 ARTICLE II 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 1. Ratification of
Indenture; Supplemental Indentures Part of Indenture. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This
Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every Holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby. 
 2. Governing Law. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 3. Concerning the Trustee. (a) The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Company and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee assumes no duties, responsibilities or liabilities by reason of this Supplemental Indenture other than as set forth in the Indenture. In addition, the Trustee makes no representation as to
the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture. 
 (b) The Company and each Note Guarantor, jointly and severally
shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable 

  

 2 

 
attorneys’ fees) incurred by or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture and the performance of its duties
hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided, however, that any failure so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company or any
Note Guarantor of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel
and the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’
defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no conflict of interest between the Company and the Note Guarantors, as applicable, and such parties in connection with such defense. The Company need not reimburse any
expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by an indemnified party through such party’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. 
 4. Separability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, but this Supplemental Indenture shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

 5. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original,
but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 6. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only
and shall not effect the construction thereof.

 WHEREAS, the Bondholders and the Company desire to enter into this Agreement to provide for, among other things, the consent of the Bondholders to the
proposed amendments (the “Proposed Amendments”) to the Indenture, as set forth in the Fifth Supplemental Indenture attached hereto as Annex B (the “Supplemental Indenture”), among the Company, the Note

 WHEREAS, as a condition to the willingness of the Company to enter into the Supplemental Indenture, the

 NOW, THEREFORE, to induce the Company to enter into, and in consideration of the Company’s entering
into, the Supplemental Indenture and in consideration of the premises and the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Covenants of the Company. The Company agrees as follows: 
 (a) Supplemental Indenture. On the Effectiveness Date (as defined below), the Company shall execute and deliver the Supplemental
Indenture to the Trustee and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Trustee to execute the Supplemental Indenture. 
 (b) Consent Fee. Within five (5) business days of the Effectiveness Date, the Company shall pay, in cash, to all Holders of the Notes an amount equal to $1.25 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (the “Fee”)

 (c) Form 8-K. The Company shall execute and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Form 8-K describing the transactions contemplated hereby, including as exhibits a copy of this Agreement
(excluding all Annexes hereto) and the Supplemental Indenture, within one (1) business day of the Effectiveness Date. 
 2. Covenants

 3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Bondholders as of the date hereof as follows:

 (a) Due Organization. The Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the

delivery by the Bondholders) constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization,
moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 (c) No Conflicts. None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and compliance with the terms hereof by the Company will conflict with, result in any breach or violation of, or default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a 

  

 2 

 
default) under the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other governing instruments, any material contractual obligation to which the
Company is a party or any provision of any law, order, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, except for any such conflicts, violations, defaults or other occurrences that would not have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial
or otherwise) of the Company or prevent, delay or impede the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement. No filing (other than a Form 8-K) with, and no permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any United States court or
governmental agency or body or any other entity is necessary for the execution of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, except where the failure to make such filing or to obtain
such permit, authorization, consent or approval would not prevent, delay or impede the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement. 
 (d) Litigation. There is no action, suit, investigation, complaint or other proceeding pending against the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any other person or
entity that restricts in any material respect or prohibits (or, if successful, would restrict or prohibit) the exercise by any party or beneficiary of its rights under this Agreement or the performance by any party of its obligations under this
Agreement. 
 4. Representations and Warranties of the Bondholders. Each Bondholder hereby, severally and not jointly, represents and

such Bondholder and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company) constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such Bondholder enforceable against such Bondholder in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 (c) No Conflicts. None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Bondholder, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and compliance with the terms hereof by such Bondholder will conflict with, result in any breach or violation of, or default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default)
under such Bondholder’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other governing instruments, any material contractual obligation to which such 

  

 3 

 
Bondholder is a party or any provision of any law, order, rule or regulation applicable to such Bondholder, except for any such conflicts, violations,
defaults or other occurrences that would not have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise) of such Bondholder or prevent, delay or impede the performance by such Bondholder of its obligations under this Agreement. No trust
of which such Bondholder is a trustee requires the consent of any beneficiary to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. No filing with, and no permit, authorization, consent or
approval of, any United States court or governmental agency or body or any other entity is necessary for the execution of this Agreement by such Bondholder and the consummation by such Bondholder of the transactions contemplated hereby, except where
the failure to make such filing or to obtain such permit, authorization, consent or approval would not prevent, delay or impede the performance by such Bondholder of its obligations under this Agreement.

the Company) and has had sufficient access to the Company necessary for such Bondholder to decide to grant its approval, ratification, confirmation and consent to the Proposed Amendments. Such Bondholder acknowledges that the financial statements of
the Company are subject to the Restatement, and has granted its approval, ratification, confirmation and consent to the Proposed Amendments with full knowledge of the pending Restatement. 
 5. Revocation of Consents. The consent granted pursuant to Section 2 hereof shall become null and void and have no further effect if the
Supplemental Indenture is not executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee on the Effectiveness Date. Nothing in this Section 5 shall relieve any party of liability for breach of this Agreement. 
  

 4

Notes and the 2011 Notes shall no longer have the right to revoke such consent except in accordance with Section 5 hereof. 
 (b) Amendments, etc. No amendment, modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any of the Bondholders or the Company from any provision of this

given. 
 (c) Disclosure. Each Bondholder hereby consents to public disclosure, including in a press release and a Form
8-K to be filed with the SEC, of the identity of such Bondholder, the aggregate principal amount of Notes that will be bound by this Agreement and the nature of its commitments, arrangements and understandings pursuant to this Agreement. Each
Bondholder agrees that it shall not make any public announcement or public disclosure regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein (except to the extent required by applicable law or legal process) without the prior written
consent of the Company.

principal amount of Notes beneficially owned by each Bondholder party hereto strictly confidential; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of Notes beneficially owned by the Bondholders party hereto may be disclosed and
(ii) the principal amount of Notes beneficially owned by any Bondholder may only be disclosed (A) with the written consent of such Bondholder; (B) to affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company, including
legal counsel, the Trustee and other persons reasonably required in order to enter into the Supplemental Indenture, (C) to the extent required by law, including securities laws, or by subpoena or similar legal process, provided, if appropriate,
that the non-disclosing parties have been given an opportunity to defend, limit or protect such disclosure, (D) in connection with any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or (E) to
the extent such terms (x) become publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6(d) or (y) become available to the disclosing party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the non-disclosing
parties. 
 (e) Notice. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if
delivered personally, telecopied (with confirmation), 

  

 5 

 
mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) or delivered by an express courier (with confirmation) to the Company at 1000 American

notice). 
 (f) Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or

 (g) Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
 (h) Entire
Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding of the Bondholders and the Company, and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture. 
 (i) Specific Performance; Enforcement. Each of the parties hereto recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other party to sustain damages for which it
would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages, and therefore, each of the parties hereto agrees that in the event of any such breach the aggrieved party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants and
agreements and injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. The parties agree that they shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement
in the courts of the State of New York and any Federal court, sitting in the state of New York, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In addition, each of the parties hereto (i) consents to
submit such party to the personal jurisdiction of any Federal court located in the State of New York or any New York state court in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees
that such party will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that such party will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby in any court other than a Federal court sitting in the state of New York or a New York state court and (iv) waives any right to trial by jury with respect to any claim or proceeding related to or arising out of this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. 
  

 6 

 (j) Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all
of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same
counterpart. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signatures of the parties hereto.
