herein, if such default continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is given by Rancon to Glenborough; provided however, that if a default is curable only within a period of time longer than thirty (30) days, then

of time; (d) the performance by Glenborough of any act with respect to the Property which is materially detrimental to Rancon and outside the scope of Glenborough’s rights or obligations hereunder, unless authorized by Rancon. An event of cause

 3.1.1 Performance Standards. Unless otherwise expressly stated to the contrary,
Glenborough is only obligated to perform Services in accordance with sound and professional real estate and asset management and brokerage practices and techniques, consistent with professional standards prevailing in the region where the Property
is located. Glenborough’s agreement to perform any of the Services does not constitute, and is not intended to be, a representation, warranty or guarantee by Glenborough that the contemplated Services will occur, but only that Glenborough will
exercise professional efforts to accomplish such Services. Glenborough is not, in the performance of the Services, guaranteeing or warranting the performance of other persons who may render Services, e.g., a design professional(s), a service
contractor(s) or construction contractors or suppliers. In no event shall Glenborough be obligated to take any act, or omit to take an act, that it deems in good faith to be illegal or which might result in injury to any person. 
  
 3.1.2 Conformance with Business Plan. Glenborough
shall perform the Services in an efficient and satisfactory manner in conformance with the Business Plan (described below) and this Agreement. Glenborough shall undertake all activities reasonably necessary to implement the approved Business Plan,

plan of the Administration and Consulting services to be provided to Rancon. Rancon shall have a reasonable period of time after Glenborough’s delivery to Rancon of the proposed Business Plan to approve or disapprove such Business Plan, which
approval or disapproval may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Rancon disapproves the Plan, Rancon shall specify in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval. Glenborough shall promptly revise the Business Plan as may be necessary
to address the reasons for the disapproval and shall resubmit the Business Plan to Rancon for approval. All references to the Business Plan hereinafter used in this Agreement shall mean the approved Business Plan. Should the year for which an
approved Business Plan expire before a Business Plan for the next year is approved, Glenborough shall continue to provide the Services under the last approved Business Plan, as reasonably applicable, until a new Business Plan is approved or this
Agreement terminates. 
  
 3.2.2 Glenborough shall
use diligent and reasonable efforts to ensure that the actual costs of the Services do not exceed the operating budget which is a part of the approved Business Plan (the “Operating Budget”), in total. Subject to the provisions hereof,
Glenborough shall have the authority, without Rancon’s prior written consent, to expend sums up to and including $50,000 and undertake such activities as are expressly authorized in the Business Plan or in this Agreement. 
  
 3.2.3 Glenborough shall inform Rancon of any major
anticipated increases or decreases in costs, expenses, income or capital expenditures that were not reflected in the Business Plan. Glenborough shall cooperate with Rancon to prepare reasonable periodic forecasts of operations for the balance of the

physical damage and against liability for loss, damage or injury to property or persons which might arise in connection with the business of Rancon or ownership or occupancy of the Property. The types and amounts of such insurance shall be
determined by Rancon in the exercise of its reasonable discretion based upon recommendations by Glenborough. The insurance described in this Section 5.1 may be carried under a policy or policies covering other property managed by Glenborough,
provided that such policy or policies do not reduce the amount and type of coverage required by Rancon pursuant to this Section. Rancon shall indemnify, defend and hold Glenborough harmless from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses,
damages, fines, penalties, liabilities, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court costs on account of any loss, damage or injury covered by a Rancon policy, provided:

becomes aware of any such loss, damage or injury; 
  
 5.1.2 Glenborough and Glenborough’s employees, contractors and agents take no action (such as admission of liability) which bars Rancon from obtaining any protection afforded by any policy Rancon may hold or which prejudices Rancon in
its defense of a claim based on such loss, damage or injury; and 
  
 5.1.3 Such loss, damage or injury does not arise out of any gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of obligation under this Agreement by Glenborough or its employees, officers or directors or out of any acts
performed by Glenborough or its employees, officers or directors outside the scope of its authority under this Agreement. 
  
 Subject to the approval of the appropriate insurance carrier, Glenborough shall assist Rancon in the defense of any claim, demand or suit
arising out of any such loss, damage or injury.

way of subrogation or otherwise with respect to any claims or losses that are insured under such policy. Rancon and Glenborough hereby release each other from all rights of recovery under or through subrogation or otherwise for any and all losses

exchange or purchase by Rancon of any property or interest in any property, Rancon shall pay Glenborough a Sales Fee of 2% on improved property and 4% on unimproved property. A parcel of real property shall be deemed unimproved for purposes of this
section if it is not improved by a completed permanent building. A Sales Fee shall be calculated on the gross sales price (if Rancon is the seller) or purchase price (if Rancon is the buyer); provided, however, in no event shall the fee under this
provision when added to commissions paid by Rancon to any and all persons employed in connection with the sale, exchange or purchase of any property (whether by Rancon, Glenborough or third parties) in connection with the sale, exchange or purchase

excluding any increases in payments which cannot be calculated at the time of entry into the lease and excluding any option periods, discounted at the interest rate on five year treasury notes, or other comparable indices if five year treasury notes
are no longer customarily quoted (“Discount Index”), prevailing on the date of entry into the lease, shall be deemed the purchase price on which the Sales Fee shall be computed. The exercise by Rancon of any option to purchase and the
consummation of such purchase, whether or not related to any lease, shall be deemed a separate transaction for purposes of the application and computation of the Sales Fee under this section. No Sales Fee shall be due on transactions that commence
after December 31, 2005 unless otherwise agreed in writing by Rancon and Glenborough. 
  
 (2) Finance Services: if Rancon requests Finance Services from Glenborough, then, upon the financing or refinancing of a Property,

payroll taxes, insurance, workers’ compensation, travel, all office expenses, and other fringe benefits of those field property management and maintenance personnel of Glenborough engaged with respect to the Property and personnel who provide
services customarily provided at the Property. If any field property management or maintenance personnel of Glenborough are independent contractors of Glenborough, then Rancon shall similarly reimburse Glenborough for those independent contractors
engaged with the respect to the Property who provide such services. The employees’ salaries and costs of independent contractors of Glenborough which constitute reimbursable operating expenses shall be allocated between Rancon and all other
entities benefiting from the services of such employees on a pro rata, equitable basis. 
  
 7.2 Joint Ventures. References herein to the Property, or interest therein, acquired, owned or disposed of by Rancon shall include Rancon’s interest from time to time in any property held by any joint
venture, partnership or other entity or form of ownership in which Rancon has an interest (“Rancon’s

 ANNEX 1 
  
 S&S Draft 
 September 28, 2004 
  
 DESCRIPTION OF NOTES 
  
 You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description under
the subheading “Certain Definitions.” In this description, the word “Company” refers only to ASG Holdings LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on
                    , 2004, and prior to such date, refers to American Seafoods Group LLC, and, in each case, not to any of their
subsidiaries. The word the “Issuers” refers only to ASG Holdings LLC and its wholly-owned corporate subsidiary and co-obligor on the Notes, ASG Finance, Inc. (“ASG Finance”).  
  
 The Issuers will issue the Notes under an Indenture (the
“Indenture”) among themselves and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), in a private transaction that is not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act. See “Notice to
Investors.” The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”). 
  
 The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the
Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement. It does not restate those agreements in their entirety. We urge you to read the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement because they, and not this description, define your rights as holders of
the Notes. Certain defined terms used in this description but not defined below under “—Certain Definitions” have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
  
 Brief Description of the Notes 
  
 The Notes will be unsecured senior obligations of the Issuers. The Notes will rank pari passu in right of
payment with all existing and future senior unsecured Indebtedness of the Issuers, including their guarantee of the Credit Agreement, and senior in right of payment to any future unsecured subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers. The Notes will be
effectively subordinated to secured Indebtedness of the Issuers to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such Indebtedness. As of June 30, 2004, after giving pro forma effect to the offering of the Notes, the Issuers’ only
outstanding Indebtedness (other than the Notes) would have consisted of their guarantee of $         million of borrowings by the Company’s Subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement. At such date,
there would have been approximately $         million of additional borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement, which amounts would be guaranteed by the Issuers. The Issuers’ guarantee of
borrowings under the Credit Agreement is secured by all the Issuers’ assets, consisting of the outstanding Capital Stock of American Seafoods Group. 
  
 The Company is a holding company and does not have any material assets or operations other than the ownership of Capital Stock of American Seafoods Group
and ASG Finance. ASG Finance is a shell company and does not have any assets or operations. All of the Company’s operations are conducted through its Subsidiaries. Claims of creditors of such Subsidiaries, including trade creditors, and claims
of preferred stockholders (if any) of such Subsidiaries generally will have priority with respect to the assets and earnings of such Subsidiaries over the claims of the Company’s creditors, including Holders of the Notes. The Notes, therefore,
will be structurally subordinated to creditors (including trade creditors) of the Company’s Subsidiaries, other than ASG Finance. As of June 30, 2004, the Company’s Subsidiaries had approximately
$         million of Indebtedness and other balance sheet liabilities outstanding and there was approximately $         million of additional borrowing
availability under the Credit Agreement. 

 Although the Indenture limits the incurrence of Indebtedness and the issuance of preferred stock by the
Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries, such limitation is subject to a number of significant exceptions. Moreover, the Indenture does not impose any limitation on the incurrence by the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries of liabilities that are
not considered Indebtedness under the Indenture. See “Risk Factors – Risk Relating to the Notes.” The Issuers are the sole obligors of the Notes, and HoldCo LLC’s subsidiaries, including American Seafoods Group, will not
guarantee the Issuers’ obligations under the Notes or have any obligation with respect to the Notes and as such, the Notes will be structurally subordinated to the debt and liabilities of HoldCo LLC’s subsidiaries (including American
Seafoods Group LLC). 
  
 Since the Company’s operations are
conducted through its Subsidiaries, its ability to make payment on the Notes is dependent on the earnings of, and the distribution of funds from, its Subsidiaries. However, other than ASG Finance which does not have any assets or operations, none of
the Company’s Subsidiaries is obligated to make funds available to the Issuers for payment on the Notes. In addition, the terms of the Credit Agreement and the indenture (the “ASG Subordinated Notes Indenture”) governing the 10 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2010 issued by American Seafoods Group (the “ASG Subordinated Notes”)
significantly restrict American Seafoods Group and its Subsidiaries from paying dividends and otherwise transferring assets to the Company. The Credit Agreement is expected to mature before cash interest is scheduled to be paid on the Notes, but it
could be refinanced with another credit facility which contains similar restrictions and the ASG Subordinated Note Indenture will still be in effect and may not permit distributions to the Company in amounts sufficient to pay cash interest on the
notes. Furthermore, the Indenture permits the Company’s Subsidiaries to incur additional Indebtedness that may also restrict or prohibit the making of distributions, the payment of dividends or the making of loans by such Subsidiaries to the
Company. See “Risk Factors – Risk Relating to the Notes.” We are a holding company and rely on dividends, interest and other payments, advances and transfers of funds from our subsidiaries to meet our debt service and other
obligations. 
  
 Principal, Maturity and
Interest 
  
 The Indenture provides for the issuance by the
Issuers of Notes with an unlimited principal amount, of which $         million aggregate principal amount at maturity will be issued in this offering. The Issuers may issue additional notes (the
“Additional Notes”) from time to time after this offering. Any offering of Additional Notes is subject to the covenant described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock.” The Notes and any Additional Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture would be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to
purchase. The Issuers will issue Notes in denominations of $1,000 principal amount at maturity and integral multiples thereof. The Notes will mature on October     , 2011. 
  
 The Notes will be issued at a substantial discount from their principal
amount at maturity. Interest will accrue on the Notes at the rate of     % per annum in the form of an increase in the Accreted Value (representing amortization of original issue discount) between the date of original
issuance and October _, 2008, on a semi-annual basis using a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months, such that the Accreted Value shall be equal to the full principal amount at maturity of the Notes on October
    , 2008 (the “Full Accretion Date”). Beginning on the Full Accretion Date, cash interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of     % per annum and will be payable semiannually in
arrears on              and              of each year to Holders of record at the close of business on the
             or              immediately preceding such interest payment dates, commencing
                    , 2009. 

 Although no cash interest will accrue on the Notes prior to the Full Accretion Date, for U.S. federal
income tax purposes a significant amount of original issue discount, taxable as ordinary income, will be recognized by a Holder as such discount accretes. See “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” for a discussion regarding the
taxation of such original issue discount. 
  
 Methods of Receiving Payments on the Notes 
  
 If a
Holder has given wire transfer instructions to the Company, the Issuers will pay all principal, interest and premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on that Holder’s Notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on Notes will
be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York unless the Issuers elect to make interest payments by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders.

  
 Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes

  
 The Trustee will initially act as Paying Agent and Registrar.
The Issuers may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders, and the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
  
 Transfer and Exchange 
  
 A Holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuers are not required to transfer or exchange
any Note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuers are not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. 
  
 The registered Holder of a Note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
  
 Optional Redemption 
  
 At any time prior to October     , 2007, the
Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount at maturity of Notes issued under the Indenture at a redemption price of     % of the Accreted Value at the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid Liquidated
Damages, if any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that: 
  

	 	(1)	at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount at maturity of Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding
Notes held by either of the Issuers and their respective Subsidiaries); and 

  

	 	(2)	the redemption must occur within 45 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

 Except pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Notes will not be redeemable at the Issuers’ option
prior to October     , 2008. On or after October     , 2008, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices
(expressed as percentages of principal amount at maturity) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on
             of the years indicated below: 
  

				
	 Year

	  	Percentage

	 
	 2008
	  	 	%
	 2009
	  	 	%
	 2010 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

  
 Mandatory Redemption 
  
 The Issuers are not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund
payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 Repurchase at the Option of Holders

  
 Change of Control 
  
 If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of Notes will have the right to
require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 principal amount at maturity or an integral multiple thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth in the Indenture. In the Change
of Control Offer, the Company will offer a Change of Control Payment in cash equal to 101% of the Accreted Value of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, thereon, to the date of purchase. Within ten days
following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in such
notice, which date shall be no earlier than 45 days and no later than 75 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. The Company will comply with the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that
the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations
under the Change of Control provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such conflict. 
  
 On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 
  

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

  

	 	(2)	deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and 

  

	 	(3)	deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount at maturity of Notes or
portions thereof being purchased by the Company. 

  
 The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note
equal in principal amount at maturity to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount at maturity of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. The Company will publicly
announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 

 The Credit Agreement prohibits the Company from purchasing any Notes, and also provides that certain
change of control events with respect to the Company or American Seafoods Group would constitute a default under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement and the ASG Subordinated Notes Indenture also restrict the ability of American Seafoods Group
to pay dividends or make other distributions to the Company in order to fund the Company’s purchase of any Notes tendered. Any future credit agreements or other agreements relating to Indebtedness to which American Seafoods Group or any other
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company becomes a party may contain similar restrictions and provisions. In the event a Change of Control occurs at a time when the Company is prohibited from purchasing Notes or American Seafoods Group or any other
Restricted Subsidiary is prohibited from paying dividends to fund the purchase of any Notes tendered, the Company could seek the consent of the lenders or creditors to the purchase of Notes or could attempt to refinance the Indebtedness that
contains such prohibition. If the Company does not obtain such a consent or repay such Indebtedness, the Company will be unable to purchase any tendered Notes. In such case, the Company’s failure to purchase any tendered Notes would constitute
an Event of Default under the Indenture which would, in turn, constitute a default under the Credit Agreement and possibly the documents governing such other Indebtedness. 
  
 The provisions described above that require the Company to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will
be applicable regardless of whether any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, the Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders of the Notes to require that
the Company repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction. 
  
 The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the
manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control
Offer. 
  
 The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase
relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of
case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a Holder of Notes to require the Company to repurchase such Notes as a result
of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person or group may be uncertain. 
  
 Asset Sales 
  
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
  

	 	(1)	the Company (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity
Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; 

	 	(2)	such fair market value is determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate
delivered to the Trustee; and 

  

	 	(3)	at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash. For purposes of this clause (3), each of the following shall
be deemed to be cash: 

  

	 	(a)	any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent
liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary written novation agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from
further liability; 

  

	 	(b)	any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are contemporaneously (subject to ordinary settlement
periods) converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received in that conversion); and 

  

	 	(c)	any Designated Noncash Consideration received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having a fair market value, taken together with all other
Designated Noncash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 7.5% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Noncash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item
of Designated Noncash Consideration being measured at the time received without giving effect to subsequent changes in value. 

  
 Within 365 days of the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds at its option:

  

	 	(1)	to permanently reduce Obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement and other secured Indebtedness of the Company (and to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect
thereto) or Indebtedness of the Company that ranks pari passu with the Notes (provided that if the Company shall so reduce Obligations under such pari passu Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness of the Company that is also an
Obligation of a Restricted Subsidiary), it will offer to equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Notes by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders of Notes to purchase at a
purchase price equal to 100% of the Accreted Value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, the pro rata Accreted Value of Notes), or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case, other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or an
Affiliate of the Company; provided that, if an offer to purchase any Indebtedness of American Seafoods Group or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is made in accordance with the terms of such Indebtedness, the obligation to permanently reduce
Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be satisfied to the extent of the amount of the offer, whether or not accepted by the holders thereof, and no Excess Proceeds in the amount of such offer will be deemed to exist following
such offer; 

	 	(2)	to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of a Permitted Business, or a majority of the Voting Stock of a Person engaged in a Permitted Business that becomes a Restricted
Subsidiary; 

  

	 	(3)	to make an investment or a capital expenditure in or that is used or useful in a Permitted Business; or 

  

	 	(4)	to acquire other assets, other than current assets, in or that are used or useful in a Permitted Business. 

  
 Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce
revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture. 
  
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”
When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of pari passu Indebtedness of the Company containing provisions similar to those set forth
in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount at maturity of Notes and such pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The
offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the Accreted Value of the Notes purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds
remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use such Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate Accreted Value of Notes and pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such
Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the Accreted Value of Notes and such pari passu Indebtedness
tendered. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
  
 The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent
such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sales provisions of the Indenture,
the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such conflict. 
  
 The Credit Agreement prohibits the Company from purchasing any Notes, and
also provides that certain asset sales events with respect to the Company or American Seafoods Group would constitute a default under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement and the ASG Subordinated Notes Indenture also restrict the ability of
American Seafoods Group to pay dividends or make other distributions to the Company in order to fund the Company’s purchase of any Notes tendered. Any future credit agreements or other agreements relating to Indebtedness to which American
Seafoods Group or any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Company becomes a party may contain similar restrictions and provisions. In the event an Asset Sale occurs at a time when the Company is prohibited from purchasing Notes or American Seafoods
Group or any other Restricted Subsidiary is prohibited from paying dividends to fund the purchase of any Notes tendered, the Company could seek the consent of the lenders or creditors to the purchase of Notes or could attempt to refinance the
Indebtedness that contains such prohibition. If the Company does not obtain such a consent or repay such Indebtedness, the Company will be unable to purchase any tendered Notes. In such case, the Company’s failure to purchase any tendered Notes
would constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture which would, in turn, constitute a default under the Credit Agreement and possibly such other Indebtedness. 

 Selection and Notice 
  
 If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption as follows: 
  

	 	(1)	if the Notes are listed, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or 

  

	 	(2)	if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. 

  
 No Notes of $1,000 principal amount at maturity or less shall be redeemed in
part. Notices of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Notices of redemption may not be conditional.

  
 If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of
redemption that relates to that Note shall state the portion of the principal amount at maturity thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount at maturity equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of
the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, Notes or
portions thereof called for redemption will cease to accrete or accrue interest, as the case may be. 
  
 Certain Covenants 
  
 Restricted Payments 
  
 The Company will
not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 
  

	 	(1)	declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including,
without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity
Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company); 

  

	 	(2)	purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company) any Equity Interests
of the Company, any direct or indirect parent of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary); 

  

	 	(3)	make any voluntary payment on or with respect to, or any voluntary purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of, any Subordinated Indebtedness;
or 

	 	(4)	make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”),

  
 unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such
Restricted Payment: 
  

	 	(1)	no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and 

  

	 	(2)	(A) with respect to a Restricted Payment by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company other than American Seafoods Group and its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Company
would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional
Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in clause (i) of the first paragraph of the covenant described below under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock” (it being
understood that for purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for this purpose only, any of the Company’s noncash interest expense and amortization of original issue discount shall be excluded) or (B) with respect to a Restricted
Payment by American Seafoods Group or any Restricted Subsidiary of American Seafoods Group, American Seafoods Group would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made
at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in clause (ii) of the first paragraph of the covenant described
below under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”; and 

  

	 	(3)	such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries after April 18, 2002 (excluding
Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (5), (6), (7), (8), (9) and (10) of the next succeeding paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of: 

  

	 	(a)	50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company (it being understood that for purposes of calculating Consolidated Net Income pursuant to this clause 3(a) only any of the
Company’s noncash interest expense and amortization of original issue discount shall be excluded) for the period (taken as one accounting period) from July 1, 2002 (which is the first date of the fiscal quarter immediately following the date of
the ASG Subordinated Notes Indenture) to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such
period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus 

  

	 	(b)	100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Company since April 18, 2002 (which is the date of the ASG Subordinated Notes Indenture) as a contribution to its common
equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Company
that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than, in each case in this clause (b), Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Company); plus

	 	(c)	to the extent that any Restricted Investment (including any such Restricted Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that was made after April 18, 2002 is sold for cash or
otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the lesser of (i) the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (net of the cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment, but only if and to
the extent such amounts are not included in the calculation of Consolidated Net Income. 

  
 So long as (with respect to clauses (4), (5), (6), (8), (10), (11) and (12) below) no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby,
the preceding provisions will not prohibit: 
  

	 	(1)	the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at said date of declaration such payment would have complied with the provisions of the
Indenture; 

  

	 	(2)	the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or of any Equity Interests of the Company in exchange for, or
out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity Interests of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are
utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition shall be excluded from clause (3)(b) of the preceding paragraph; 

  

	 	(3)	the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of Subordinated Indebtedness with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;

  

	 	(4)	the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the holders of its common Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 

  

	 	(5)	the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of any Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company held by any
member of the Company’s (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’) management pursuant to any management equity subscription agreement or stock option agreement in effect as of the Closing Date, or dividends or distributions to effect such
transactions; provided that the aggregate price paid, dividended or distributed for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not exceed $1.0 million in any twelve-month period; 

  

	 	(6)	payment of dividends or distributions by the Company to any Parent or member in amounts required for such person to pay franchise taxes and other fees required to maintain its
existence and provide for all other actual out-of-pocket operating costs of such person, including, without limitation, in respect of director fees and expenses, administrative, legal and accounting services provided by third parties and costs and
expenses with respect to filings with the SEC, of up to $500,000 per fiscal year; 

  

	 	(7)	the payment of dividends or distributions by the Company to the Company’s members (x) for so long as the Company is treated as a partnership or disregarded entity for

 Federal income tax purposes (a “Flow-Through Entity”), in an amount equal to the Permitted Tax
Distributions and (y) for so long as the Company is not a Flow-Through Entity but is included in a consolidated or combined income tax group with the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, in an amount equal to the Federal, state and local income tax
obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries as if the Company and its Subsidiaries filed separate income tax returns on a separate company basis; provided that, with respect to clause (y) of this clause (7), (a) the amount of dividends
and distributions paid to enable the Parent to pay Federal, state and local income taxes at any time shall not exceed the amount of such Federal, state and local income taxes actually owing by the Parent at such time for the respective period and
(b) any refunds received by the Parent attributable to the tax obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall promptly be returned by the Parent to the Company; 
  

	 	(8)	(a)    repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the cashless exercise of stock options and warrants; and

	 	(9)	the payment of the Special Distribution by American Seafoods Group to its members on April 18, 2002; 

  

	 	(10)	the declaration and payment of dividends to the Parent or members of the Company in an amount not to exceed the net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Notes on
the Closing Date; 

  

	 	(11)	the declaration and payment of dividends and distributions to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of the Company or American Seafoods Group issued or incurred in
accordance with the covenant described below under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock”; provided that the dividends and distributions on such Disqualified Stock are included in the
determination of the Fixed Charges used in computing compliance with such covenant; and 

  

	 	(12)	other Restricted Payments not otherwise permitted pursuant to this covenant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $10.0 million. 

  
 The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair
market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued to or by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any
assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee. The Board of Directors’ determination must
be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing if the fair market value exceeds $10.0 million. Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this “Restricted Payments” covenant were computed, together with a
copy of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by the Indenture. 

 Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock 
  
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the
Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and the Company will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Disqualified Stock or preferred stock; provided, however, that (i) the Company may incur Indebtedness
(including Acquired Debt) and may issue shares of Disqualified Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding
the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred, or such Disqualified Stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1, and (ii) American Seafoods Group and any Restricted Subsidiary of American Seafoods may incur
Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for American Seafoods Group’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which
such additional Indebtedness is incurred would have been at least 2.0 to 1, in each case, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or
Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 
  
 The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted
Debt”): 
  

	 	(1)	the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness under Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding (with letters of
credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed $450 million, less the aggregate amount of all Net Proceeds of Asset Sales
applied by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to repay any Indebtedness under Credit Facilities (and, in the case of any revolving credit Indebtedness under a Credit Facility, to effect a corresponding commitment reduction thereunder) pursuant
to the covenant “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales”; 

  

	 	(2)	the incurrence by the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary of the Existing Indebtedness; 

  

	 	(3)	the incurrence by the Company of Indebtedness represented by the Notes to be issued on the Closing Date and the Exchange Notes to be issued pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement; 

  

	 	(4)	the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in
each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate
principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed $25.0 million at any time outstanding; 

  

	 	(5)	the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to

 refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by
the Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clause (2), (3), (4), (5), (14), (15) or (16) of this paragraph; 
  

	 	(6)	(A) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
provided, however, that: 

  
 (a) if
the Company is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Notes; and 
  
 (b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a
Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof, 
  
 shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such
Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); and 
  
 (B) the issuance of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock by any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or to any other Restricted Subsidiary of the
Company; provided, however, that: 
  
 (i) any
subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock being held by a Person other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and 
  
 (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Disqualified Stock or preferred
stock to a Person that is not the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, 
  
 shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock by the Company, or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

  

	 	(7)	the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations entered into for bona fide hedging purposes in the ordinary course of business, and not
for speculative purposes; 

  

	 	(8)	the guarantee by any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this covenant;

  

	 	(9)	the accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount and the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the
same terms will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Company or American Seafoods Group, as the case may be,
as accrued (other than as expressly permitted to be excluded by the terms of the Indenture); 

	 	(10)	the incurrence by the Company’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Non-Recourse Debt; provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was not permitted by this clause (10); 

  

	 	(11)	the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit issued in the ordinary
course of business in respect of workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance or similar requirements; provided, however, that, upon the drawing of such letters of credit, such obligations are reimbursed within 30 days following
such drawing; 

  

	 	(12)	the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations in respect of performance, appeal and surety bonds, completion guarantees, insurance bonds and
other similar bonds provided by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business; 

  

	 	(13)	the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary providing for
indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, other than guarantees of Indebtedness
incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or a Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; provided that: 

  

	 	(a)	such Indebtedness is not reflected on the balance sheet of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (contingent obligations referred to in a footnote or footnotes to financial
statements and not otherwise reflected on the balance sheet will not be deemed to be reflected on that balance sheet for the purpose of this clause (a)); and 

  

	 	(b)	the maximum assumable liability in respect of that Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds including noncash proceeds (the fair market value of those noncash
proceeds being measured at the time received and without giving effect to any subsequent changes in value) actually received by the Company and/or that Restricted Subsidiary in connection with that disposition; 

  

	 	(14)	the incurrence by any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, other than American Seafoods Group and its Restricted Subsidiaries, of Acquired Debt; provided that, after giving
effect to such Acquired Debt and the related acquisition or merger transaction as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, the Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness
pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in clause (i) of the first paragraph of this covenant; 

  

	 	(15)	the incurrence by any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of Indebtedness; provided that, after giving effect to such incurrence of Indebtedness and the application of the
net proceeds there from as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, the Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth
in clause (i) of the first paragraph of this covenant; and provided further that the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness incurred 

 pursuant to this clause (15), including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund,
refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (15), shall not exceed $40.0 million at any time outstanding; 
  

	 	(16)	the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to
refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (16), not to exceed $20.0 million at any time outstanding. 

  
 For purposes of determining compliance with this “Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock” covenant, in the event that any
proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (16) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, the Company will be permitted
to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify, in any manner that complies with this covenant. 
  
 Liens 
  
 The Company will not create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness of the
Company (other than Permitted Liens) upon any property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or any income or profits therefrom, now owned or hereafter acquired (the “Initial Lien”), unless all payments due under the
Indenture and the Notes are secured equally and ratably with (or, in the case of Subordinated Indebtedness, prior to or senior thereto, with the same relative priority as the Notes shall have with respect to such Subordinated Indebtedness) the
Obligations so secured. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lien securing the Notes granted pursuant to this covenant shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (a) the release by the holders of the Indebtedness described
above of the Initial Lien on the property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or (b) any sale or transfer to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company of the property or assets secured by such Initial Lien, or of all of the
Capital Stock held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in, or all or substantially all the assets of, the Restricted Subsidiary creating such Initial Lien (so long as no Lien attaches to any assets received in consideration for such sale or
transfer). 
  
 Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions
Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries 
  
 The Company will
not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
  

	 	(1)	pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in,
or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(2)	make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

  

	 	(3)	transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 

 However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by
reason of: 
  

	 	(1)	agreements and instruments relating to Existing Indebtedness or the Credit Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals,
increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as
a whole, than those contained in such agreements or instruments, as in effect on the Closing Date; 

  

	 	(2)	the Indenture and the Notes; 

  

	 	(3)	applicable law; 

  

	 	(4)	any agreement or instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or merged with or consolidated into any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, in each case, as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is
not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of
the Indenture to be incurred; 

  

	 	(5)	customary non-assignment provisions in leases or license agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

  

	 	(6)	purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions on the property so acquired of the nature described in clause (3) of the
preceding paragraph; 

  

	 	(7)	any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary, or all or substantially all of the assets of a Restricted Subsidiary, that restricts distributions by
that Restricted Subsidiary pending such sale or other disposition; 

  

	 	(8)	Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements or instruments governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are no more
restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements or instruments governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 

  

	 	(9)	Permitted Liens securing Indebtedness of the Company or Liens securing Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, in each case, permitted to be incurred under the
terms of the Indenture to the extent restricting the transfer of the property or assets subject thereto; 

  

	 	(10)	restrictions on cash or other deposits imposed by customers under agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

	 	(11)	customary supermajority voting provisions and customary provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property, in each case contained in joint venture
agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

  

	 	(12)	restrictions on the transfer of property or assets required by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their businesses;
and 

  

	 	(13)	other Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company permitted to be incurred pursuant to an agreement entered into subsequent to the Closing Date in accordance with the
covenant described under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock” provided that either (A) the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness are no less
favorable to the Company, taken as a whole, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith than the provisions contained in the Credit Agreement or in the ASG Subordinated Notes Indenture, in each case, as in effect on the
Closing Date or (B) any encumbrance or restriction contained in such Indebtedness does not prohibit (except upon a default or event of default thereunder) the payment of dividends in an amount sufficient, as determined by the Board of Directors of
the Company in good faith, to make scheduled payments of cash interest on the Notes when due. 

  
 Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets 
  
 The Company may not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Company is the surviving Person); or
(2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person; unless: 
  

	 	(1)	either: (a) the Company is the surviving corporation or limited liability company; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the
Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is a corporation or limited liability company, in the case of each of (a) and (b) above, organized or existing under the laws of the United
States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; provided, however, that, if the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger, or the transferee of such properties or assets, is a limited liability company, then
there shall be a Restricted Subsidiary of such Person which shall be a corporation organized in the jurisdictions permitted by this clause (1) and a co-obligor of the Notes; 

  

	 	(2)	the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other
disposition shall have been made assumes all the obligations of the Company under the Notes, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; 

  

	 	(3)	immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

  

	 	(4)	the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other
disposition shall have been made, will, on the date of such transaction after giving 

 pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the
beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in clause (i) of the first paragraph of the covenant described above under
the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.” 
  
 In the event of any transactions (other than a lease) described in and complying with this “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant in which the Company is not the surviving Person, such surviving
Person or transferee shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise any right and power of, the Company, and the Company shall be discharged from its obligations, under the Indenture and the Notes, with the same effect as if such
successor Person has been named as the Company herein. 
  
 In
addition, neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary may, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person except that a Restricted Subsidiary (other
than American Seafoods Group LLC) may lease all or substantially all its properties or assets in compliance with the covenant described under “Repurchase at the Option of the Holders — Asset Sales”. This “Merger, Consolidation or
Sale of Assets” covenant will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among the Company and any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 Transactions with Affiliates 
  
 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance
or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 
  

	 	(1)	such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable
transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 

  

	 	(2)	the Company delivers to the Trustee: 

  

	 	(a)	with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $2.0 million, a resolution of the Board of
Directors set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors;
and 

  

	 	(b)	with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing. 

 The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject
to the provisions of the prior paragraph: 
  

	 	(1)	transactions between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(2)	payment of directors’ fees and cash compensation, and the provision of customary indemnification, in each case consistent with the Company’s past practice, to directors,
officers, employees and managers of any Parent or member of the Company or of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case for services rendered to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	(3)	Restricted Payments that are permitted by the provisions of the Indenture described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments”; 

  

	 	(4)	any agreement as in effect or entered into as of the Closing Date and described in “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” herein or any amendment thereto so long
as any such amendment is not more disadvantageous to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary or the Holders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Closing Date; 

  

	 	(5)	the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses to the Principals or their Related Parties and their respective Affiliates for monitoring and consulting services rendered by them to the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in an amount not to exceed $200,000 in any fiscal year; 

  

	 	(6)	payments by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (directly or through any Parent or member) to the Principals or their Related Parties and their respective Affiliates
of fees and out-of-pocket expenses for any financial advisory, financing, underwriting or placement services or in respect of other investment banking activities, including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or divestitures, which
payments are approved by the majority of the Disinterested Members of the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith and are in an amount not to exceed 2.0% of the aggregate transaction value (or portion thereof) in respect of which such
services are rendered, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses; 

  

	 	(7)	the issuance of Equity Interests (other that Disqualified Stock) of the Company; 

  

	 	(8)	loans to Coastal Villages Pollock LLC, Central Bering Sea Fishermans Association and any other Person that enters into any community development fishing rights quota agreement with
the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that such loans are approved in good faith by a majority of the Disinterested Members of the Board of Directors of the Company and the principal amount of such loans at any time outstanding
does not exceed $1,000,000; 

  

	 	(9)	transactions with a joint venture engaged in a Permitted Business; provided that all the outstanding ownership interests of such joint venture are owned only by the Company, its
Restricted Subsidiaries and Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company; 

  

	 	(10)	payments or loans to officers, directors, employees and managers of any Parent or member of the Company or of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary for travel,

 entertainment, moving and other relocation expenses, in each case relating to the business of the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries made in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the policy of the Company, which policy is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith; 
  

	 	(11)	issuance of Capital Stock of the Company in connection with employment incentive plans, employee stock plans, employee stock option plans and similar plans or arrangements approved
by a majority of Disinterested Members of the Board of Directors of the Company and in accordance with the Company’s past practice; and 

  

	 	(12)	transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business which are fair to the Company or its Restricted
Subsidiaries in the determination of the Board of Directors of the Company including a majority of Disinterested Members of the Board of Directors. 

  
 Limitations on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness 
  
 At any time upon the incurrence of the Guarantee of any Indebtedness of the
Company by any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (other than any such Guarantee of Indebtedness arising under the Credit Facilitates with banks or other institutional lenders providing for revolving credit loans, terms loans, receivable financing
or letters of credit), the Company will cause such Restricted Subsidiary to fully and unconditionally guarantee the Notes (a “Note Guarantee”) and to execute a supplement to the Indenture or such other documentation, satisfactory in form
and substance to the Trustee, setting forth such Note Guarantee (and with any other documentation relating thereto as the Trustee shall require, including, without limitation, opinions of counsel as to enforceability of such Note Guarantee);
provided, however, that if such, Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary is provided in respect of Subordinated Indebtedness, the Guarantee or other instrument provided by such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Subordinated
Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the Note Guarantee to the same extent such Subordinated Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes. 
  
 The Indenture will provide that a Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge
with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless: 
  

	 	(1)	immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

  

	 	(2)	either: 

  

	 	(a)	the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger is a corporation or limited liability
company, organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under the Indenture, its Note Guarantee and the Registration Rights Agreement
pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee; or 

  

	 	(b)	such sale or other disposition complies with the “Asset Sale” provisions of the Indenture, including the application of the Net Proceeds therefrom.

 The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released: 
  

	 	(1)	in connection with any sale of Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) an affiliate of the Company in
compliance with either clause (1) or clause (2) of the first paragraph of “Certain Covenants—Limitation on Issuances and Sales of Equity Interests in Restricted Subsidiaries”; or 

  

	 	(2)	if the Company properly designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary; or 

  

	 	(3)	upon legal defeasance of the Company’s and all Guarantors’ obligations under the Notes and the Note Guarantees or satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, in each
case, in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. 

  
 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries 
  
 The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default; provided that in no event shall (1) either American Seafoods Group
or ASG Finance be designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (2) the business currently operated by American Seafoods Group be transferred to or held by an Unrestricted Subsidiary. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be a Restricted Investment made as of the time of such designation and
that designation will only be permitted if such Investment would be permitted at that time and if such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time
designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such
Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under the covenant described under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred
Stock,” calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. 
  
 Limitation on Issuances and Sales of Equity Interests in Restricted
Subsidiaries 
  
 The Company will not, and will not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, convey, sell or otherwise dispose of any Equity Interests in any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to any Person (other than the Company or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company),
unless: 
  

	 	(1)	such conveyance, sale or other disposition is of all the Equity Interests in such Restricted Subsidiary and such conveyance, sale or other disposition complies with the covenant
described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales”, including the application of the Net Proceeds therefrom; or 

  

	 	(2)	if, immediately after giving effect to such conveyance, sale or other disposition, such Restricted Subsidiary would no longer constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, (i) such
conveyance, sale or other disposition is in accordance with the covenant described above 

 under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales”, including the
application of the Net Proceeds therefrom, and (ii) any remaining Investment in such Person would have been permitted to be made under “Certain Covenants — Restricted Payments” (other than as a Permitted Investment) if made on the
date of such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition. 
  
 In addition, the Company will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to issue any of its Equity Interests (other than, if necessary, shares of its Capital Stock constituting directors’ qualifying shares or shares of
Capital Stock of foreign Restricted Subsidiaries required to be owned by foreign nationals under applicable law) to any Person other than to the Company or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company. 
  
 Business Activities 
  
 The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
  
 Payments for Consent 
  

The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to
or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the
Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 
  
 ASG Finance Capital and Ownership Structure 
  
 ASG Finance will not, and the Company will not permit ASG Finance to (a) alter, amend or otherwise change its capital and ownership structure (including
that 100% of the total voting power of shares of Capital Stock in ASG Finance entitled to vote in the election of directors shall at all times be directly owned and controlled by the Company), (b) issue, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of any of its Equity Interests to any Person, (c) make any Investment in any Person or (d) conduct any business other than acting as co-obligor on the Notes. 
  
 Reports 
  
 Whether or not required by the Commission, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Holders of Notes, within the time periods
specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations: 
  

	 	(1)	all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission 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 Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports. 

  
 In addition, whether or not required by the Commission, the Company will file
a copy of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations (unless the Commission will not accept
such a filing) and make such public information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request. In addition, the Company has agreed that, for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, they will furnish to the Holders and to
securities analysts and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. 
  
 If the Company has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial
information required by the preceding paragraph shall include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company. 
  
 Events of Default and Remedies 
  
 Each of the following is an Event of Default: 
  

	 	(1)	default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Liquidated Damages with respect to, the Notes; 

  

	 	(2)	default in payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes; 

  

	 	(3)	failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with the provisions described under the captions “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change
of Control,” “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales” or “—Certain Covenants—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”; 

  

	 	(4)	failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 30 days after notice to comply with any of the other agreements in the Indenture; 

  

	 	(5)	default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the Closing Date, if that default:

  

	 	(a)	is caused by a failure to make any payment due at final maturity of such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of any applicable grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the
date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or 

  

	 	(b)	results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, 

  
 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such
Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $5,000,000 or more; 

	 	(6)	failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $5,000,000, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a
period of 60 days; 

  

	 	(7)	except as permitted by the Indenture, any Note Guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force
and effect or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Note Guarantee; and 

  

	 	(8)	certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries. 

  
 In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy
or insolvency, with respect to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, all unpaid Accreted Value of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on all outstanding Notes will become due and payable
immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount at maturity of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and
payable immediately by notice in writing to the Company specifying the respective Event of Default and then all unpaid Accreted Value of, and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, on all outstanding Notes
will become due and payable immediately. 
  
 Holders of the Notes
may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or Liquidated Damages) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interest. 
  
 The Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except
a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or Liquidated Damages on, or the principal of, the Notes. 
  
 In the case of any Event of Default occurring by reason of any willful action or inaction taken or not taken by or on behalf of the Company with the
intention of avoiding payment of the premium that the Company would have had to pay if the Company then had elected to redeem the Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture, an equivalent premium shall also become and be
immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the Notes. If an Event of Default occurs during any time that the Notes are outstanding, by reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on
behalf of the Company with the intention of avoiding the prohibition on redemption of the Notes, then the premium specified in the Indenture shall also become immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the
Notes. 
  
 The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee
annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Company is required to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 

 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders 
  
 No director, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder of the
Company, ASG Finance or any Guarantor (or of any holder of an Equity Interest in any of them), as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or any Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, any Note Guarantees or for any
claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The
waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws. 
  
 Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance 
  
 The Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have all of their obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes and all obligations of any Guarantors discharged with respect to their Note
Guarantees (“Legal Defeasance”) except for: 
  

	 	(1)	the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on such Notes when such
payments are due from the trust referred to below; 

  

	 	(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 security payments held in trust; 

  

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

  

	 	(4)	the Legal Defeasance provisions of the Indenture. 

  
 In addition, the Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have the obligations of the Issuers and any Guarantors released with respect to
certain covenants that are described in the Indenture (“Covenant Defeasance”) and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In the event Covenant
Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under “Events of Default and Remedies” will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to
the Notes. 
  
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or
Covenant Defeasance: 
  

	 	(1)	the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a
combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the Accreted Value of, and interest and premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, on the outstanding
Notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; 

  

	 	(2)	in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (a) the Issuers

 have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since
the Closing Date, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to 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 Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the
outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to 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 shall have occurred and be continuing either: (a) on the date of such deposit; or (b) insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency
events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit; 

  

	 	(5)	such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument to which the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 

  

	 	(6)	the Company must have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Company or any Guarantor between the date of
deposit and the 91st day following the deposit and assuming that no Holder is an “insider” of the Company under applicable bankruptcy law, after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; 

  

	 	(7)	the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over
the other creditors of the Issuers or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Issuers or others; and 

  

	 	(8)	the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the
Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 

  
 Amendment,
Supplement and Waiver 
  
 Except as provided in the next two
succeeding paragraphs, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained
in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes), and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount
at maturity of the then outstanding Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Notes). 

 Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes
held by a non-consenting Holder): 
  

	 	(1)	reduce the percentage of principal amount at maturity of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 

  

	 	(2)	reduce the principal or Accreted Value (or change the method of calculation of Accreted Value) of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions, or waive any
payment, with respect to the redemption of the Notes; 

  

	 	(3)	reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

  

	 	(4)	waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, or Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the
Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration); 

  

	 	(5)	make any Note payable in money other than U.S. dollars; 

  

	 	(6)	make any change in the provisions of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium
or Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes; 

  

	 	(7)	release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or the Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; 

  

	 	(8)	impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to the Notes or the Note Guarantees; 

  

	 	(9)	except as otherwise permitted under the “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant or the “Limitations on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness”
covenant, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Issuers or any Guarantor of any of their rights or obligations under the Indenture; 

  

	 	(10)	amend or modify any of the provisions of the Indenture or the related definitions affecting the ranking of the Notes or any Note Guarantee in any manner adverse to the holders of
the Notes or any Note Guarantee; or 

  

	 	(11)	make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions. 

  
 In addition, any amendment, change or modification of the obligation of the Company to make and consummate an Asset Sale Offer with respect to any Asset
Sale in accordance with the “Repurchase at the Option of Holders – Asset Sales” covenant or the obligation of the Company to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control in accordance with the
“Repurchase at the Option of Holders – Change of Control” covenant, including, in each case, amending, changing or modifying any definition relating thereto, will require the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate
principal amount at maturity of Notes then outstanding. 
  
 Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Issuers and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes: 
  

	 	(1)	to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 

	 	(2)	to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 

  

	 	(3)	to provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially
all of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s assets; 

  

	 	(4)	to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such
Holder (including but not limited to adding a Guarantor under the Indenture and adding additional collateral for the benefit of Holders of the Notes); 

  

	 	(5)	to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; or 

  

	 	(6)	to release any Guarantor from its Note Guarantee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. 

  
 Satisfaction and Discharge 
  
 The Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued thereunder, when: 
  

	 	(1)	either: 

  

	 	(a)	all Notes that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in
trust and thereafter repaid to the Company) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  

	 	(b)	all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due
and payable within one year and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal,
premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

  

	 	(2)	no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; 

  

	 	(3)	the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under the Indenture; and 

	 	(4)	the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under the Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or the redemption
date, as the case may be. 

  
 Concerning the Trustee 
  
 If the Trustee becomes a creditor of the Issuers or any Guarantor, the
Indenture limits its right to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it
acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign. 
  
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The Indenture provides that in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its
power, to use the degree of care of a prudent man in the conduct of his own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any Holder of
Notes, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

 Governing Law 
  
 The Indenture and the Notes will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
  
 Book-Entry, Delivery and Form 
  
 The Notes are being offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A (“Rule 144A
Notes”). Notes also may be offered and sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S (“Regulation S Notes”). Except as set forth below, Notes will be issued in registered, global form in minimum denominations of $1,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Notes will be issued at the closing of this offering only against payment in immediately available funds. 
  
 Rule 144A Notes initially will be represented by one or more Notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the “Rule 144A
Global Notes”). Regulation S Notes initially will be represented by one or more Notes in registered, global form without interest coupons (collectively, the “Regulation S Global Notes” and, together with the Rule 144A Global Notes,
the “Global Notes”). The Global Notes will be deposited upon issuance with the Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), in New York, New York, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, in each case
for credit to an account of a direct or indirect participant in DTC as described below. Through and including the 40th day after the later of the commencement of this offering and the closing of this offering (such period through and including such
40th day, the “Restricted Period”), beneficial interests in the 

 Regulation S Global Notes may be held only through the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking,
S.A. (“Clearstream”) (as indirect participants in DTC), unless transferred to a person that takes delivery through a Rule 144A Global Note in accordance with the certification requirements described below. Beneficial interests in the Rule
144A Global Notes may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Notes at any time except in the limited circumstances described below. See “—Exchanges Between Regulation S Notes and Rule 144A Notes.”

  
 Except as set forth below, the Global Notes may be
transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes may not be exchanged for Notes in certificated form except in the limited circumstances described
below. See “—Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes.” Except in the limited circumstances described below, owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Notes in
certificated form. 
  
 Rule 144A Notes (including beneficial
interests in the Rule 144A Global Notes) will be subject to certain restrictions on transfer and will bear a restrictive legend as described under “Notice to Investors.” Regulation S Notes will also bear the legend as described under
“Notice to Investors.” In addition, transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants (including, if applicable, those of Euroclear
and Clearstream), which may change from time to time. 
  
 Depository Procedures

  
 The following description of the operations and procedures of
DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to changes by them from time to time. The Issuers take
no responsibility for these operations and procedures and urge investors to contact the system or their participants directly to discuss these matters. 
  
 DTC has advised the Issuers that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the
“Participants”) and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its Participants. The Participants include securities brokers and
dealers (including the Initial Purchasers), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear
through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant, either directly or indirectly (collectively, the “Indirect Participants”). Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only
through the Participants or the Indirect Participants. The ownership interests in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the Participants and Indirect Participants.

  
 DTC has also advised the Issuers that, pursuant to procedures
established by it: 
  

	 	(1)	upon deposit of the Global Notes, DTC will credit the accounts of Participants designated by the Initial Purchasers with portions of the principal amount of the Global Notes; and

  

	 	(2)	ownership of these interests in the Global Notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to
the Participants) or by the Participants and the Indirect Participants (with respect to other owners of beneficial interest in the Global Notes). 

 Investors in the Rule 144A Global Notes who are Participants in DTC’s system may hold their
interests therein directly through DTC. Investors in the Rule 144A Global Notes who are not Participants may hold their interests therein indirectly through organizations (including Euroclear and Clearstream) which are Participants in such system.
Investors in the Regulation S Global Notes must initially hold their interests therein through Euroclear or Clearstream, if they are participants in such systems, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in such systems. After the
expiration of the Restricted Period (but not earlier), investors may also hold interests in the Regulation S Global Notes through Participants in the DTC system other than Euroclear and Clearstream. Euroclear and Clearstream will hold interests in
the Regulation S Global Notes on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in their respective names on the books of their respective depositories, which are Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, Brussels office,
as operator of Euroclear, and Citibank, N.A., as operator of Clearstream. All interests in a Global Note, including those held through Euroclear or Clearstream, may be subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC. Those interests held through
Euroclear or Clearstream may also be subject to the procedures and requirements of such systems. The laws of some states require that certain Persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities that they own. Consequently, the ability to
transfer beneficial interests in a Global Note to such Persons will be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act only on behalf of Participants, which in turn act on behalf of Indirect Participants, the ability of a Person having beneficial
interests in a Global Note to pledge such interests to Persons that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interests, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interests.

  
 Except as described below, owners of interest in the Global
Notes will not have Notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of Notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or “Holders” thereof under the Indenture for any purpose. 
  
 Payments in respect of the principal of, and interest and premium and
Liquidated Damages, if any, on a Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable to DTC in its capacity as the registered Holder under the Indenture. Under the terms of the Indenture, the Issuers and the Trustee will treat
the Persons in whose names the Notes, including the Global Notes, are registered as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other purposes. Consequently, neither the Issuers, the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuers or
the Trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for: 
  

	 	(1)	any aspect of DTC’s records or any Participant’s or Indirect Participant’s records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interest in the
Global Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any Participant’s or Indirect Participant’s records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes; or 

  

	 	(2)	any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its Participants or Indirect Participants. 

  
 DTC has advised the Issuers that its current practice, upon receipt of any
payment in respect of securities such as the Notes (including principal and interest), is to credit the accounts of the relevant Participants with the payment on the payment date unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on such
payment date. Each relevant Participant is credited with an amount proportionate to its beneficial ownership of an interest in the principal amount of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by the Participants and the
Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of Notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of the Participants or the Indirect Participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the
Trustee or the 

 Issuers. Neither the Issuers nor the Trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of its Participants in
identifying the beneficial owners of the Notes, and the Issuers and the Trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes. 
  
 Subject to the transfer restrictions set forth under “Notice to
Investors,” transfers between Participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds, and transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be effected in accordance
with their respective rules and operating procedures. 
  
 Subject
to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Notes described herein, cross-market transfers between the Participants in DTC, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through
DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case
may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement
requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant Global Note in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with
normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream. 
  
 DTC has advised the Issuers that it will take any action permitted to be
taken by a Holder of Notes only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose account DTC has credited the interests in the Global Notes and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes as to which such
Participant or Participants has or have given such direction. However, if there is an Event of Default under the Notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange the Global Notes for legended Notes in certificated form, and to distribute such Notes to its
Participants. 
  
 Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have
agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the Rule 144A Global Notes and the Regulation S Global Notes among participants in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or to continue to
perform such procedures, and may discontinue such procedures at any time. Neither the Issuers nor the Trustee nor any of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective
participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations. 
  
 Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes 
  
 A Global Note is exchangeable for definitive Notes in registered certificated form (“Certificated Notes”) if: 
  

	 	(1)	DTC (a) notifies the Issuers that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and the Issuers fail to appoint a successor depositary or (b) has ceased
to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act; 

  

	 	(2)	the Issuers, at their option, notify the Trustee in writing that they elect to cause the issuance of the Certificated Notes; or 

	 	(3)	there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. 

  
 In addition, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be exchanged for Certificated Notes upon prior written notice given
to the Trustee by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with the Indenture. In all cases, Certificated Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests in Global Notes will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved
denominations, requested by or on behalf of the depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures) and will bear the applicable restrictive legend referred to in “Notice to Investors,” unless that legend is not required by applicable
law. 
  
 Exchange of Certificated Notes for Global Notes 
  
 Certificated Notes may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in any
Global Note unless the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in the form provided in the Indenture) to the effect that such transfer will comply with the appropriate transfer restrictions applicable to such Notes. See
“Notice to Investors.” 
  
 Exchanges Between Regulation S Notes and Rule
144A Notes 
  
 Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period,
beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global Note may be exchanged for beneficial interests in the Rule 144A Global Note only if: 
  

	 	(1)	such exchange occurs in connection with a transfer of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A; and 

  

	 	(2)	the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in the form provided in the Indenture) to the effect that the Notes are being transferred to a Person:

  

	 	(a)	who the transferor reasonably believes to be a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A; 

  

	 	(b)	purchasing for its own account or the account of a qualified institutional buyer in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A; and 

  

	 	(c)	in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states of the United States and other jurisdictions. 

  
 Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Note may be transferred to a
Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the Restricted Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in the form provided
in the Indenture) to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if available) and that, if such transfer occurs prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, the interest
transferred will be held immediately thereafter through Euroclear or Clearstream. 
  
 Transfers involving exchanges of beneficial interests between the Regulation S Global Notes and the Rule 144A Global Notes will be effected in DTC by means of an instruction originated by the Trustee through the DTC
Deposit/Withdraw at Custodian system. Accordingly, in connection with any such transfer, appropriate adjustments will be made to reflect a decrease in the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note and a corresponding increase in the principal
amount of the Rule 144A Global 

 Note or vice versa, as applicable. Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person who
takes delivery in the form of an interest in the other Global Note will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Note and will become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer
restrictions and other procedures applicable to beneficial interest in such other Global Note for so long as it remains such an interest. The policies and practices of DTC may prohibit transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Global
Note prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period. 
  
 Same Day Settlement and
Payment 
  
 The Issuers will make payments in respect of the
Notes represented by the Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, interest and Liquidated Damages, if any) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Global Note Holder. The Issuers will make all
payments of principal, interest and premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, with respect to Certificated Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof or, if no such account is specified, by
mailing a check to each such Holder’s registered address. The Notes represented by the Global Notes are expected to be eligible to trade in the PORTAL market and to trade in DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System, and any permitted
secondary market trading activity in such Notes will, therefore, be required by DTC to be settled in immediately available funds. The Issuers expect that secondary trading in any Certificated Notes will also be settled in immediately available
funds. 
  
 Because of time zone differences, the securities
account of a Euroclear or Cedel participant purchasing an interest in a Global Note from a Participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Cedel participant, during the securities settlement
processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Cedel) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. DTC has advised the Issuers that cash received in Euroclear or Cedel as a result of sales of interests in a Global Note by or
through a Euroclear or Cedel participant to a Participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Cedel cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Cedel
following DTC’s settlement date. 
  
 Registration Rights; Liquidated Damages

  
 The following description is a summary of the material
provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement. It does not restate that agreement in its entirety. We urge you to read the proposed form of Registration Rights Agreement in its entirety because it, and not this description, defines your
registration rights as Holders of these Notes. See “—Additional Information.” 
  
 The Issuers and the Initial Purchasers will enter into the Registration Rights Agreement on or prior to the closing of this offering. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuers will agree to file with
the Commission the Exchange Offer Registration Statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to the Exchange Notes. Upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Issuers will offer to the Holders
of Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer who are able to make certain representations the opportunity to exchange their Notes for Exchange Notes. 
  
 If: 
  

	 	(1)	the Issuers are not permitted to consummate the Exchange Offer because the Exchange Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy; or 

	 	(2)	any Holder of Notes notifies the Issuers prior to the 20th day following consummation of the Exchange Offer that: 

  

	 	(a)	it is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer; or 

  

	 	(b)	that it may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales; or 

  

	 	(c)	that it is a broker-dealer and owns Notes acquired directly from the Issuers, 

  

the Issuers will file with the Commission a Shelf Registration Statement to cover resales of the Notes by the Holders thereof who satisfy certain conditions relating
to the provision of information in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. 
  
 The Issuers will use their reasonable best efforts to cause the applicable registration statement to be declared effective as promptly as possible by the Commission. 
  
 The Registration Rights Agreement will provide that: 
  

	 	(1)	the Issuers will file an Exchange Offer Registration Statement with the Commission on or prior to 150 days after the closing of this offering; 

  

	 	(2)	the Issuers will use their reasonable best efforts to have the Exchange Offer Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission on or prior to 210 days after the closing
of this offering; 

  

	 	(3)	unless the Exchange Offer would not be permitted by applicable law or Commission policy, the Issuers will: 

  

	 	(a)	commence the Exchange Offer; and 

  

	 	(b)	issue Exchange Notes in exchange for all Notes tendered prior thereto in the Exchange Offer; and 

  

	 	(4)	if obligated to file the Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuers will file the Shelf Registration Statement with the Commission as promptly as practicable after such filing
obligation arises and use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the later of 210 days after the closing of this offering or 75 days after such filing
obligation arises. 

  
 If: 
  

	 	(1)	the Issuers fail to file any of the registration statements required by the Registration Rights Agreement on or before the date specified for such filing; or

  

	 	(2)	any of such registration statements is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date specified for such effectiveness (the “Effectiveness Target Date”);
or 

	 	(3)	the Issuers fail to consummate the Exchange Offer within 45 days of the Effectiveness Target Date with respect to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement; or

  

	 	(4)	the Shelf Registration Statement or the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is declared effective but thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales or
exchanges of Notes during the periods specified in the Registration Rights Agreement (each such event referred to in clauses (1) through (4) above, a “Registration Default”), 

  
 then the Issuers will pay liquidated damages to each Holder of outstanding Notes
(“Liquidated Damages”) during the period of one or more Registration Defaults, with respect to the first 120-day period immediately following the occurrence of a Registration Default in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the Accreted
Value on the preceding Semi-Annual Accrual Date of the Notes (which amount will be increased by an additional 25 basis points for each subsequent 90-day period that any liquidated damages continue to accrue; provided that the amounts at which
liquidated damages accrue may in no event exceed 1.0% per annum of the Accreted Value on the preceding Semi-Annual Accrual Date of the Notes) in respect of the Notes held by such Holder until all Registration Defaults have been cured. 
  
 All accrued Liquidated Damages will be paid by the Issuers on each
                     and
                     of each year, commencing with the first such date after the occurrence of a Registration Default until such Registration
Default is cured, to the Global Note Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by federal funds check and to Holders of Certificated Notes by wire transfer to the accounts specified by them or by mailing checks to their registered
addresses if no such accounts have been specified. 
  
 Following
the cure of all Registration Defaults, the accrual of Liquidated Damages will cease. 
  
 Holders of Notes will be required to make certain representations to the Issuers (as described in the Registration Rights Agreement) in order to participate in the Exchange Offer and will be required to deliver
certain information to be used in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement and to provide comments on the Shelf Registration Statement within the time periods set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement in order to have their Notes
included in the Shelf Registration Statement and benefit from the provisions regarding Liquidated Damages set forth above. By acquiring Notes, a Holder will be deemed to have agreed to indemnify the Issuers against certain losses arising out of
information furnished by such Holder in writing for inclusion in any Shelf Registration Statement. Holders of Notes will also be required to suspend their use of the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement under certain circumstances
upon receipt of written notice to that effect from the Issuers.

 “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled

the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise; provided that beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Voting Stock of a Person shall be deemed to be
control. For purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with” shall have corresponding meanings. 

 “American Seafoods Group” means American Seafoods Group LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company, the direct wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, and its successor and assigns.
