender, other than those expressly contained herein, in entering into this First
Amendment.

 

9. Release.
Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (a) neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has any claim or cause of action
against any Agent or any Lender (or any of the directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or consultants of any of the foregoing)
and (b) the Agents and the Lenders have heretofore properly performed and satisfied in a timely manner all of their obligations
to the Loan Parties, and all of their Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agents and the Lenders wish
(and the Loan Parties agree) to eliminate any possibility that any past conditions, acts, omissions, events or circumstances would
impair or otherwise adversely affect any of their rights, interests, security and/or remedies. Accordingly, for and in consideration
of the agreements contained in this First Amendment and other good and valuable consideration, each Loan Party (for itself and
its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of each of the foregoing) (collectively,
the "Releasors") does hereby fully, finally, unconditionally and irrevocably release, waive and forever discharge
the Agents and the Lenders, together with their respective Affiliates and Related Funds, and each of the directors, officers, employees,
agents, attorneys and consultants of each of the foregoing (collectively, the "Released Parties"), from any and
all debts, claims, allegations, obligations, damages, costs, attorneys' fees, suits, demands, liabilities, actions, proceedings
and causes of action, in each case, whether known or unknown, contingent or fixed, direct or indirect, and of whatever nature or
description, and whether in law or in equity, under contract, tort, statute or otherwise, which any Releasor has heretofore had
or now or hereafter can, shall or may have against any Released Party by reason of any act, omission or thing whatsoever done or
omitted to be done, in each case, on or prior to the First Amendment Effective Date directly arising out of, connected with or
related to this First Amendment, the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any act, event or transaction related or
attendant thereto, or the agreements of any Agent or any Lender contained therein, or the possession, use, operation or control
of any of the assets of any Loan Party, or the making of any Loans or other advances, or the management of such Loans or other
advances or the Collateral. Each Loan Party represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of any claim by any Releasor against
any Released Party or of any facts or acts or omissions of any Released Party which on the date hereof would be the basis of a
claim by any Releasor against any Released Party which would not be released hereby.

 

10.        
Further Assurances. The Loan Parties shall execute any and all further documents, agreements and instruments,
and take all further actions, as may be required under Applicable Law or as any Agent may reasonably request, in order to effect
the purposes of this First Amendment.

 

    -5-

     

    

 

11.        
Miscellaneous.

 

(a)         
This First Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery
of an executed counterpart of this First Amendment by facsimile or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an
original executed counterpart of this First Amendment.

 

(b)         
Section and paragraph headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of
this First Amendment for any other purpose.

 

(c)         
This First Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 

(d)         
Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that this First Amendment constitutes a "Loan Document" under the
Financing Agreement. Accordingly, it shall be an immediate Event of Default under the Financing Agreement if (i) any representation
or warranty made by any Loan Party under or in connection with this First Amendment shall have been incorrect in any material respect
(or in any respect if such representation or warranty is qualified or modified as to materiality or "Material Adverse Effect"
in the text thereof) when made or deemed made, or (ii) any Loan Party shall fail to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement
contained in this First Amendment.

 

(e)         
Any provision of this First Amendment that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting
the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

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

in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

 

(e)               
The Company may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to make, give or take any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, or to
vote on or consent to any action authorized or permitted to be taken by Holders; provided that the Company may not set
a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration,
request or direction referred to in clause (f) below. Unless otherwise specified, if not set by the Company prior to the first
solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote,
any such record date shall be the later of 30 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or vote or the date of the
most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee prior to such solicitation or vote. If any record date is set pursuant to
this clause (e), the Holders on such record date, and only such Holders, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action (including revocation of any action), whether or not
such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made,
given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes, or each affected
Holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at
its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to
be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 14.02.

 

(f)

to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration
Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes or each affected Holder, as applicable, on such record date. Promptly
after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such
record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company and to each Holder in
the manner set forth in Section 14.02.

 

(g)               
Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do
so with regard to 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

 

    32

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 a Depositary that is the Holder of a Global Note,
may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders, and a Depositary that is the
Holder of a Global Note may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Note through
such Depositary’s standing instructions and customary practices.

 

(i)                
The Company may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons who are beneficial owners of interests in
any Global Note held by a Depositary entitled under the procedures of such Depositary, if any, to make, give or take, by a proxy
or proxies duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided
in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders; provided that if such a record date is fixed, only the beneficial
owners of interests in such Global Note on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies shall be entitled to make,
give or take such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such beneficial
owners remain beneficial owners of interests in such Global Note after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action shall be effective hereunder unless made, given or taken on or prior to the
applicable Expiration Date.

 

(j)                
With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.05, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate
any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later
day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the
other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder in the manner set forth in Section 14.02, on or prior to both the existing and
the new Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section
1.05, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 90th day after such record
date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this clause

Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment.
While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Company
at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, a Paying
Agent shall have no further liability for the money. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and
hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization
proceedings relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

 

To the extent
that the Paying Agent receives any amounts pursuant to this Section 2.04 and such amounts are remitted to the Holders, the Trustee
and the Paying Agent shall have no further obligations with respect thereto. Each Holder of a Note or a beneficial interest therein
by its acceptance thereof agrees that if any amounts received by it are determined to be in contravention of the provisions of
an Intercreditor Agreement it shall hold such funds and pay them to the Security and Intercreditor Agent as described in the Intercreditor
Agreements.

 

Section
2.05           Holder
Lists.

 

The Trustee
shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses
of all Holders in the Note Register. If the Trustee is

 

    35

     

    

not the Registrar,
the Company shall furnish to the Trustee at least two Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times
as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names
and addresses of the Holders.

 

Section
2.06           Transfer

(a)               
The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration
of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A.

 

(b)               
To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global
Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar’s
request.

 

(c)               
No service charge shall be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange (other than pursuant to
Section 2.07), but the Holders shall be required to pay any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection
therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections
2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.15, 4.16 and 9.05 of this Indenture).

 

(d)               
All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive
Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture,
as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

 

(e)               
None of the Company, the Transfer Agent and the Registrar shall be required (1) to issue, to register the transfer of or
to exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for
redemption under Section 3.02 and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (2) to register the transfer of or
to exchange any Note so selected for redemption, or tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in connection with a Change of
Control Offer or an Asset Sale Offer, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of any Note being redeemed
or repurchased in part or (3) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note between a Record Date and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date.

 

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

 

(g)               
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to ‎Section
4.02, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees,
one or more replacement Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

 

(h)               
At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of
a like aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Registrar or
such other office specified by the Company. Whenever any Global Notes or Definitive Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the replacement Global Notes and Definitive Notes which
the Holder making the exchange is entitled to in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 and Appendix A.

 

    36

     

    

(i)                
All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section
2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by mail or by facsimile or electronic transmission (provided
that such electronic transmission shall be in the form of a pdf file of a document executed by the required Person).

 

(j)                
All transfers and exchanges of any Note shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Appendix A. The Trustee and the
Registrar shall be entitled to receive such evidence as may be reasonably requested by it to establish the identity and/or signatures
of any transferee or transferor.

 

(k)               
The Company is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption.

 

Section
2.07           Replacement
Notes.

 

If a mutilated
Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Registrar or if a Holder claims that its Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken and the Trustee and the Registrar receive evidence to its satisfaction of the ownership and loss, destruction or theft of
such Note, the Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate a replacement
Note if the Trustee’s requirements are otherwise met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must
be provided by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee,
any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge
the Holder for the expenses of the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar in replacing a Note. Every replacement Note is a contractual
obligation of the Company and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all
other Notes duly issued hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07, in case any mutilated,
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

 

Section
2.08           Outstanding
Notes.

 

(a)               
The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee or any authenticating agent except for
those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the
Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth
in Section 2.09, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note; provided
that Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section
3.07(b).

 

(b)               
If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory
to it that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser, as such term is defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial
Code in effect in the State of New York.

 

(c)               
If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under ‎Section 4.01, it ceases to be outstanding and
interest on it ceases to accrue from and after the date of such payment.

 

(d)               
If the Trustee or a Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on the maturity
date, any redemption date or any date of purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, money sufficient to pay Notes payable or to
be redeemed or purchased on that date and such Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date
pursuant to Article 12, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to
accrue interest.

 

    37

     

    

Section
2.09           Treasury
Notes.

 

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

 

 Section 2.10           Temporary Notes.

 

Until definitive
Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate
temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company
considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the
Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. Holders and beneficial
holders, as the case may be, of temporary Notes shall be entitled to all of the benefits accorded to Holders, or beneficial holders,
respectively, of Notes under this Indenture.

 

Section
2.11           Cancellation.

 

The Company
at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any
Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee,
the Registrar or the Paying Agent and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment,
replacement or cancellation and shall destroy cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures (subject to the record
retention requirement of the Exchange Act). Certification of the destruction of all cancelled Notes shall, upon the written request
of the Company, be delivered to the Company. The Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have
been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

Section
2.12           Defaulted
Interest.

 

(a)               
If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner
plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special
record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in ‎Section 4.01. The Company 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 shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect
of such defaulted interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such defaulted interest as provided
in this Section 2.12. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided
that no such special record date shall be less than ten days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. The
Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special record date. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company
(or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall mail or deliver
by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or cause to be mailed or delivered
by

 

    38

     

    

electronic
transmission in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary to each Holder a notice that states the special record
date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

 

(b)               
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12 and for greater certainty, each Note delivered under this Indenture
upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and
unpaid, and to accrue interest, which were carried by such other Note.

 

Section
2.13           CUSIP
and ISIN Numbers

 

The Company
in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP or ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP or ISIN
numbers in notices of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such
notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained
in any notice of redemption or exchange or in Offers to Purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or exchange or Offer to Purchase shall not be affected by any defect in
or omission of such numbers. The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP
or ISIN numbers.

 

ARTICLE
3

3.01           Notices
to Trustee.

 

If the Company
elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, it shall furnish to the Trustee, Registrar, Paying Agent and Transfer Agent no
later than 15 days before notice of redemption is required to be mailed or caused to be mailed to Holders pursuant to Section
3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to by the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before a redemption date (unless in
connection with a defeasance under Article 8), an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the paragraph or subparagraph of such
Note or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur and such information as is required under Section

Section
3.02           Selection
of Notes to Be Redeemed or Purchased.

 

(a)               
If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.07 or purchased in an Offer to Purchase at any time,
the selection of the Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be made as follows: (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities
exchange and the Paying Agent is notified of such listing, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities
exchange on which the Notes are listed or (2) if such national securities exchange has no requirement governing redemptions or
if the Notes are not so listed, the Depositary shall select the Notes by lot in the case of Global Notes and otherwise on a pro
rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion deems to be fair and appropriate. In
the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed or purchased shall be selected, unless
otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 (or 15 days in the case of ‎Section 3.07(g)) nor more than 60 days prior
to the redemption date by the Trustee from the then outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption or purchase.

 

(b)               
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case
of any Note selected for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions
of Notes selected shall be in

 

    39

     

    

amounts
of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1,000; provided that no Notes of $200,000 in principal amount or less shall be redeemed
in part. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption
or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase.

 

(c)               
After the redemption date or purchase date, upon surrender of a Note to be redeemed or purchased in part only, a new Note
or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the original Note, representing the same Debt to
the extent not redeemed or not purchased, shall be issued in the name of the Holder of the Notes upon cancellation of the original
Note (or appropriate book entries shall be made to reflect such partial redemption).

 

 Section 3.03           Notice
of Redemption.

 

(a)               
Subject to Section 3.09, the Company shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable
procedures of the Depositary, or cause to be mailed (or delivered by electronic transmission in accordance with the applicable
procedures of the Depositary) notices of redemption of Notes not less than ten days but not more than 60 days before the redemption
date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Article at such Holder’s registered address or otherwise
in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days
prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with Article 8 or Article 13. Except as set forth in Section 3.07(f),
notices of redemption may not be conditional.

 

(b)               
The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed (including CUSIP and ISIN number, if applicable) and shall state:

 

(1)       the
redemption date;

 

(2)       the
redemption price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest; provided that in connection
with a redemption under Section 3.07(a), the notice need not set forth the redemption price but only the manner of calculation
thereof;

 

(3)       if
any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed;

 

(4)       the
name and address of the Paying Agent;

 

(5)       that
Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

 

(6)       that,
unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment pursuant
to the terms of this Indenture, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

 

(7)       the
paragraph or subparagraph of the Notes or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being
redeemed;

 

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

 

(9)       if
applicable, any condition to such redemption.

 

    40

     

    

(c)               
At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the
Company’s expense; provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days before notice
of redemption is required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to this Section 3.03 (unless a shorter notice shall
be agreed to by the Trustee), an Officer’s Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the
information to be stated in such notice as provided in Section 3.03(b).

 

(d)               
From and after the date the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market and so
long as it is required by the rules of such exchange, the Company shall publish notice of redemption as described in ‎Section
14.02(d).

 

Section
3.04           Effect
of Notice of Redemption.

 

Once notice
of redemption is given in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price (except as provided for in Section 3.07(f)). The notice, if mailed or delivered by
electronic transmission 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 or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note designated
for redemption in whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. Subject
to Section 3.05, on and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption.

 

Section
3.05           Deposit
of Redemption or Purchase Price.

 

(a)               
No later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption or purchase date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee
or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes
to be redeemed or purchased on that date. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the
related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder of record on such Record Date.
The Paying Agent shall promptly send to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed or repurchased the applicable redemption or
purchase price thereof and accrued and unpaid interest thereon via wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts
specified by such Holders thereof. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Company any money deposited with
the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase price of,
and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased.

 

(b)               
If the Company complies with the provisions of Section 3.05(a), on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest
shall cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased
on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption
or purchase date in respect of such Note will be paid on such redemption or purchase date to the Person in whose name such Note
is registered at the close of business on such Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase shall not be so paid
upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Company to comply with Section 3.05(a), interest
shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid, and, to the extent lawful,
on any interest accrued to the redemption or purchase date not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided
in the Notes and in ‎Section 4.01.

 

 Section 3.06           Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part.

 

Upon surrender
of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee
shall promptly authenticate and mail to the

 

    41

     

    

Holder (or
make appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in any Global Note) at the expense of the Company a new Note
equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered representing the same Debt to the extent
not redeemed or purchased; provided that each new Note shall be in a principal amount of $200,000 or an integral multiple
of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, only an Authentication
Order and not an Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate such new Note.

 

Section
3.07           Optional
Redemption.

 

(a)               
At any time prior to April 4, 2022 , the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole
or in part, upon notice pursuant to ‎Section 3.03 at a redemption price as calculated by the Company equal to 100%
of the outstanding principal amount of such Notes, plus the Applicable Premium. Promptly after the determination thereof, the
Company shall give the Trustee notice of the redemption price provided for in this Section 3.07(a), and the Trustee shall
not be responsible for such calculation.

 

(b)               
On or prior to April 4, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions, at its option, use an amount not to exceed
the net cash proceeds of one or more Eligible Equity Offerings to redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Notes (including any Additional Notes) with the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Eligible Equity Offerings, upon notice pursuant
to Section 3.03, at a redemption price as calculated by the Company equal to 107.125% of the principal amount of the Notes
redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date; provided
that (1) after giving effect to any such redemption,  at least 60% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including
any Additional Notes but excluding Notes held by the Company and its Subsidiaries) issued under this Indenture remains outstanding;
and (2) the Company makes such redemption not more than 180 days after the consummation of such Eligible Equity Offering.

 

(c)               
Except pursuant to clauses (a), (b), (g) or (h) of this Section 3.07, the Notes shall not be redeemable at the Company’s
option prior to April 4, 2022.

 

(d)               
On and after April 4, 2022, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in
part, upon notice pursuant to Section 3.03 at the redemption prices as calculated by the Company (expressed as a percentage
of outstanding principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date
to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on April 4 of
the years set forth below::

 

	Year
	Percentage

	2022	103.563%
	2023	101.781%
	2024
    and thereafter	100.000%
	 	 

 

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

 

(f)                
Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a corporate transaction (including an Eligible Equity Offering,
an Incurrence of Debt or a Change of Control Triggering Event) may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion
thereof and any such redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent,
including, but

 

    42

     

    

not
limited to, completion of the related transaction. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more
conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s
discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption
or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied
by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed. The Company may designate at its option and provide in such notice
that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be
performed by another Person; provided that any call for redemption by such Person be treated as if such call was made by
the Company.

 

(g)               
In connection with any tender offer for the Notes, in the event that the Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company,
or a third party making such a tender offer in lieu of the Company, purchases all the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn
by such Holders, the Company or any such third party will have the right, on not less than ten nor more than 60 days’ prior
notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase date, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following
such purchase at the purchase price equal to that offered to each other Holder in such tender offer plus, to the extent not included
in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes that remain outstanding,
to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the
relevant Interest Payment Date).

 

(h)               
(1) At any time, if the Company or any successor is or, on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect
of the Notes, would be required to pay Additional Amounts on the Notes, or any Guarantor or any successor is required to pay Additional
Amounts on the Note Guarantees, the Company or any successor may elect to redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, at a redemption
price as calculated by the Company equal to 100% of the remaining principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and
any Additional Amounts accrued to, but excluding, the fixed date of redemption. The Company or any successor will not be entitled
to redeem the Notes pursuant to the previous sentence unless the Company, a Guarantor or any successor is required to pay such
Additional Amounts due to a change in or amendment to the laws (or any rules or regulations thereunder) of the jurisdiction of
its incorporation or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, including a change in or amendment to an
official interpretation, administration or application of such laws, rules, or regulations (including a holding by a court of
competent jurisdiction), which change or amendment becomes effective or is announced on or after the Issue Date or, in the event
a successor which is not incorporated pursuant to the laws of the United States has assumed the obligations under the Notes, on
or after the date a successor assumes the obligations under the Notes.

 

(2)            
In the event that the Company or any successor elects to redeem the Notes pursuant to clause ‎(h)(1) above,
it will deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent: (1) an Officer’s Certificate, signed in the name of the Company or
any successor, stating that (a) the Company or such successor is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to the terms of this Indenture
and the Notes and certifying that the condition or conditions precedent to the right of the Company or any successor to so redeem
have occurred or been satisfied and (b) the payment of Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the relevant payor taking reasonable
measures available to it; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall not include changing the payor’s jurisdiction
of incorporation or the location of its principal executive office or registered office; and (2) an opinion of tax counsel of
nationally recognized standing in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, to the effect that the Company, a Guarantor or any successor
has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of the change or amendment described

 

    43

     

    

in
the preceding paragraph, and that all governmental requirements necessary for the Company or any successor to effect the redemption
have been complied with.

 

Section
3.08           Mandatory
Redemption; Open Market Purchases.

 

The Company
will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

 

The Company
or its Affiliates may at any time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise at any price. Any such purchased Notes will not
be resold, except in compliance with applicable requirements or exemptions under the relevant securities laws.

 

Section
3.09           Offers
to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.

 

(a)               
In the event that, pursuant to ‎Section 4.16, the Company is required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, the Company
must, within 30 days, make such Asset Sale Offer to purchase Notes having a principal amount equal to:

 

(A)
accumulated Excess Proceeds, multiplied by

 

(B)
a fraction (x) the numerator of which is equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and (y) the denominator of which
is equal to the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes and all other Parity Debt that is similarly required to be
repaid, redeemed or tendered for in connection with the Asset Sale, rounded down to the nearest $1,000.

 

The purchase
price for the Notes will be 100% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts,
if any, to the date of purchase. If the Offer to Purchase is for less than all of the outstanding Notes and Notes in an aggregate
principal amount in excess of the purchase amount are tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the offer, the Company will purchase
Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the purchase amount on a pro rata basis, with adjustments so that only Notes
in multiples of $1,000 principal amount will be purchased; provided that after a purchase from a holder in part, such holder shall
hold $200,000 in principal amount of notes or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

(b)               
The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement, except to the extent
that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Asset Sale Offer Period”). No later than 30 Business
Days after the termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period (the “Asset Sale Purchase Date”), the Company will
apply all Excess Proceeds to the purchase of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, Parity Debt (on a pro
rata basis, if applicable) required to be purchased pursuant to ‎Section 4.16 (the “Asset Sale Offer Amount”),
or, if less than the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes (and, if applicable, Parity Debt) has been so validly tendered, all Notes
and Parity Debt validly tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased will be made in the same
manner as interest payments on the Notes are made.

 

(c)               
If the Asset Sale Purchase Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued,
unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, up to but excluding the Asset Sale Purchase Date, shall be paid to the Person
in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date.

 

(d)               
Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company shall mail a notice to each of the Holders or otherwise deliver
such notice in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain
all instructions and

 

    44

     

    

materials
necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders
and, if required, all holders of Parity Debt. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state:

 

(1)       that
an Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and ‎Section 4.16 and the expiration time of the Asset Sale
Period;

 

(2)       the
Asset Sale Offer Amount, the purchase price, including the portion thereof representing any accrued and unpaid interest, and the
Asset Sale Purchase Date;

 

(3)       that
Notes must be tendered in integral multiples of $1,000 (subject to clause (8) below), and any Note not properly tendered will
remain outstanding and will continue to accrue interest;

 

(4)       that,
unless the Company defaults in making the payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to
accrue interest on and after the Asset Sale Purchase Date;

 

(5)       that
Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form
entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to such Note completed, the Paying Agent specified in the notice
at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Asset Sale Purchase
Date;

 

(6)       that
Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives
at the address specified in the notice, not later than the expiration of the Asset Sale Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission
or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Notes the Holder tendered for purchase and a statement
that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Note purchased;

 

(7)       that,
if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Parity Debt surrendered by the holders thereof exceeds the Asset Sale Offer Amount,
then the Notes and such Parity Debt will be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate accreted value or principal
amount, as applicable, of the Notes or such Parity Debt tendered and the selection of the Notes for purchase shall be made as
follows: (1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange and the Paying Agent is notified of such listing, in
compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed or (2) if such national
securities exchange has no requirement governing redemptions or if the Notes are not so listed on a securities exchange, the Depositary
shall select the Notes to be redeemed by lot in the case of Global Notes and otherwise on a pro rata basis, by lot or by
such other method as the Paying Agent may reasonably determine is fair and appropriate, although no Note having a principal amount
of $200,000 shall be purchased in part;

 

(8)       that
Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion
of the Notes surrendered (the unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof); and

 

(9)       the
other procedures, as determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 3.09 that a Holder must follow.

 

    45

     

    

(e)               
On or before the Asset Sale Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata
basis to the extent necessary or as otherwise provided in ‎Section 4.16(a)(5), the Asset Sale Offer Amount of Notes
and Parity Debt or portions thereof validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or, if less
than the Asset Sale Offer Amount has been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, all Notes and Parity Debt so tendered,
in the case of the Notes, in whole number multiples of $1,000; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a
Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately after such repurchase would be less than $200,000, then
the portion of such Note so repurchased shall be reduced so that the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding immediately
after such repurchase is $200,000. The Company will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee the Notes so accepted and
an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof so accepted and that such Notes
or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.09.

 

(f)                
The Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Company, as the case may be, will promptly, but in no event later than five Business
Days after termination of the Asset Sale Offer Period, distribute to each tendering Holder or holder or lender of Parity Debt,
as the case may be, an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes or the Parity Debt so validly tendered and not properly
withdrawn by such holder or lender, as the case may be, and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly
issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to
be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture
to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate is required for the Trustee to authenticate and mail or
deliver such new Note) in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided that each
such new Note will be in a principal amount of $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted
will be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. The Company will announce the results of the Asset
Sale Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Asset Sale Purchase Date.

 

(g)               
The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act (to the extent applicable) and all other applicable
laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer, and the procedures related to
an Asset Sale Offer contained in this Indenture will be modified as necessary to permit such compliance. To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company will comply with
the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Indenture by
virtue thereof.

Section
4.06           Reporting
Requirements.

 

(a)               
 Whether or not required by the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will file with the SEC for public
availability within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations taking into account any extension of time,
deemed filing date or safe harbor contemplated or provided for by Rule 12b-25, Rule 13a-11(c), and Rule 15d-11(c) under the Exchange
Act, or General Instruction I.A.3(b) of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, and successor provisions (unless the SEC will not accept
such a filing, in which case the Company will furnish to the Trustee and, upon its prior request, to any Holder, within the time
periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations):

 

(1)            
all quarterly and annual financial and hydrocarbon proved reserve information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries
that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K 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

 

(2)            
all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such
reports.

 

(b)               
For so long as any Notes remain outstanding and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3),
if at any time the Company and the Guarantors are not required to file the reports required by the preceding paragraphs with the
SEC, they will furnish to the Holders and to securities analysts and prospective investors in the Notes, upon their request, the
information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. The Company will be deemed to have
provided such information to the holders of the Notes, securities analysts and prospective holders of the Notes if it has filed
reports containing such information with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system and such reports are publicly available.

 

(c)               
In the event that:

 

(1)            
the rules and regulations of the SEC permit the Company and any direct or indirect parent company of the Company to report
at such parent entity’s level on a consolidated basis and such parent entity of the Company is not engaged in any business
in any material respect other than incidental to its ownership, directly or indirectly, of the Capital Stock of the Company, or

 

(2)            
any direct or indirect parent of the Company becomes a Guarantor of the Notes,

 

such
consolidated reporting at such parent entity’s level in a manner consistent with that described in this Section 4.06 for
the Company will satisfy this covenant; provided that, such financial information is accompanied by consolidating information
that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such direct or indirect parent and any
of its Subsidiaries other than the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Company
and its Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand.

 

    48

     

    

(d)               
If the Company has designated any of its Subsidiaries as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and if any such Unrestricted Subsidiary
or group of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, if taken together as one Subsidiary, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Company,
then the annual and quarterly information required by ‎Section 4.06(a)(1) shall include a presentation of selected
financial metrics (in the Company’s sole discretion) of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries as a group in the “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section.

 

 Section 4.07           Compliance Certificate.

 

(a)               
The Company and each Guarantor will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after
the Issue Date, a certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer
stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been
made under the supervision of the signing officer with a view to determining whether the Company and each Guarantor have kept,
observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to such officer signing such
certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge, the Company and each Guarantor have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled
each and every condition and covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any
of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default shall have occurred, describing all such
Defaults of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Company and each Guarantor are taking or propose to take with
respect thereto).

 

(b)               
When any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the Trustee or the holder of any other evidence
of Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed Default, the Company
will promptly (which shall be within ten Business Days following the date on which the Company becomes aware of such Default,
receives notice of such Default or becomes aware of such action, as applicable) send to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
specifying such event, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereof.

repurchase, defeasance or acquisition or retirement; or

 

(iv)                       
make any Investment (other than Permitted Investments);

(3)               
the aggregate amount expended for such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments made on or after the Issue
Date would not, subject to Section 4.08(c), exceed the sum of:

 

(A)             
50% of the cumulative Consolidated Net Income (or, if the Consolidated Net Income is a loss, minus 100% of the amount of
the loss) of the Company beginning on the first day of the fiscal quarter in which the Issue Date occurs to the end of the most
recently completed fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been provided (or if not timely provided, required to be
provided) pursuant to this Indenture, plus

 

(B)             
subject to Section 4.08(b), the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds and the Fair Market Value of property received by the Company
((i) other than Net Cash Proceeds to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds have been used to Incur Debt pursuant to ‎Section
4.09(b)(18) or (ii) other than Net Cash Proceeds and the Fair Market Value of property from a Restricted Subsidiary) after the
Issue Date from

 

(x)       the
issuance and sale of its Qualified Equity Interests, or

 

(y)       as
a contribution to its common equity, plus

 

(C)             
the amount by which Debt of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is reduced on the Company’s balance
sheet or the balance sheet of such Restricted Subsidiary, in each case, upon the conversion or exchange (other than by the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) subsequent to the issue date of any such Debt for Qualified Equity Interests of the Company
(less the amount of any cash or the Fair Market Value of any other property distributed by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries upon such conversion or exchange); plus

 

(D)             
without duplication of any amount included in the calculation of Consolidated Net Income, an amount equal to the sum of

subsequent to the Issue Date with respect to Investments (other than Permitted Investments) made after the Issue Date by the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in any Person, proceeds realized on the sale of such Investments and proceeds representing

of the Company, the portion (proportionate to the Company’s equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the Fair Market Value
of the net assets of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is so re-designated; provided, however,

Investments
(excluding Permitted Investments) previously made (and treated as a Restricted Payment) by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries in such Person or Unrestricted Subsidiary; plus

 

(E)              
without duplication of any amount included above under this clause, 100% of any dividends received by the Company or any

Disqualified Stock; provided that such Net Cash Proceeds shall be excluded from the calculation in clause (3)(B) of ‎Section
4.08(a);

 

(5)            
repurchases of Equity Interests of the Company deemed to occur upon exercise of warrants, options or rights to acquire

(6)            
 the payment of dividends, distributions or other amounts to fund the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement

redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests in all cases, other than as a result of death, disability or termination of employment
or directorship does not exceed $10.0 million in the aggregate in any fiscal year (with unused amounts in any fiscal year being
carried over to succeeding fiscal years subject to a maximum payment (without giving effect to the following proviso) of $20.0

exceed: (A) the cash proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Qualified Equity Interests of the Company to any present
or former employees, directors, officers or consultants (or their respective permitted transferees) of the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries following the Issue Date, to the extent that such cash proceeds have not otherwise been applied

 

    51

     

    

to

in clause (3)(B) of ‎Section 4.08(a); plus (B) the cash proceeds of “key man” life insurance policies
received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the Issue Date;

    55

     

    

Company)
after the Issue Date from (i) the issuance and/or sale of its Qualified Equity Interests or (ii) as a contribution to its common

(19)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ‎Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Debt that the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this ‎Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect
to any outstanding Debt, solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.

 

(d)               
For purposes of determining compliance with this ‎Section 4.09, in the event that any proposed Debt meets the
criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (22) of ‎Section 4.09(b),
or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to ‎Section 4.09(a), the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted
to classify such item of Debt at the time of its Incurrence in any manner that complies with this ‎Section 4.09 or
to later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Debt. Any Permitted Refinancing Debt and any Debt permitted to be Incurred
under this Indenture to refinance Debt Incurred pursuant to clauses (2), (3), (4), (6), (7), (15), (18), (19), (20) and (21) of
‎Section 4.09(b) shall be deemed to include additional Debt Incurred to pay premiums (including tender premiums), discounts,
fees and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) in connection with such refinancing.

 

(e)               
The Company may not Incur any Debt that is subordinate in right of payment to other Debt of the Company unless such Debt
is also subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the relevant guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided,
however, that no Debt will be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment to any other Debt of the Company solely by virtue
of being unsecured, by virtue of being secured with different collateral or by virtue of being secured on a junior priority basis
or by virtue of the applicability of waterfall or other payment ordering provisions affecting different tranches of Debt.

 

    56

     

    

(f)                
The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of regularly scheduled interest
in the form of additional Debt of the same instrument or the payment of regularly scheduled dividends on Disqualified Stock in
the form of additional Disqualified Stock with the same terms will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Debt for purposes of this
‎Section 4.09; provided that any such outstanding additional Debt paid in respect of Debt Incurred pursuant
to any provision of clause (b) above will be counted as Debt outstanding for purposes of any future Incurrence of Debt pursuant
to ‎Section 4.09(a).

 

(g)               
For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Debt, the U.S.
dollar-equivalent principal amount of Debt denominated in a non-U.S. currency will be calculated based on the relevant currency
exchange rate in effect on the date such Debt was Incurred or, in the case of revolving credit Debt, first committed; provided
that if such Debt is Incurred to refinance other Debt denominated in a non-U.S. currency, and such refinancing would cause
the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as
the principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing Debt does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced. The
principal amount of any Debt Incurred to refinance other Debt, if Incurred in a different currency from the Debt being refinanced,
will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted Refinancing Debt is
denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

 

(h)               
Upon written request and the receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the amendment
or supplement is authorized or permitted under this Indenture and the Security Documents and that all conditions precedent thereto
have been satisfied, to the extent it is necessary to amend or supplement the Security Documents to provide for any Incurrence
of Debt permitted by this Indenture, the Trustee is hereby expressly authorized and directed to enter any such amendments or supplements
on behalf of the Holders.

(a)               
The Company will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor to guarantee the payment of any
Debt of the Company or any Guarantor (other than Debt Incurred by any Guarantor as primary obligor under ‎Section 4.09(b)(15)
(and in each case any refinancings thereof)) in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding in excess of the greater
of (i) $50.0 million and (ii) 2.5% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, unless:

 

(1)            
such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers an accession deed to the Deed of Guarantee or a supplemental
indenture to this Indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, as the case may be, providing for a guarantee of payment
of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary on similar terms as the guarantee
of the Debt that resulted in the creation of such Note Guarantee; except that if such Debt is by its express terms subordinated
in right of payment to the Notes, any such guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Debt will be subordinated
in right of payment to such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee with respect to the Notes substantially to the same extent
as such Debt is subordinated to the Notes; and

 

    60

     

    

(2)            
such Restricted Subsidiary will deliver to the Security and Intercreditor Agent, the Trustee and the Paying Agent an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that:

 

(A)             
such accession deed or supplemental indenture and guarantee, as the case may be, have been duly executed and authorized;
and

 

(B)             
such Note Guarantee constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Restricted Subsidiary (subject to customary
exceptions and limitations), except insofar as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws (including,
without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and except insofar as enforcement thereof is subject to general
principles of equity.

 

(b)               
Upon written request and the receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the amendment
or supplement is authorized or permitted under this Indenture and the Security Documents and that all conditions precedent thereto
have been satisfied, to the extent it is necessary to amend or supplement the Security Documents to provide for any guarantee
of Debt (including, without limitation, a Note Guarantee) permitted by this Indenture, the Trustee is hereby expressly authorized
and directed to enter any such amendments or supplements on behalf of the Holders.

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant
to Sections ‎3.03 and ‎3.07, the Company or a third party so designated will make an offer to purchase
all of the Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal

will mail a notice of such Change of Control Offer to each Holder or otherwise deliver notice in accordance with the applicable
procedures of the Depositary, with a copy to the Trustee, stating:

 

(1)       that
a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this ‎Section 4.15, the expiration time for such Change of Control Offer
(which shall be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or otherwise delivered in accordance
with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer
will be accepted for purchase by the Company at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the applicable Record
Date to receive interest due on the Change of Control Payment Date);

 

(2)       the
purchase date (which shall be no later than five Business Days after the date such Change of Control Offer expires) (the “Change
of Control Payment Date”);

 

    65

     

    

(3)       that
Notes must be tendered in integral multiples of $1,000, and any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue
to accrue interest (subject to clause (7) below);

 

(4)       that,
unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date;

 

(5)       that
Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with

of Control Payment Date;

 

(6)       that
Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such Notes; provided
that the Paying Agent receives at the address specified in the notice, not later than the expiration time of such Change of
Control Offer, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount
of Notes tendered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such
Notes purchased;

 

(7)       that,
if a Holder is tendering less than all of its Notes, such Holder will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased
portion of the Notes surrendered (the unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $200,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000
in excess thereof); and

 

(8)       the
other procedures, as determined by the Company, consistent with this ‎Section 4.15 that a Holder must follow.

 

The notice,
if mailed or otherwise delivered in a manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been given, whether or not
the Holder receives such notice. If (A) the notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (B) any Holder fails to receive such
notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect
shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received
such notice without defect.

 

(b)       On
the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

 

(1)       accept
for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in integral multiples of $1,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control
Offer; provided that if, following repurchase of a portion of a Note, the remaining principal amount of such Note outstanding

the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company in accordance with this ‎Section
4.15.

to each Holder so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or
otherwise deliver in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary) (or make appropriate adjustments to the amount
and beneficial interests in any Global Note) to each Holder a new Note (it being understood that, notwithstanding anything in
this Indenture to the contrary, no Opinion of Counsel or Officer’s Certificate will be required for the Trustee to authenticate
and mail or deliver such new Note) equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided
that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $200,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

 

(d)               
If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date,
any accrued and unpaid interest to the Change of Control Payment Date will be paid on the Change of Control Payment Date to the
Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Record Date.

 

(e)               
Prior to making a Change of Control Payment, and as a condition to such payment (1) the requisite lenders or holders
of Debt incurred or issued under a credit facility, an indenture or other agreement that may be violated by such payment shall
have consented to such Change of Control Payment being made and waived the event of default, if any, caused by the Change of Control
Triggering Event or (2) the Company will repay all outstanding Debt incurred or issued under a credit facility, an indenture
or other agreement that may be violated by a Change of Control Payment or the Company will offer to repay all such Debt, make
payment to the lenders or holders of such Debt that accept such offer and obtain waivers of any event of default arising under
the relevant credit facility, indenture or other agreement from the remaining lenders or holders of such Debt. The Company covenants
to effect such repayment or obtain such consent prior to making a Change of Control Payment, it being a default of the Change
of Control Triggering Event provisions of this Indenture if the Company fails to comply with such covenant.

 

(f)                 the
Company will not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party
makes the Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event in the manner, at the time and otherwise in
compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control
Triggering Event made by the Company and purchases all the notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Offer to
Purchase or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Indenture as described under ‎
Article 3 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

 

(g)               
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control
Triggering Event and be conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event if a definitive agreement is in place for the
Change of Control at the time of making of the Offer to Purchase and (ii) an Offer to Purchase may be made at the same time as
consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this Indenture, the Notes and/or Note Guarantees
(but the Offer to Purchase may not condition tenders on the delivery of such consents).

 

(h)               
In the event that the Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes accept an
Offer to Purchase and the Company or a third party purchases all the Notes held by such Holders, the Company will have the right,
on not less than ten nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to
the Offer to Purchase, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at the Change of Control Payment
equal to that in the Offer to Purchase plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest
and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes that remain

 

    67

     

    

outstanding,
to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Change of Control Payment Date to receive
interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

 

(i)                
The Company will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act (to the extent applicable) and all other applicable laws
and regulations in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, and the above procedures
will be deemed modified as necessary to permit such compliance. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations
conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company will 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.

 

(j)                
Other than as specifically provided in this ‎Section 4.15, any purchase pursuant to this ‎Section
4.15 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections ‎3.02, ‎3.05 and ‎3.06.

Permitted Business or (iv) a Permitted Business Investment; or

 

(C)             
to make a Restricted Payment pursuant to ‎Section 4.08(b)(16) to the extent of the limitation on the amount
of such Restricted Payment set forth therein.

 

(4)            
Notwithstanding clauses (2) and (3) above, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to consummate
an Asset Sale without complying with such clauses to the extent either (A) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale
constitutes Additional Assets, cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Marketable Securities or (B) in the event of an Asset Sale involving
Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary, (i) at least 30% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes Additional
Assets, cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Marketable Securities received at closing; provided that the remaining 45% of the consideration
is paid on or prior to the third anniversary of the closing and constitutes Additional Assets, cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Marketable
Securities and (ii) in the event existing Equity Interests are sold by the Company that such Equity Interests are pledged in favor
of the Company or Restricted Subsidiary (or such Equity Interests are mortgaged for the benefit of the Company or Restricted Subsidiary)
until such consideration is paid; provided that any consideration not constituting Additional Assets received by the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with any Asset Sale permitted to be consummated under this clause shall be applied
(in the case of cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities within 365 days after the receipt thereof subject to the proviso
above) in accordance with the provisions of clause (3) above.

 

(5)            
The Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Sale not applied pursuant to ‎Section 4.16(a)(3) or determined by the Board
of Directors to not be applied pursuant to ‎Section 4.16(a)(3)(B) within the Asset Sale Proceeds Application Period
constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Excess Proceeds of less than $50.0 million will be carried forward and accumulated.
When accumulated Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds such amount, the Company must, within 30 days, make an offer (“Asset
Sale Offer”) to purchase Notes pursuant to ‎Section 3.09. Upon completion of an Asset Sale Offer,
Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligation with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds
from an Asset Sale by making an offer to purchase Notes with respect to the amount of all or part of the available Net Cash Proceeds
prior to the expiration of the Asset Sale Proceeds Application Period with respect to the amount of all or part of the available
Net Cash Proceed in advance of being required to do so by this Indenture.

 

(b)               
Pending application in accordance with this ‎Section 4.16, Net Cash Proceeds may be applied to temporarily reduce
revolving credit borrowings, if any, or invested in Cash Equivalents. The Fair Market Value for any Asset Sale will be determined
by the Company in good faith.

 

    69

     

    

(c)               
To the extent that any portion of Net Cash Proceeds payable in respect of the Notes is denominated in a currency other
than U.S. dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in U.S. dollars
that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into U.S. dollars.

 

(d)               
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this ‎Section 4.16, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash
Proceeds of any Asset Sales is prohibited or delayed by applicable law, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will
not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 4.16, and such amounts may be retained by the Company or Subsidiary,
as applicable, so long, but only so long, as the applicable law will not permit repatriation to the United States or the Cayman
Islands (the Company hereby agreeing to use reasonable efforts (as determined in the Company’s good faith judgment) to,
or otherwise cause the applicable Subsidiary to, promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable law to permit
such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted under the applicable law,
such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later
than five Business Days after such repatriation could be made) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as
a result thereof) (whether or not repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with this ‎Section 4.16 and (ii) to the
extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any such prohibited
or delayed Asset Sale would have a material adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds (which for the
avoidance of doubt, may include, but is not limited to, any prepayment whereby doing so the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary
or any of their respective affiliates and/or equity partners would incur a tax liability, including as a result of a dividend
or a deemed dividend, or a withholding tax), the Net Proceeds so affected may be retained by the applicable Subsidiary. The non-application
of any prepayment amounts as a consequence of the foregoing provisions will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute a Default
or an Event of Default. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate from the Company
to the effect that applicable law will not permit repatriation of such amounts to the United States.

 

Section
4.17           Covenant
Termination.

 

(a)               
If on any date:

 

(1)            
the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating from both of the Rating Agencies; and

 

(2)            
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture,

 

then, beginning on that day
and continuing at all times thereafter regardless of any subsequent changes in the rating of the Notes, the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries will not be subject to Sections ‎4.08, ‎4.09, ‎4.11, 4.12, ‎4.14, ‎4.16 and ‎5.01(a)(4).

 

(b)               
The Company will provide the Trustee and the Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate upon which the Trustee and Paying
Agent can conclusively rely that the Notes are given Investment Grade Ratings.

 

Section
4.18           Payment
of Additional Amounts

 

(a)               
All payments by the Company in respect of the Notes or the Guarantors in respect of the Note Guarantees will be made without
withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments, or other governmental charges
of whatever nature imposed or

 

    70

     

    

levied
by or on behalf of the Company’s, a Guarantor’s or any successor’s jurisdiction of incorporation or tax residence
or the jurisdiction in which central management or control of the Company, such Guarantor or such successor, as applicable, is
exercised, or in or through which payments are made in respect of the Notes or the Note Guarantees or, in each case, any political
subdivision or governmental authority therein (each a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the Company,
such Guarantor or such successor is compelled by law to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties, assessments, or governmental charges.
In such event, the relevant payor will make such deduction or withholding, make payment of the amount so withheld to the appropriate
governmental authority and pay such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary to ensure
that the net amounts receivable by holders of Notes after such withholding or deduction (including any withholding or deduction
in respect of such payment of Additional Amounts) shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest (and premium, if
any) which would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction. No such Additional
Amounts shall be payable:

 

(1)
to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder or beneficial owner who is liable for such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental
charges in respect of such Note by reason of the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder (or between
a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership,
or a corporation) or beneficial owner and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, including, without limitation, such Holder (or such
fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder) or beneficial owner being or having been a citizen or resident thereof
or being or having been engaged in a trade or business or present therein or having, or having had, a permanent establishment
therein, other than the mere holding of the Note or enforcement of rights and the receipt of payments with respect to the Note;

 

(2)
in respect of Notes surrendered (if surrender is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that
payments under such Note would have been subject to withholding and the Holder or beneficial owner of such Note would have been
entitled to such Additional Amounts, on surrender of such Note for payment on the last day of such period of 30 days;

 

(3)
to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder or beneficial owner who is liable for such taxes, duties, assessments or other
governmental charges by reason of such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s failure to comply with any certification, identification
or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such Holder or beneficial owner or its connection
with a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, if (a) compliance is required by such jurisdiction, or any political subdivision or authority
thereof or therein having power to tax, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, the tax, duty, assessment
or other governmental charge and (b) the Company or any Guarantor has given the Holders at least 30 days’ notice that Holders
will be required to provide such certification or identification or comply with such other requirement;

 

(4)
in respect of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise or personal property or similar tax, assessment or governmental
charge;

 

(5)
in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments
of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Note or by direct payment by the Company or any Guarantor in respect of claims
made against the Company or any Guarantor;

 

(6)
in respect of United States federal withholding tax imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (i) being or having
been a bank, including any entity regulated as a bank 

 

    71

     

    

or
conducting a banking business, receiving payments on an extension of credit in the ordinary course of its lending business, (ii)
being or having been a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes related, directly or indirectly, to
the Company through stock ownership or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax; (iii) being
or having been an actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled
to vote of the Company or (iv) failing to provide an applicable IRS Form W-8 certifying as to such Person’s non-U.S. status;

 

(7)
in respect of any tax, assessment, withholding or deduction required by Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (“FATCA”),
any current or future Treasury regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted
in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA, any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and any other jurisdiction pursuant
to the implementation of FATCA, or any agreement with the United States Internal Revenue Service pursuant to the implementation
of FATCA; or

 

(8)
in respect of any combination of the above.

 

(b)               
No Additional Amounts shall be paid with respect to any payment on a Note to a Holder who is a fiduciary, a partnership,
a limited liability company or other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment to the extent that payment would be required
by the laws of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or any political subdivision thereof, to be included in the income, for tax purposes,
of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a member of the partnership, an interest holder in the limited liability
company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had that beneficiary, settlor, member,
interest holder or beneficial owner been the Holder.

The Company or applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, will provide the Trustee and Paying Agent with the official acknowledgement
of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (or, if such acknowledgement is not available, other reasonable documentation) evidencing
the payment of any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges in respect of which the Company or such Guarantor,
as the case may be, has paid any Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation will be forwarded by the Trustee to the Holders
of the Notes.

 

(c)               
At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable (unless
such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises shortly before or after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case it shall
be promptly thereafter), if the Company or applicable Guarantor, as the case may be, will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts
with respect to such payment, the Company will deliver to the Trustee (who shall forward to the Holders) and Paying Agent an Officer’s
Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other
information necessary to enable the Paying Agent to remit such Additional Amounts to Holders of Notes on the payment date. Each
such Officer’s Certificate shall be relied upon until receipt of a new Officer’s Certificate addressing such matters.

 

(d)               
The Company will pay any stamp, issue, excise, property, registration, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including
interest and penalties, imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in respect of the creation, issue, delivery, registration and
offering of the Notes or the execution of the Notes, the Note Guarantees or this Indenture. The Company will also pay and indemnify
each of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Holders and beneficial owners of the Notes from and against all court taxes or other
taxes and duties, including interest and penalties, paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with any action permitted
to be taken by the Holders and beneficial owners to enforce the Company’s obligations under the Notes.

 

(e)               
Any reference in this Indenture or the Notes to principal, interest or any other amount payable in respect of the Notes
by the Company or the Note Guarantees by any Guarantor will be

 

    72

     

    

deemed
also to refer to any Additional Amount, unless the context requires otherwise, that may be payable with respect to that amount
under the obligations referred to in this ‎Section 4.18.

 

(f)                
The obligations of this ‎Section 4.18 shall survive the termination or discharge of this Indenture.

 

 Section 4.19           Listing.

 

In the event
that the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market, the Company will use its best efforts
to maintain such listing; provided that if, as a result of the European Union regulated market amended Directive 2004/109/EC on
the admission of securities to official stock exchange listing and on information to be published on those securities (as amended,
the “Transparency Directive”) or any legislation implementing the Transparency Directive or other directives
or legislation, the Company could be required to publish financial information either more regularly than it otherwise would be
required to or according to accounting principles which are materially different from the accounting principles which the Company
would otherwise use to prepare its published financial information, the Company may delist the Notes from the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange in accordance with the rules of the exchange and will use its best efforts to obtain an alternative admission to listing,
trading and/or quotation for the Notes on a different section of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or by such other listing authority,
stock exchange and/or quotation system inside or outside the European Union as the Company’s Board of Directors may decide.

of holders of at least 25.0% in outstanding principal amount of the Notes) or the holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount
of the Notes outstanding notify the Company and the Trustee of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the
time specified in clause (5) of this ‎Section 6.01(a) after receipt of such notice.

 

(b)

knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (ii) written notice of any event which is in fact a Default or Event of Default
has been given to the Trustee at its corporate trust office by the Company, any Guarantor or any Holder, such notice identifying

(a)               
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (8) or (9)) of ‎Section 6.01(a))
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee (acting at the direction of holders of at least 25.0% in outstanding principal amount of
the Notes) by written notice to the Company, specifying the Event of Default, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount
of the then outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal, premium, if any, and
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, such principal, premium, if
any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be due and payable.

 

(b)               
In case an Event of Default described in clauses (8) or (9) of ‎Section 6.01(a) occurs and is continuing,
the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all the Notes will become and be immediately due
and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.

 

(c)               
In the event of a declaration of acceleration of the Notes because an Event of Default described in clause (6) of ‎Section
6.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, the declaration of acceleration of the Notes shall be automatically annulled if:

 

(1)       the
default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (6) of ‎Section 6.01(a) shall be remedied or cured by the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Debt within 20 days after the declaration of acceleration
with respect thereto; and

 

(2)       (A)
the annulment of the acceleration of the Notes would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction
and (B) all existing Events of Default, except nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes that became
due solely because of the acceleration of the Notes, have been cured or waived.

 

(d)               
The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may waive all past Events of Default (except with
respect to nonpayment of principal, premium or interest) and rescind any acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences
if (1) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) all
existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have
become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.

6.03           Other
Remedies.

 

If an Event
of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.

 

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

 

Section
6.04           Waiver
of Past Defaults.

 

The Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all Holders waive
any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except:

 

(1)       a
continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note held by a non-consenting
Holder (including in connection with an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer); and

 

(2)       a
Default or Event of Default with respect to a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each
Holder affected,

 

provided that, subject
to Section 6.02, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its
consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default or
Event of Default shall cease to exist, and, if applicable, any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
cured for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

 

Section
6.05           Control
by Majority.

 

The Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may
refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law, this Indenture, the Notes, the Security Documents or any Note Guarantee,
or that the Trustee determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the
Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action hereunder or under the Security Documents, the Trustee shall be entitled
to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

 

Section
6.06           Limitation
on Suits.

Holder has previously given the Trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

 

    79

     

    

(2)       the
Holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

 

(3)       such
Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense;

 

(4)       the
Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity;
and

 

(5)       the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion
of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

 

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

 

Section
6.07           Rights
of Holders to Receive Payment.

 

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest
on its Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note (including in connection with an Asset
Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective
dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

 

Section
6.08           Collection
Suit by Trustee.

 

If an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and
as trustee of an express trust against the Company and any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount of principal, premium,
if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes, together with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest
and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel.

 

Section
6.09           Restoration
of Rights and Remedies.

 

If the Trustee
or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject
to any determination in such proceedings, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall
continue as though no such proceeding has been instituted.

 

Section
6.10           Rights
and Remedies Cumulative.

 

Except as otherwise
provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, 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 are, to the extent permitted by law, 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.

 

    80

     

    

Section
6.11           Delay
or Omission Not Waiver.

 

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

 

Section
6.12           Trustee
May File Proofs of Claim.

to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee
and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee
under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured
by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the
Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement
or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt
on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of
any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

 

Section

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

of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required
to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform
to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other
facts stated therein).

 

(c)

own willful misconduct, except that:

paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;

 

    82

order, appraisal, bond or any other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person.

further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine in good faith
to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company,

take in good faith in reliance on such Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel
of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection

or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder,
or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds
or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

 

(g)               
The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer

Default, the Notes and this Indenture.

 

(h)

in the performance of such act.

Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee and the Paying Agent is for informational purposes only and
their respective receipt of such reports shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable
from information contained therein, including the Company’s, any Guarantor’s or any other Person’s compliance
with any of its covenants under this Indenture or the Notes (as to which the Trustee and the Paying Agent are entitled to rely

on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Company’s, any Guarantor’s or any other Person’s compliance with the
covenants described herein or with respect to any reports or other documents filed under this Indenture.

 

 Section 7.03           Individual Rights of Trustee.

 

The Trustee
or any Agent in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the
Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or such Agent. Any Agent may
do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11.

Section
7.05           Notice
of Defaults.

 

If a Default
or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee will give to each
Holder a notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of an Event of Default specified in clauses
(1) or (2) of ‎Section 6.01(a), the Trustee may withhold from the Holders notice of any continuing Default if the Trustee
determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. The Trustee shall not be deemed to know

7.06           [Reserved].

 

Section
7.07           Compensation
and Indemnity.

 

(a)               
The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation for
its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder and under the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents as
the parties shall agree in writing from time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation
of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements,
advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation

 

    85

     

    

for
its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents
and counsel. The Trustee shall provide the Company reasonable notice of any expenditure not in the ordinary course of business.

 

(b)               
The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee for, and
hold each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claims, liability or expense
(including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust
and the performance of its duties hereunder (including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture, the Notes, the Note
Guarantees and the Security Documents against the Company or any Guarantor (including this Section 7.07)) or defending itself
against any claim whether asserted by any Holder, the Company or any Guarantor, or liability in connection with the acceptance,
exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim
for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations
hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred
by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision. .

 

(c)               
The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture or the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee.

 

(d)               
To secure the payment obligations of the Company and the Guarantors in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a

and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

 

(e)               
When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(8) or
(9) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are
intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. The Trustee may resign in writing at any time by giving
30 days’ prior notice of such resignation to the Company and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying
the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so

promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the successor Trustee to replace it with another successor Trustee appointed
by the Company.

 

(c)               
If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Trustee (at the Company’s expense), the Company or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

(d)               
If the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with
Section 7.10, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment
of a successor Trustee.

 

(e)               
A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon,
the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights,
powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders.
The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided that

with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

 

    87

     

    

Section
8.02           Legal
Defeasance and Discharge.

 

(a)               
Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and the
Guarantors shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from
their obligations with respect to this Indenture, all outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth
below are satisfied (“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company shall be
deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Debt represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be
“outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses
(1) through (4) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture, including that
of the Guarantors (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute such instruments as reasonably
requested by the Company acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder:

 

(1)       the
rights of Holders to receive payments in respect of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments
are due, solely out of the trust created pursuant to this Indenture referred to in Section 8.04;

 

(2)       the
Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for Note payments held in trust;

 

(3)       the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith; and

 

(4)       this
Section 8.02.

 

(b)               
Following the Company’s exercise of its Legal Defeasance option, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because
of an Event of Default.

 

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

 

Section
8.03           Covenant
Defeasance.

 

Upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in
Sections ‎3.09, ‎4.03, ‎4.06, ‎4.08, ‎4.09, ‎Section 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, ‎Section 4.13, ‎4.14,
‎4.15, ‎4.16, ‎4.17, 4.19, and clause (4) of ‎Section 5.01(a) with respect to the outstanding Notes, and
the Guarantors shall be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all Note Guarantees, on and after
the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (“Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes
shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or
act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding”
for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes).
For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to this Indenture and the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit
to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any
such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default
or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above,

 

    88

     

    

the remainder
of this Indenture, and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the
option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, an
Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(3) (only with respect to the covenants that are released as a result of such
Covenant Defeasance), Section 6.01(a)(4) that resulted solely from the failure of the Company to comply with clause (4)
of Section 5.01(a), 6.01(a)(5) (only with respect to covenants that are released as a result of such Covenant Defeasance),
6.01(a)(6), 6.01(a)(7), 6.01(a)(8), 6.01(a)(9), 6.01(a)(11) (solely with respect to Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Restricted
Subsidiaries that, taken together (as of the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) and 6.01(a)(12), in each case, shall not constitute an Event of Default.

 

Section
8.04           Conditions

Company must irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, as confirmed, certified or attested by an internationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants in writing to the Trustee and Paying Agent, without consideration of any reinvestment
of interest, to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the
applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity
or to a particular redemption date;

 

(2)       in

subject to customary assumptions and exclusions,

 

(A)       the
Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or

 

(B)       since
the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,

 

in either case to the
effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income,
gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income
tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
occurred;

 

(3)       in
the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Opinion of Counsel confirming that,
subject to customary assumptions and exclusions, beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S.
federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to 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 Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

 

(4)       no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit
(other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any
similar and

 

    89

     

    

simultaneous deposit relating
to other Debt and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) and the deposit will not result in a breach or
violation of, or constitute a default under, the Senior Credit Facility or any other material agreement or material instrument
(other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

 

(5)       the
Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by
the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Company, any Guarantor or others;

 

(6)       the
Company has delivered to the Trustee and Paying Agent an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion
of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the
Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with; and

 

(7)       the
Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee and Paying Agent to apply the deposited money toward the payment
of the Notes at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be (which instructions may be contained in the Officer’s
Certificate referred to in clause (6) above).

 

Section
8.05           Deposited
Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

(a)               
Subject to Section 8.06, all money and Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Paying
Agent pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Paying Agent, in
accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, to the Holders of all sums due and to become
due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, but such money need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law. Money and Government Securities so held in trust are not subject to Article 12.

 

(b)               
The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee and Paying Agent against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed
against the cash or Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect
thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders.

 

(c)               
Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Paying Agent will deliver or pay to the Company from time
to time upon the request of the Company any money or Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the
opinion of an internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered
to the Trustee and Paying Agent (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof
that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

 

Section
8.06           Repayment
to the Company.

 

Subject to
any applicable abandoned property law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company,
in trust for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after
such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then
held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Company
for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to

 

    90

     

    

such trust money, and all liability
of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent,
before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New
York Times or The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after
a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed
balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

 

Section
8.07           Reinstatement.

 

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

(c)

by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting
Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent
Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the
waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its
terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

to Sign Amendments, etc.

 

Upon the request
of the Company, the Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment,
supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any

in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.03, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such
amendment, supplement or waiver is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and any Guarantor party thereto, enforceable
against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof (including
Section 9.03).

(a)               
This Indenture will be discharged, and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes, when:

MISCELLANEOUS

 

 Section 14.01        Limited Condition Transaction; Measuring Compliance.

 

(a)               
With respect to any (i) Investment or acquisition, in each case, the consummation by the Company or any Subsidiary of which
is not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third-party financing for such Investment or acquisition (whether
by merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination or the acquisition of Capital Stock or otherwise) as applicable
and (ii) redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock requiring irrevocable notice in advance of such redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment
(any transaction described in clauses (i) or (ii), a “Limited Condition Transaction”), in each case for purposes
of determining:

 

(1)            
whether any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is being incurred or issued
in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be incurred in compliance with Section 4.09;

 

(2)            
whether any Lien being incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction or to secure any such Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 4.10 and the definition of “Permitted
Liens”;

 

(3)            
whether any other transaction undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction
complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes; and

 

    101

     

    

 

(4)            
any calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, and/or EBITDAX
and/or Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and, whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection with the foregoing,

 

at the option
of the Company, the date that the definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition
Transaction is entered into (the “Transaction Agreement Date”) may be used as the applicable date of determination,
as the case may be, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment
provisions set forth in the definition of “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” or “Consolidated Total Debt Ratio,”
or “EBITDAX” and if the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries could have taken such action on the relevant Transaction
Agreement Date in compliance with the applicable ratios or other provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied
with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company elects to use the Transaction Agreement Date as the applicable date of determination
in accordance with the foregoing, (i) such election may not be revoked, (ii) any fluctuation or change in the Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio, Consolidated Total Debt Ratio, Consolidated Net Income, EBITDAX or Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company,
the target business, or assets to be acquired subsequent to the Transaction Agreement Date and prior to the consummation of such
Limited Condition Transaction, will not be taken into account for purposes of determining whether any Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock, Preferred Stock or Lien that is being incurred or issued in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted
to be incurred or issued or in connection with compliance by the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries with any other
provision of this Indenture or the Notes or any other action or transaction undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition
Transaction and (iii) until such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreements related thereto are
terminated, such Limited Condition Transaction and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including
the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens) will be given pro forma effect when determining compliance of other transactions (including
the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock and Liens unrelated to such Investment, acquisition
or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness) that are consummated after the Transaction Agreement Date and on or prior
to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction and any such transactions (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof) will be deemed to have occurred on the Transaction Agreement
Date and outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under this Indenture after the date of such
agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction; provided that for purposes of any such calculation
of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Interest Expense will be calculated using an assumed interest rate for the Indebtedness
to be incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction based on the indicative interest margin contained in any
financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably
determined by the Company in good faith.

 

(b)               
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i) incurs Indebtedness,
issues Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, creates Liens, makes Asset Sales, makes Investments, makes Restricted Payments,
designates any Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction under a ratio-based basket and (ii) incurs Indebtedness,
issues Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, creates Liens, makes Asset Sales, Investments or Restricted Payments, designates
any as a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock
in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction under a non-ratio-based basket (which shall occur within five Business Days
of the events in clause (i) above), then the applicable ratio will be calculated with respect to any 

 

    102

     

    

 

such action under the applicable
ratio-based basket without regard to any such action under such non-ratio-based basket made in connection with such Limited Condition
Transaction.

 

(c)               
Compliance with any requirement relating to absence of Default or Event of Default may be determined as of the Transaction
Agreement Date and not as of any later date as would otherwise be required under this Indenture.

 

(d)               
In the event an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued,
any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken on the same date that any other item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any other Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken,
then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without
regard to any other incurrence, issuance or transaction. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that
is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or
taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test.

(b)

dates, on the date of the first such publication; provided that any notice or communication delivered to the Trustee shall
be deemed effective upon actual receipt thereof.

 

(c)               
Any notice or communication to a Holder shall be mailed by first-class mail (certified or registered, return receipt requested)
or by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery to its address shown on the Note Register or by such other delivery
system as the Trustee agrees to accept. Failure to mail a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect
its sufficiency with respect to other Holders.

 

(d)               
From and after the date the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market and so
long as it is required by the rules of such exchange, all notices to holders of the Notes will be published by the Luxembourg

or on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu);

 

(2)

(e)               
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.

 

(f)                
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to any Holder of an interest
in a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Note
(or its designee), according to the applicable procedures of such Depositary, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice.

 

(g)               
The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon notice, instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured

or directions, subsequent to such transmission of written instructions, shall provide the originally executed instructions or
directions to the Trustee in a timely manner, and (2) such originally executed notice, instructions or directions shall be signed
by an authorized representative of the party providing such notice, instructions or directions. The Trustee shall not be liable
for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reasonable reliance upon and compliance
with such notice, instructions or directions notwithstanding such notice, instructions or directions conflict or are inconsistent
with a subsequent notice, instructions or directions.

 

(h)               
If a notice or communication is sent in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether
or not the addressee receives it.

time.

 

 Section 14.03        Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent.

 

Upon any request
or application by the Company or any Guarantor to the Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Company or such Guarantor,
as the case may be, shall furnish to the Trustee:

 

(1)            
an Officer’s Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements
set forth in Section 14.04) stating that, in the opinion of the signer, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided
for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with; and

 

(2)            
an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which shall include the statements
set forth in Section 14.04) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been
complied with; provided that (A) subject to Section 5.01(c), no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection
with the addition of a Guarantor under this Indenture upon execution and delivery by such Guarantor and the Trustee of a supplemental
indenture to this Indenture, the form of which is attached as Exhibit C and (B) no Opinion of Counsel pursuant to this Section

    105

     

    

 

 Section 14.04        Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion.

 

Each certificate
or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than a certificate provided
pursuant to ‎Section 4.07) shall include:

 

(1)            
a statement that the Person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition;

a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to
enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with (and,
in the case of an Opinion of Counsel, may be limited to reliance on an Officer’s Certificate as to matters of fact); and

 

(4)            
a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

 

 Section 14.05        Currency Indemnity

 

(a)               
U.S. dollars are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Company or the Guarantors under or
in connection with the Notes, this Indenture and the Note Guarantees, including damages. Any amount received or recovered in a
currency other than U.S. dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction,
in the winding-up or dissolution of the Company or any of the Guarantors or otherwise) by any holder of a Note in respect of any
sum expressed to be due to it from the Company or the Guarantors will only constitute a discharge to the Company or the Guarantors,
as the case may be, to the extent of the U.S. dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received
or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase
on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). If that U.S. dollar amount is less than the U.S. dollar
amount expressed to be due to the recipient under any Note, the Company will indemnify such holder against any loss sustained
by it as a result; and if the amount of U.S. dollars so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to such holder, such
holder will promptly remit such excess to the Paying Agent who will in turn remit such amount to the Company. In any event, the
Company will indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase.

 

(b)               
For the purposes of the preceding subsection, it will be sufficient for the holder of a Note to certify in a satisfactory
manner (indicating the sources of information used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of U.S. dollars
been made with the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of U.S. dollars
on such date had not been
practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being required that the need for a change of date be
certified in the manner mentioned above). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations
of the Company and the Guarantors, will give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any
indulgence granted by any holder of a Note and will continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim
or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Note.

 

    106

     

    

 

 Section 14.06        Consent to Jurisdiction and Service; Waiver of Immunities. 

 

In relation
to any legal action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees, the
Company and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. federal and state courts in
the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, County and State of New York, United States of America. Each of the Guarantors
hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Kosmos Energy, LLC as its agent for service of process in any such action.

 

To the extent
that the Company or any Guarantor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process
with respect to itself or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under each of
this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Guarantees and the Security Documents. In addition, the Company and each Guarantor irrevocably
waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim
that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-mentioned courts for any reason whatsoever, that such suit,
action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue for such suit is improper, or that this Indenture,
the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Security Documents or the subject matter hereof or thereof may not be enforced in such courts.

 

The Company
and the Guarantors agree that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced
in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Section 14.07 shall affect
the right of the Trustee to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Trustee to bring
any action or proceeding against the Company or any Guarantor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdictions.

 

 Section 14.07        Rules by Trustee and Agents.

 

The Trustee
may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. The Registrar, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent may make reasonable
rules and set reasonable requirements for its functions.

or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder of the Company or any Guarantor, as such,
shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor (other than the Company in respect of the Notes and
each Guarantor in respect of its Note Guarantee) under the Notes, the Note Guarantees or this Indenture or for any claim based
on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.

 

Each Holder
by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance
of the Notes.

understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry
to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

same agreement.

The Table of
Contents, Cross-Reference Table and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience

Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act.

on the Notes 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 repurchase date, or at the Stated Maturity of the Notes, provided
that no interest will accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, redemption date, repurchase date or
Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as

in a change in the method of calculation of covenants, standards or terms as determined in good faith by the Company, then at
the Company’s election, upon written notice of the Company to the Trustee, such covenants, standards or terms shall be calculated
prior to giving effect to such Accounting Change as if such Accounting Change had not occurred.

the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note,
the 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 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 A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.3 of this Appendix A), a Global
Note may not be transferred except as a whole and not in part if the transfer is by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary
or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee
to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

 

(d) Restrictions
on Transfer of Global Notes; Voluntary Exchange of Interests in Transfer Restricted Global Notes for Interests in Unrestricted

of such interest through a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note shall be made only in accordance with the Applicable
Procedures and the Restricted Notes Legend and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written certification from the transferor of the
beneficial interest in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form of Note in Exhibit A for exchange or registration
of transfers. Such written certification shall no longer be required after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period.
Upon the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note shall

(iii) Upon
the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged
for beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note upon certification in the form provided on the reverse side of the Form
of Note in Exhibit A for an exchange from a Regulation S Global Note to an Unrestricted Global Note.

 

(iv) Beneficial
interests in a Transfer Restricted Note that is a Rule 144A Global Note or an IAI Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial
interests in an Unrestricted Global Note if the Holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such exchange
is in respect of a transfer made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse side of
the Form of Note in Exhibit A) and/or upon delivery of such legal opinions, certifications and other information as the
Company or the Trustee may reasonably request.

 

(v) If no Unrestricted
Global Note is outstanding at the time of a transfer contemplated by the preceding clauses (iii) and (iv), the Company shall issue

Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall
be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee 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 Definitive Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest
in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased 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 Registrar (if it is then the Custodian for such Global
Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Registrar or the Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09,
4.15, 4.16 and 9.05 of this Indenture).

may deem and treat the person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note
is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

beneficial holder thereof, shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar and the Trustee.

all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary
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 Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may

 

    8

     

    

rely and shall
be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial
owners.

 

(ii)  The
Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed
under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers

Global Note deposited with the Depositary or with the Trustee as Custodian pursuant to Section 2.1 may be transferred to
the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of
such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 2.2 of this Appendix A and
(i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Note or
if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and, in each case,

such cessation, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request from
the Depository or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion and subject to the procedures of the Depository, notifies the Trustee
in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes under this Indenture. Any Affiliate of the Company or any
Guarantor that is a beneficial owner of all or part of a Global Note may have such Affiliate’s beneficial interest transferred
to such Affiliate in the form of a Definitive Note by providing a written request to the Company and the Trustee and such Opinions
of Counsel, certificates or other information as may be required by this Indenture or the Company or Trustee.

 

(b)  Any
Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be surrendered by the
Depositary to the Trustee, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive
Notes of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be executed, authenticated
and delivered only in denominations of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and registered in such names
as the Depositary shall direct. Any Definitive Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note that is a Transfer
Restricted Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.2(e) of this Appendix A, bear the Restricted Notes Legend.

no interest has been paid, from and including [●]; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be [●].
The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal
and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it shall pay interest

in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the Notes or of principal, interest or of any other
amount payable under, or with respect to, any of the Notes, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of
Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

OF PAYMENT. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes to the Persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of business
on the March 19 and September 19 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding the related Interest
Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such Record Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided
in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall
be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest
and premium, if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their respective addresses set forth in the Note Register;
provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal, premium,
if any, and interest on all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions

provided in the Security Documents. The Company agrees, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, to the subordination provisions
contained in the Indenture and the Security Documents and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect and appoints the Trustee as

The undersigned
represents and warrants to you that:

 

1. We are
an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), purchasing for our own account or for the account of such an institutional

purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act.
We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
our investment in the Notes, and we invest in or purchase securities similar to the Notes in the normal course of our business.
We, and any accounts for which we are acting, are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment.

 

2. We understand
that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be sold except as permitted

If any resale or other transfer of the Notes is proposed to be made pursuant to clause (e) above prior to the Resale Restriction

purposes and not for distribution in violation of the Securities Act. Each purchaser acknowledges that the Company and the Trustee
reserve the right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes with
respect

 

    B-1

     

    

to applicable
transfers described in the Restricted Notes Legend to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications and/or other
information satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee.
