2012 Cash Incentive Compensation Plan

 Exhibit 10.1 
 2012 Cash Incentive Compensation Plan 
 Eligible Employees: All managers,
directors, vice presidents and senior executives of the Company are eligible for participation in the Company’s 2012 Cash Incentive Compensation Plan. 
 Applicable Period: The 2012 Cash Incentive Program applies to performance during the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. 

Components of the Plan and Criteria to Fund: The 2012 Cash Incentive Compensation Plan consists of the following four components
(1) revenue performance on core products, (2) revenue performance on new products, (3) earnings- per-share, and (4) defined impact goals. Each component of the 2012 Cash Incentive Compensation Plan includes targets at minimum,
plan, and maximum payout. The minimum targets serve as the threshold upon which the incentive pool will begin to fund for that component. Achievement of the components at plan/target will earn the target cash incentive opportunity. Payout will be
calculated along a linear continuum from minimum to plan/target and from plan/target to maximum with the maximum target serving as the point at which the management team will earn the highest possible cash incentive opportunity. 

The minimum performance target must be met in order for a portion of the bonus to be paid relative to any one of the four components. Each component will
be measured separately. Bonus payout to corporate officers (Senior Vice Presidents and above) will be based seventy (70%) percent on achievement of revenue and earnings-per-share goals and thirty (30%) percent on corporate impact goals.
Bonus payout to Vice Presidents and below will be based seventy (70%) percent on achievement of revenue and earnings-per-share goals and thirty (30%) percent on individual impact goals. 

The following table below represents the target bonus and maximum bonus for each of the Company’s Vice Presidents and above and as a percent of such
employee’s annual base salary.

 Exhibit 10.2 
 2012 Employee Deferred Bonus Compensation Program 
 Eligible Employees and Time for
Election: All members of Quidel Corporation’s (the “Company’s”) management review board may elect to participate in this deferred compensation program (this “Program”). Elections must be made and received by the
Company no later than December 23, 2011. After December 23, 2011, all employee elections become irrevocable and may not be withdrawn. 

Bonus Amount to Be Deferred: Eligible employees may elect to receive 50% or 100% of the cash value of his or her 2012 cash bonus (the
“Covered Bonus”) (payable (if applicable) per the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2012 Leadership Incentive Compensation Plan (Cash)) in the form of fully vested, restricted stock units (the “Converted RSUs”)
plus an additional premium on such percentage of the Covered Bonus as additional restricted stock units, which are subject to a one-year vesting requirement (the “Premium RSUs”). 

Applicable Premium: The additional premium applicable to the Premium RSUs shall be determined based on the length of time of the deferral
period (between the date of grant and the date the shares of common stock underlying the RSUs are selected to be issued) selected by the participating employee as follows: (i) if one (1) year from the date of grant, a premium of 10% on the
amount deferred of the Covered Bonus, (ii) if two (2) years from the date of grant, a premium of 20% on the amount deferred of the Covered Bonus, or (iii) if four (4) years from the date of grant, a premium of 30% on the amount
deferred of the Covered Bonus. 
 Vesting Schedule: The Converted RSUs will be fully vested on the grant date. The Premium RSUs
will be fully vested on the first anniversary of the grant date. 
 Issuance of Shares of Common Stock Underlying the RSUs:
Subject to the terms and conditions in the grant award agreement, the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying Converted RSUs will be issued as soon as administratively practicable after the earliest of (1) the end of the
deferral period selected by the participating employee, (2) the participating employee’s separation from service to the Company (as described in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”)
and related guidance thereunder), and (3) a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company (as described in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) and related
guidance thereunder) (a “Change in Control”). The shares of common stock underlying the Premium RSUs will have the same applicable issuance periods as outlined in the foregoing sentence for Converted RSUs with acceleration of the one-year
vesting requirement in connection with a Change in Control, provided, however, that if a participating employee’s service is terminated for any reason (outside of a Change in Control) prior to the one-year vesting requirement, the Premium RSUs
shall be forfeited and cancelled as of the date of such termination of service. 
 Additional Terms and Acknowledgments: Each
participating employee acknowledges and agrees that the awards provided under the Program shall be pursuant to the terms of a Grant Notice and an Award Agreement and further governed by the Program and the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.2012 Equity Incentive Plan Grants to the Company's Executive Officers

 Exhibit 10.3 
 2012 Equity Incentive Plan

 The vesting period for the non-qualified stock options is four years with the first 50% of such stock options vesting at
the end of the second-year anniversary of the grant date and the remainder vesting 25% annually on each of the following two anniversaries thereafter. Vesting for the performance-based restricted stock units has a three-year cliff and is tied to
achievement of a performance metric of compounded annual growth rate in earnings-per-share (EPS) in 2014 compared to a baseline EPS determined by the Compensation Committee for 2011. In addition, in the event that the Company achieves certain
elevated performance metrics prior to the end of the three-year vesting period (defined by the Compensation Committee with pre-determined elevated EPS targets in either 2012 or 2013), the performance-base restricted stock units will be deemed to
have met the performance requirements and will convert to time-based vesting for the remainder of the three-year term.2012 Annual Base Salaries for the Company's Executive Officers

	2.	Exchange Offer 

  

	 	(a)	Unless the Exchange Offer would not be permitted by applicable laws or a policy of the Commission, the Company and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to (i) file an exchange offer registration statement on an appropriate registration form (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) with the Commission with respect to a registered offer to exchange the Notes for
Exchange Notes (the “Exchange Offer”) having identical terms in all material respects to the Notes (except that the Exchange Notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions or interest rate increases as described
in the Indenture) and (ii) cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act by the Effectiveness Target Date. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any conditions, other
than that the Exchange Offer does not violate applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the Commission. 

  

	 	(b)	The Exchange Notes shall be issued under, and entitled to the benefits of, (i) the Indenture or a trust indenture that is identical to the Indenture (other than
such changes as are necessary to comply with the requirements of the Commission to effect or maintain the qualifications thereof under the TIA) and (ii) the Security Documents. 

  
 4 

	 	(c)	Interest on the Exchange Notes and Private Exchange Notes will accrue from the last interest payment due date on which interest was paid on the Notes surrendered in
exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Notes, from the date of original issue of the Notes. Each Exchange Note and Private Exchange Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth thereon. 

 

	 	(d)	The Company will require each Holder as a condition to participation in the Exchange Offer to represent (i) that any Exchange Notes received by it will be acquired
in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) that at the time of the commencement and consummation of the Exchange Offer such Holder has not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) that such Holder is not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of the Company or any
Guarantor, or, if it such an affiliate, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, to the extent applicable to it, and (iv) such Holder is not acting on behalf of any Person who could not
truthfully make the foregoing representations. 

  

	 	(e)	The Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) include within the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan
of Distribution” reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any
broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of Exchange Notes received by such broker-dealer in the Exchange Offer for its own account in exchange for Notes that were acquired by it as a result of
market-making or other trading activity (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment
of the Initial Purchasers based upon advice of counsel, represent the prevailing views of the staff of the Commission. Such “Plan of Distribution” section shall also allow, to the extent permitted by applicable policies and regulations of
the Commission, the use of the Prospectus by all Persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, including, to the extent so permitted, all Participating Broker-Dealers, and shall include a statement describing the
manner in which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Notes. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the Prospectus contained
therein, in order to permit such Prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all Persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such Persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell
the Exchange Notes; provided that such period shall not exceed the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirement of the Securities Act have sold all Exchange Notes held by them (the
“Applicable Period”). 

  

	 	(f)	 If, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer, the Initial Purchasers hold any Notes acquired by them and having the status of an unsold allotment in the
initial distribution, the Company (upon the written request from the Initial Purchasers) shall, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Notes in the Exchange Offer, issue and deliver to the Initial Purchasers, in exchange (the
“Private Exchange”) for the Notes held by the Initial 

  
 5 

	 	
Purchasers, a like principal amount of Senior Secured Notes that are identical to the Exchange Notes except for the existence of restrictions on transfer thereof under the Securities Act and
securities laws of the several states of the United States (the “Private Exchange Notes”) (and which are issued pursuant to the same Indenture as the Exchange Notes). The Private Exchange Notes shall bear the same CUSIP number as
the Exchange Notes, if permitted by the CUSIP Services Bureau. 

  

	 	(g)	In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to, to the extent necessary): 

 

	 	(i)	mail, or cause to be mailed, to each Holder a copy of the Prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of
transmittal that is an exhibit to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any related documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	keep the Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 Business Days after the date that notice thereof is mailed to the Holders (or longer if required by applicable law);

  

	 	(iii)	utilize the services of a depositary for the Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, or in St. Paul, Minnesota which may be
the Trustee or an affiliate thereof; 

  

	 	(iv)	permit Holders to withdraw tendered Registrable Notes at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the last Business Day on which the Exchange Offer shall remain
open; and 

  

	 	(v)	otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable laws related to the Exchange Offer. 

 

	 	(h)	As soon as practicable after the close of the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to, to the
extent necessary): 

  

	 	(i)	accept for exchange all Registrable Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, and not validly withdrawn;

  

	 	(ii)	deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable Notes so accepted for exchange; and 

 

	 	(iii)	cause the Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder tendering such Registrable Notes, Exchange Notes or Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be,
equal in principal amount to the Notes of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 

  

	 	(i)	The Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes may be issued under (i) the Indenture or (ii) an indenture identical to the Indenture (other than such
changes as are necessary to comply with any requirements of the Commission to effect or maintain the qualification thereof under the TIA), which in either event will provide that the Exchange Notes will not be subject to the transfer restrictions
set forth in the Indenture, that the Private Exchange Notes will be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the Indenture, and that the Exchange Notes, the Private Exchange Notes and the Notes, if any, will be deemed one class of security
(subject to the provisions of the Indenture) and entitled to participate in all the security granted by the Company pursuant to the Security Documents and in any Guarantee (as such terms are defined in the Indenture) on an equal and ratable basis.

  
 6 

	 	(j)	If: (i) any changes in law or the applicable interpretations of the staff of the Commission do not permit the Company and the Guarantors to effect the Exchange
Offer; (ii) for any other reason the exchange offer is not consummated within 180 days after the Closing Date; (iii) upon the reasonable request of the Initial Purchasers; or (iv) any Holder of Notes (other than the Initial
Purchasers) is not eligible to participate in the Exchange Offer and, in the case of this clause (iv), such Holder notifies the Company within 30 days of consummation of the Exchange Offer, then the Company shall promptly (and in any event within
five Business Days) deliver to the Holders (or in the case of clause (iv) of this Section 2(j), to any such Holder) and the Trustee notice thereof (the “Shelf Notice”) and file an Initial Shelf Registration pursuant to
Section 3 no later than the Shelf Filing Date. 

  

	3.	Shelf Registration Statement 

 If a Shelf Notice is delivered pursuant to Section 2(j), then this Section 3 shall apply to all Registrable Notes. Otherwise, upon consummation of the Exchange Offer in accordance with
Section 2, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply solely with respect to (i) Notes held by any Holder thereof not permitted by law or the applicable interpretations of the staff of the Commission to participate in the Exchange Offer,
(ii) Notes held by any broker-dealer that acquired such Notes directly from the Company or any of its affiliates and (iii) Exchange Notes that are not freely tradeable as contemplated by Section 2(j)(iv) hereof, provided in each case
that the relevant Holder has duly notified the Company within 30 days of the Exchange Offer as required by Section 2(j)(iv). 
  

	 	(a)	 Initial Shelf Registration Statement. The Company and the Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission a
Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Notes (the “Initial Shelf Registration Statement”). The Company and the Guarantors shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Initial Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Shelf Effectiveness Target Date. The Initial Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-1 or another
appropriate form permitting registration of such Registrable Notes for resale by Holders in the manner or manners reasonably designated by them (including, without limitation, one or more underwritten offerings). The Company and Guarantors shall not
permit any securities other than the Registrable Notes to be included in any Shelf Registration Statement. The Company and the Guarantors shall and use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Initial Shelf Registration Statement effective until
the first anniversary of the Closing Date (subject to extension pursuant to the last sentence of Section 5(w)) (the “Effectiveness Period”), or such shorter period ending when (i) all Registrable Notes covered by the
Initial Shelf Registration Statement have been sold in the manner set forth and as contemplated in the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, (ii) a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Notes covered by and not
sold under the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or an earlier Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act or (iii) there cease to be any outstanding Registrable Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time, the Company may delay the filing of any Shelf Registration Statement or delay or suspend the effectiveness thereof, for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 60
days in any calendar year (each, a “Shelf Suspension Period”), if the Board of Directors of the Company determines reasonably and in good faith that (x) the filing of any such Shelf Registration Statement or the continuing
effectiveness thereof would require the disclosure of non-public material information that, in the 

  
 7 

	 	
reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, would be detrimental to the Company if so disclosed or would otherwise materially adversely affect a financing, acquisition,
disposition, merger or other material transaction or (y) such action is required by applicable law. 

  

	 	(b)	Subsequent Shelf Registration Statements. If the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement (as defined below) ceases to
be effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered thereunder), the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the last sentence of Section 3(a) above,
use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall within 30 days of such cessation of effectiveness amend such Shelf Registration Statement in a manner to
obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the effectiveness thereof, or file (and cause each Guarantor to file) an additional “shelf” Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Notes (a
“Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company and the Guarantors shall, subject to the last sentence of Section 3(a) above, use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable after such filing and to keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for a period equal to the number of
days in the Effectiveness Period less the aggregate number of days during which the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement was previously continuously effective. As used herein the term “Shelf
Registration Statement” means the Initial Shelf Registration Statement and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statements. 

  

	 	(c)	Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall promptly supplement and amend any Shelf Registration Statement if required by the rules, regulations or
instructions applicable to the registration form used for such Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act, or if reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes
covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, only with respect to information relating to such Holders, or by any underwriter of such Registrable Notes. 

  

	 	(d)	Provision of Information. No Holder of Registrable Notes shall be entitled to include any of its Registrable Notes in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant
to this Agreement unless such Holder furnishes to the Company and the Trustee in writing, within 20 days after receipt of a written request therefor, such information as the Company and the Trustee after conferring with counsel with regard to
information relating to Holders that would be required by the Commission to have such Holder’s Registrable Notes be included in such Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein, may reasonably request for inclusion in any Shelf
Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein, and no such Holder shall be entitled to benefit from the provisions regarding Additional Interest pursuant to Section 4 hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided such
information. 

  

	4.	Additional Interest 

  

	 	(a)	 The Company and each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Holders of Registrable Notes will suffer damages if the Company or any Guarantor fails
to fulfill its material obligations under Section 2 or Section 3 hereof and that it would not be feasible to ascertain 

  
 8 

	 	
the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, the Company and the Guarantors agree to pay additional cash interest on the Notes (“Additional Interest”) under the
circumstances and to the extent set forth below (each of which shall be given independent effect): 

  

	 	(i)	 If the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date, Additional Interest shall
accrue on the Registrable Notes outstanding over and above any stated interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date, such Additional Interest
rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; 

  

	 	(ii)	if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the Effectiveness Target Date, Additional Interest shall accrue
on the Registrable Notes outstanding over and above any stated interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the Effectiveness Target Date, such Additional Interest rate
increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; or 

  

	 	(iii)	if the Exchange Offer is not consummated and no Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective on or prior to the Shelf Effectiveness Target Date, Additional
Interest shall accrue on the Registrable Notes outstanding over and above any stated interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the Shelf Effectiveness Target Date,
such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional 0.25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; 

 provided, however, that Additional Interest will not accrue under more than one of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) at any one time; and provided, further that the maximum
Additional Interest rate on the Registrable Notes outstanding may not exceed at any one time in the aggregate 1.00% per annum; provided further, that upon (x) the filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in the case of
clause (i) above), (y) the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (in the case of clause (ii) above) or (z) the consummation of the Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement, as the
case may be (in the case of clause (iii) above), Additional Interest on the Notes as a result of such clause shall cease to accrue if the Company and Guarantors are otherwise in compliance with this Section 4(a); provided,
however, that if, after any such reduction in interest rate, a different event specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above occurs, Additional Interest may again accrue on the Registrable Notes pursuant to this Section 4(a).
Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 4, the Company shall not be obligated to pay Additional Interest provided in Section 4(a) during any Shelf Suspension Period permitted by Section 3(a) hereof. 

 

	 	(b)	 The Company shall notify the Trustee within three Business Days after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which Additional
Interest is required to be paid (an “Event Date”). Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clause (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of this Section 4 will be paid by the Company and the Guarantors in accordance with the
Indenture on the next scheduled interest payment date, commencing with the first such semi-annual date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue. The 

  
 9 

	 	
amount of Additional Interest will be determined by the Company by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Notes, multiplied by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and, in the case of a partial month, the actual number of days
elapsed), and the denominator of which is 360. 

  

	5.	Registration Procedures 

 In connection with the filing of any Registration Statement pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) effect such registrations to permit the sale of
such securities covered thereby in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto and in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company hereunder, the Company shall (and shall cause each
Guarantor to): 
  

	 	(a)	Prepare and file with the Commission the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or if the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not filed because of the circumstances
contemplated by Section 2(j), a Shelf Registration Statement as prescribed by Section 3, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein;
provided that, if (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3 or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under
the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, before filing any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto the Company shall
(and shall cause each Guarantor to), if requested, furnish to and afford the Holders of the Registrable Notes to be registered pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, each Participating Broker-Dealer, the managing underwriters, if any, and
each of their respective counsel, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such documents (including copies of any documents to be incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed (in each case at least five
Business Days prior to such filing). The Company and each Guarantor shall not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto in respect of which the Holders must provide information for the inclusion
therein without the Holders being afforded an opportunity to review such documentation if the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement, or any such Participating
Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriters, if any, or any of their respective counsel shall reasonably object in writing on a timely basis. A Holder shall be deemed to have reasonably objected to such filing if such Registration
Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as applicable, as proposed to be filed, contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or fails to comply
with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act. 

  

	 	(b)	Provide an indenture trustee for the Registrable Notes, the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and cause the Indenture (or other
indenture relating to the Registrable Notes) to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement; and in connection therewith, to effect such changes to such indenture as may be required for such
indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA; and execute, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, and all other forms and
documents required to be filed with the Commission to enable such indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner. 

  
 10 

	 	(c)	Prepare and file with the Commission such pre-effective amendments and post-effective amendments to each Shelf Registration Statement or Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, as the case may be, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for the Effectiveness Period or the Applicable Period, as the case may be; cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any
Prospectus supplement required by applicable law, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) promulgated under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act applicable to them with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented and with respect to the subsequent resale of any securities being sold by
a Participating Broker-Dealer covered by any such Prospectus. The Company and each Guarantor shall not, during the Applicable Period, voluntarily take any action that would result in selling Holders of the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration
Statement or Participating Broker-Dealers seeking to sell Exchange Notes not being able to sell such Registrable Notes or such Exchange Notes during that period, unless such action is required by applicable law, rule or regulation or permitted by
this Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	Furnish to such selling Holders and Participating Broker-Dealers who so request in writing (i) upon the Company’s receipt, a copy of the order of the
Commission declaring such Registration Statement and any post effective amendment thereto effective, (ii) such reasonable number of copies of such Registration Statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including any
documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits), (iii) such reasonable number of copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus) and each amendment and supplement thereto,
and such reasonable number of copies of the final Prospectus as filed by the Company and each Guarantor pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and each amendment and supplement
thereto, and (iv) such other documents (including any amendments required to be filed pursuant to clause (c) of this Section), as any such Person may reasonably request in writing. The Company and the Guarantors hereby consent to the use
of the Prospectus by each of the selling Holders of Registrable Notes or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, and the underwriters or agents, if any, and dealers, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the
Registrable Notes covered by, or the sale by Participating Broker-Dealers of the Exchange Notes pursuant to, such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto. 

 

	 	(e)	 If (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration
Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period relating thereto, the Company shall notify in writing
the selling Holders of Registrable Notes, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the managing underwriters, if any, and each of their respective counsel promptly (but in any event within two Business Days) (i) when a
Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective (including in such notice a written statement that
any Holder may, upon request, obtain, without charge, one conformed copy of such Registration Statement or post-effective amendment including financial statements and schedules, documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference and
exhibits), (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any Prospectus or the initiation of any proceedings for that
purpose, (iii) if at any time when a Prospectus is required by the 

  
 11 

	 	
Securities Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Registrable Notes the representations and warranties of the Company and any Guarantor contained in any agreement (including any
underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 5(n) hereof cease to be true and correct, (iv) of the receipt by the Company or any Guarantor of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from
qualification of a Registration Statement or any of the Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer for offer or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose,
(v) of the happening of any event, the existence of any condition of any information becoming known that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in, or amendments or supplements to, such Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (vi) of any reasonable
determination by the Company or any Guarantor that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate and (vii) of any request by the Commission for amendments to the Registration Statement or supplements to the
Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto. 

  

	 	(f)	Use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or
suspending the use of a Prospectus or suspending the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Notes or the Exchange Notes to be sold by any Participating Broker-Dealer, for sale in any jurisdiction, and, if any such
order is issued, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible date. 

  

	 	(g)	If (A) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, (B) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period or (C) reasonably requested in writing by the managing
underwriters, if any, or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being sold in connection with an underwritten offering, (i) promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
such information or revisions to information therein relating to such underwriters or selling Holders as the managing underwriters, if any, or such Holders or any of their respective counsel reasonably request in writing to be included or made
therein and (ii) make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplements or
post-effective amendment. 

  

	 	(h)	 Prior to any public offering of Registrable Notes or any delivery of a Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement by any
Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify, and to cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Notes or each such Participating
Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes, as the
case may be, for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within 

  
 12 

	 	
the United States as any selling Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer or any managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, reasonably request in writing; provided, that where Exchange Notes
held by Participating Broker-Dealers or Registrable Notes are offered other than through an underwritten offering, the Company and each Guarantor agree to cause its counsel to perform Blue Sky investigations and file any registrations and
qualifications required to be filed pursuant to this Section 5(h), keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective and do any and all
other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Exchange Notes held by Participating Broker-Dealers or the Registrable Notes covered by the applicable Registration Statement;
provided that neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general service of
process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or (C) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

 

	 	(i)	If (A) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3 or (B) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is requested to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Notes and the
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Notes to be sold, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in a form eligible for
deposit with The Depository Trust Company, and enable such Registrable Notes to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or Holders may reasonably request. 

 

	 	(j)	Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Notes covered by any Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such governmental
agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter, if any, to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Notes, except as may be required solely as a consequence of the nature of such selling
Holder’s business, in which case the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) cooperate in all reasonable respects with the filing of such Registration Statement and the granting of such approvals; provided that neither the Company nor
any existing Guarantor shall be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it is
not then so subject or (C) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

  

	 	(k)	 If (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration
Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by
paragraph 5(e)(v) or 5(e)(vi) hereof, as promptly as practicable, prepare and file with the Commission, at the expense of the Company and the Guarantors, a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the
related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchaser of the Registrable Notes being sold thereunder or to the
purchaser of the Exchange Notes to whom such Prospectus will be delivered by a Participating Broker-Dealer, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to

  
 13 

	 	
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, if Commission
review is required, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective Commission as soon as possible. 

 

	 	(l)	Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement to be rated with such appropriate rating agencies, if so
requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any. 

 

	 	(m)	Prior to the initial issuance of the Exchange Notes, (i) provide the Trustee with one or more certificates for the Registrable Notes in a form eligible for deposit
with The Depository Trust Company and (ii) provide a CUSIP number for the Exchange Notes. 

  

	 	(n)	If a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement in form, scope and substance as
is customary in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances) and take all such other actions in connection therewith (including those reasonably requested in writing by the managing
underwriters, if any, or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being sold) in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of such Registrable Notes, and in such connection, whether
or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or not the registration is an Underwritten Registration, (i) make such representations and warranties to the Holders and the underwriters, if any, with respect to the business of the
Company and its subsidiaries as then conducted, and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by
issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances, and confirm the same if and when reasonably required; (ii) obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and
the Guarantors and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters, if any, and the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes
being sold), addressed to each selling Holder and each of the underwriters, if any, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors requested in underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to
the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances; (iii) obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof (which letters and updates (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters)
from the independent certified public accountants of the Company and the Guarantors (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which
financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed to each of the underwriters, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in
“cold comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings of debt securities similar to the Notes, as may be appropriate in the circumstances, and such other matters as reasonably requested in writing by the underwriters; and
(iv) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested in writing by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being sold and the managing underwriters, if any, to evidence the
continued validity of the representations and warranties of the Company and its subsidiaries made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with any conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other similar agreement
entered into by the Company or any Guarantor. 

  
 14 

	 	(o)	If (1) a Shelf Registration Statement is filed pursuant to Section 3, or (2) a Prospectus contained in an Exchange Offer Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2 is required to be delivered under the Securities Act by any Participating Broker-Dealer who seeks to sell Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, make available for inspection by any selling Holder of such Registrable
Notes being sold, or each such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, any underwriter participating in any such disposition of Registrable Notes, if any, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such selling Holder or

employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to supply all information reasonably requested in writing by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement. Each Inspector shall agree in writing that it will keep the Records
confidential and not disclose any of the Records unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement, (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to
a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, (iii) the information in such Records is public or has been made generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by such
Inspector or (iv) disclosure of such information is, in the reasonable written opinion of counsel for any Inspector, necessary or advisable in connection with any action, claim, suit or proceeding, directly or indirectly, involving or
potentially involving such Inspector and arising out of, based upon, related to, or involving this Agreement, or any transaction contemplated hereby or arising hereunder. Each such Inspector shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to
protect the confidentiality of such information to the extent such action is not inconsistent with the rights and interests of the Holder or any Inspector. Each selling Holder of such Registrable Notes and each such Participating Broker-Dealer will
be required to agree that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it as the basis for any market transactions in the securities of the Company unless and until such is made
generally available to the public. Each Inspector, each selling Holder of such Registrable Notes and each such Participating Broker-Dealer will be required to further agree that it will, upon learning of the potential disclosure of such Records,
give notice to the Company and, to the extent practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential at its expense.

  

	 	(p)	Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and make generally available to the security holders of the Company with regard to any Applicable
Registration Statement earning statements satisfying the provisions of section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act) no later than 45 days after the end of any 12-month period
(or 90 days after the end of any 12-month period if such period is a fiscal year) (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registrable Notes are sold to underwriters in a firm commitment or best efforts underwritten offering and
(ii) if not sold to underwriters in such an offering, commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company after the effective date of a Registration Statement, which statements shall cover said 12-month periods.

  

	 	(q)	 Upon consummation of an Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, obtain an opinion of counsel to the Company and the Guarantors (in form, scope and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers), addressed to the Trustee for the benefit of all Holders participating in the Exchange Offer or Private Exchange, as the case may be, to the effect

  
 15 

	 	
that (i) the Company and the Guarantors have duly authorized, executed and delivered the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and the Indenture, (ii) the
Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, and the Indenture constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, enforceable against the Company and the Guarantors in accordance with their
respective terms, except as such enforcement may be subject to customary United States and foreign exceptions and (iii) all obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may
be, and the Indenture are secured by Liens (as defined in the Indenture) on the assets securing the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the Notes, Indenture and Security Documents to the extent and as discussed in the Registration
Statement. 

  

	 	(r)	If the Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Registrable Notes by the Holders to the Company and the Guarantors (or to such
other Person as directed by the Company and the Guarantors) in exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, the Company and the Guarantors shall mark, or caused to be marked, on such Registrable Notes that the
Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, are being issued as substitute evidence of the indebtedness originally evidenced by the Registrable Notes; provided that in no event shall such Registrable Notes be marked as
paid or otherwise satisfied. 

  

	 	(s)	Cooperate with each seller of Registrable Notes covered by any Registration Statement and each underwriter, if any, participating in the disposition of such Registrable
Notes and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA. 

  

	 	(t)	Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which similar
debt securities issued by the Company are then listed.

information regarding such seller or Participating Broker-Dealer and the distribution of such Registrable Notes as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably request in writing. The Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable
Notes of any seller who fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time (which time in no event shall exceed 45 days, subject to Section 3(d) hereof) after receiving such request. Each seller of Registrable Notes or Participating
Broker-Dealer as to which any registration is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished by such seller not materially misleading.

  

	 	(w)	 Each Holder of Registrable Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes to be sold by
such Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 5(e)(ii), 5(e)(iv), 5(e)(v), or 5(e)(vi), such Holder will forthwith
discontinue disposition of such Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement and such Participating Broker-Dealer will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Exchange Notes pursuant to any Prospectus and, in each case, forthwith

  
 16 

	 	
discontinue dissemination of such Prospectus until such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by
Section 5(k), or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company and the Guarantors that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any amendments or supplements thereto and, if
so directed by the Company and the Guarantors, such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer, as the case may be, will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s
possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Notes current at the time of the receipt of such notice. In the event the Company and the Guarantors shall give any such notice, the Applicable Period shall be extended by the number of days
during such periods from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received (x) the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by
Section 5(k) or (y) the Advice. 

  

	6.	Registration Expenses 

  

	 	(a)	All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company and the Guarantors shall be borne by the Company and the

Section 6(a) above. The Company and the Guarantors shall pay all documentary, stamp, transfer or other transactional taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery of the Exchange Notes or Private Exchange Notes in exchange for the Notes;
provided that the Company shall not be required to pay taxes payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any Exchange Note or Private Exchange Note in a name other than that of the Holder of the Note in respect
of which such Exchange Note or Private Exchange Note is being issued. The Company and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Holders for fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Holders) relating to any enforcement of
any rights of the Holders under this Agreement. 

  

	7.	Indemnification 

  

	 	(a)	Indemnification by the Company and the Guarantors. The Company and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of
Registrable Notes, Exchange Notes or Private Exchange Notes and each Participating Broker-Dealer selling Exchange Notes during the Applicable Period, each Person, if any, who controls each such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors and partners of each such Holder, Participating Broker-Dealer and controlling person, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees as provided in this Section 7) and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable costs and expenses incurred
in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending against any of the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with
any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such Losses are solely based upon information
relating to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer and furnished in writing to the Company and the Guarantors by such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer or their counsel expressly for use therein. The Company and the Guarantors also agree to
indemnify underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their officers, directors, agents and employees and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning
of Section 5 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders or the Participating Broker-Dealer. 

 

	 	(b)	 Indemnification by Holder. In connection with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto,
or any preliminary prospectus in which a Holder is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company and the Guarantors in writing such information as the Company and the Guarantors reasonably

  
 18 

	 	
request for use in connection with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus and shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors, officers and each Person, if any, who controls the Company and the Guarantors (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act),
and the directors, officers and partners of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against all Losses arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any
Registration Statement, Prospectus or form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus
or form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Losses are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, unappealable order to have resulted
solely from an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in or omitted from any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company and the Guarantors
expressly for use therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, any legal or other expenses incurred by the Company and the Guarantors or any such director, officer or person who
controls the Company and the Guarantors in connection with any Losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the liability of any selling Holder be greater in amount than such Holder’s Maximum Contribution Amount (as defined below).

  

	 	(c)	Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
“Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the party or parties from which such indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party” or “Indemnifying Parties”, as applicable) in
writing; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party (i) will not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a result
thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligations to any Indemnified Party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) above. 

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party, within 20 Business Days after
receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such proceeding, to assume, at its expense, the defense of any such proceeding; provided, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses; or
(2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such proceeding or shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; or (3) the named parties to any such proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or any of its affiliates or controlling persons, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more defenses
available to such Indemnified Party that are in addition to, or in conflict with, those defenses available to the Indemnifying Party or such affiliate or controlling person (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Parties
in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties, the Indemnifying Parties shall not have the right to assume the defense and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
the Indemnifying Party; it being understood, however, that, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same
general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for such Indemnified Party). 

  
 19 

 No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any such proceeding effected
without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such proceeding, each Indemnifying Party jointly and severally agrees, subject
to the exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any
judgment or enter into any settlement unless such judgment or settlement (i) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Indemnified Party, from all liability in respect of such proceeding for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto) and (ii) does not include a
statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party. 
  

	 	(d)	Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party
harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section 7 would otherwise apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this Section 7), then each applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such
Indemnified Party, shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such
Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent any such statement or omission. The amount
paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding, to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such
fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or 7(b) was available to such party. 

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation or by other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7(d), a selling Holder shall not
be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of such Holder’s Maximum Contribution Amount. A selling Holder’s “Maximum Contribution Amount” shall equal the excess of (i) the aggregate proceeds
received by such Holder pursuant to the sale of such Registrable Notes or Exchange Notes over (ii) the aggregate amount of damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of the Registrable Securities held by each Holder hereunder and not joint. The
Company’s and Guarantors’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7(d) are joint and several. 

  
 20 

 The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 are in addition
to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties. 
  

	8.	Rules 144 and 144A 

  

	 	(a)	The Company covenants that it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) file the reports required to be filed by it (if so required) under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Registrable Notes, make publicly available other information necessary to
permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 and 144A and (b) take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request in writing, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Notes without registration under
the Securities Act pursuant to the exemptions provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such information and requirements.

  

	 	(b)	Availability of Rule 144 Not Excuse for Obligations under Section 2. The fact that holders of Registrable Notes may become eligible to sell such Registrable
Notes pursuant to Rule 144 shall not (1) cause such Notes to cease to be Registrable Notes or (2) excuse the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement, including without limitation
the obligations in respect of an Exchange Offer, Shelf Registration and Additional Interest. 

  

	9.	Underwritten Registrations of Registrable Notes 

 If any of the Registrable Notes covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will manage
the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Registrable Notes included in such offering; provided, however, that such investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers
must be reasonably acceptable to the Company. 
 No Holder of Registrable Notes may participate in any underwritten registration
hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Notes on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and
executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
  

	10.	Miscellaneous 

  

	 	(a)	Remedies. In the event of a breach by either the Company or any of the Guarantors of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each Holder, in
addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein, in the Indenture or, in the case of the Initial Purchasers, in the Purchase Agreement, or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of
its rights under this Agreement. The Company and the Guarantors agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by either the Company or any of the Guarantors of any of the provisions of
this Agreement and hereby further agree that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, the Company shall (and shall cause each Guarantor to) waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

  
 21 

	 	(b)	No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company and each of the Guarantors have not entered, as of the date hereof, and the Company and each of the Guarantors shall not
enter, after the date of this Agreement, into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The
Company and each of the Guarantors have not entered and will not enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that will grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration Statement. 

 

	 	(c)	Adjustments Affecting Registrable Notes. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect to the Registrable Notes as a class that
would adversely affect the ability of the Holders to include such Registrable Notes in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may not be given, otherwise than with the prior written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Registrable Notes in circumstances that would adversely affect any Holders of
Registrable Notes; provided, however, that Section 7 and this Section 10(d) may not be amended, modified or supplemented without the prior written consent of each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to
depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Registrable Notes whose securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer or sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement
and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Registrable Notes may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Notes being tendered or
being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. 

  

	 	(e)	Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, registered first-class mail,
