 (vii) comply in all material respects with all applicable laws.

 (d) As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall:

under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement rely on the position of the Commission in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (pub. avail. May 13, 1988) 

  
 5 

 
and Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (pub. avail. June 5, 1991), as interpreted in the Commission’s letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July 2, 1993 and similar no-action
letters and (ii) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act in connection with any secondary resale transaction, which must be covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling security
holder information required by Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K under the Act if the resales are of New Securities obtained by such Holder in exchange for Securities acquired by such Holder directly from the Company or one of
its Affiliates. Accordingly, each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that: 
 (i) any New Securities to be received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business; 
 (ii) at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder will have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities or the New
Securities within the meaning of the Act; and

 and to make such other representations as may be necessary under applicable Commission rules, regulations or interpretations to render the use
of the Form S-4 or other appropriate form under the Act available. 
 (f) If, in the reasonable opinion of the Initial
Purchasers, an Initial Purchaser is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the exchange of Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, at the request of the Initial Purchasers, the Company shall
issue and deliver to the Initial Purchasers or the person purchasing New Securities registered under a Shelf Registration Statement as contemplated by Section 3 hereof from the Initial Purchasers, in exchange for such Securities, a like
principal amount of New Securities. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the CUSIP Service Bureau to issue the same CUSIP number for such New Securities as for New Securities issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange
Offer. 
 3. Shelf Registration. (a) If (i) due to any change in law or applicable interpretations thereof by
the Commission’s staff, the Company determines upon advice of its outside counsel that it is not permitted to effect the Registered Exchange Offer as contemplated by Section 2 hereof; (ii) for any other reason the Registered Exchange
Offer is not consummated within 365 days of the date hereof; (iii) any Holder (other than the Initial Purchasers) is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer other than by reason of such Holder being an Affiliate of the
Company; (iv) based on their reasonable opinion, the Initial Purchasers so request with respect to Securities that are not eligible to be exchanged for New Securities in the Registered Exchange Offer that are held by them following consummation
of the Registered Exchange Offer, such request being in writing and delivered to the Company; or (v) in the case that the Initial Purchasers participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or acquire New Securities pursuant to Section 2(f)
hereof, in their reasonable opinion the Initial Purchasers do not receive freely tradeable New Securities in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment (it being understood that (A) the requirement that the Initial
Purchasers deliver a 

  
 6 

 
Prospectus containing the information required by Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Act in connection with sales of New Securities acquired in exchange for such Securities shall
result in such New Securities being not “freely tradeable” and (B) the requirement that an Exchanging Dealer deliver a Prospectus in connection with sales of New Securities acquired in the Registered Exchange Offer in exchange for
Securities acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities shall not result in such New Securities being not “freely tradeable”), the Company shall effect a Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with
subsection (b) below. 
 (b)(i) The Company shall as promptly as practicable file with the Commission and shall use
its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective under the Act within 365 days after the Closing Date, a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Securities or the New Securities, as applicable, by the
Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that no Holder (other than the Initial Purchasers) shall be
entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder (it being understood that Holders who would
have received freely transferable Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer had they not (A) failed to duly tender their Securities for exchange pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer (other than the Initial Purchasers in
connection with Securities held by them constituting any portion of an unsold allotment), or otherwise failed to comply with the requirements of the Registered Exchange Offer as provided in Section 2 hereof or (B) failed to furnish to the
Company such information as the Company may request in accordance with Section 4(o) in connection with a Shelf Registration Statement, shall not retain any rights under this Agreement, including any right to have Securities owned by them
included in any Shelf Registration Statement); and provided further that, with respect to New Securities received by the Initial Purchasers in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment, the Company may, if
permitted by current interpretations by the Commission’s staff, file a post-effective amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement containing the information required by Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K of the Act, as
applicable, in satisfaction of its obligations under this subsection with respect thereto, and any such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as so amended, shall be referred to herein as, and governed by the provisions herein applicable to, a
Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (ii) The Company shall, except as permitted under Section 4(k)(ii), keep the Shelf
Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the Act, in order to permit the Prospectus forming part thereof to be usable by Holders for a period (the “Shelf Registration Period”) from the date the
Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission until (A) the first anniversary thereof or (B) the earlier date upon which all the Securities or New Securities, as applicable, covered by the Shelf Registration
Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (iii) The Company shall cause the Shelf Registration
Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or such amendment or supplement, (A) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements
of the Act; and (B) not to contain any untrue statement of a 

  
 7 

 
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading. 
 4. Additional Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf
Registration Statement and, to the extent applicable, any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply. 
 (a) The Company shall: 
 (i) furnish to the Initial Purchasers and
to counsel for the Majority Holders, not less than five Business Days prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any Shelf Registration Statement, and each amendment thereof and each

pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement as selling security holders. 
 (b) The Company shall ensure that: 

(i) any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any Prospectus forming part thereof and any amendment or

(ii)-(v) of this Section 4(c) shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the Company shall have remedied the basis for such suspension): 

(i) when a Registration Statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission
for any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information;

 (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 

(v) of the happening of any event that requires any change in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that, as of
such date, they (A) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and (B) do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 
 (d) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the qualification of the securities therein for sale in any jurisdiction and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

 (e) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Securities covered by any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, at
least one copy of such Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including all material incorporated therein by reference, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including exhibits incorporated

covered by any Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including the Preliminary Prospectus) included in such Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder may reasonably
request. The Company consents to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (g) The Company shall furnish to each Exchanging Dealer
which so requests, without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective 

  
 9

Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the New Securities covered by the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 

(i) Prior to the Registered Exchange Offer or any other offering of Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company shall
arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities or the New Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder shall reasonably request and shall maintain such qualification in effect so long as required;
provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits in any such jurisdiction where
it is not then so subject. 
 (j) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
of certificates representing New Securities or Securities to be issued or sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as Holders may request at least two Business

 (ii) Upon the happening of any event of the kind described
in Section (c)(v) hereof, or the determination by the Company that, in its reasonable judgment and upon written advice of counsel, the continued effectiveness and use of the Shelf Registration Statement would require the disclosure of confidential
information or interfere with any financing, acquisition, reorganization or other material transaction involving the Company, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Securities or New

  
 10 

 
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 4(f) hereof (or a notice from
the Company that such Holder may resume use of the existing Prospectus), and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then
in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. If the Company shall give any such notice to suspend the disposition of Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, the
Company shall extend the period during which the Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the
date when the Holders shall have (A) received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions or (B) a notice permitting use of the existing Prospectus. The Company may give any such notice only twice
during any 365-day period and any such suspensions may not exceed 30 days for each suspension and there may not be more than two suspensions in effect during any 365-day period. 

(l) Not later than the effective date of any Registration Statement, the Company shall provide a CUSIP number for the Securities or the
New Securities, as the case may be, registered under such Registration Statement and provide the Trustee with printed certificates for such Securities or New Securities, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 

(m) The Company shall comply in all material respects with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and shall make
generally available to its security holders an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act as soon as practicable after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement and in any event no later than 90
days after the end of a 12-month period (or 180 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement.

 (n) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act in a timely manner. 

(o) The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company
such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of such securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in such Registration Statement. The Company may exclude from such Shelf Registration Statement the
Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. 
 (p) In
the case of any Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall enter into customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all other appropriate actions in order to expedite or facilitate the
registration or the disposition of the Securities, and in connection therewith, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain indemnification provisions and procedures no less favorable than those set forth in
Section 6 hereof. 

  
 11

participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders or any such underwriter all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the
Company and its subsidiaries; provided, however, that, if any such records, documents or other information are related to pending or proposed acquisitions or dispositions, or otherwise related to matters reasonably considered by the
Company to constitute sensitive or proprietary information, the Company need not provide such records, documents or information unless the foregoing parties enter into a confidentiality agreement in customary form and reasonably acceptable to such
parties and the Company; 
 (ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and
auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders or any such underwriter, legal counsel, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations;
provided, however, that such information may not be used for any other purpose than due diligence and provided further, however, that any information that is designated in writing by the Company, in good faith, as confidential
at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by the Holders or any such underwriter, legal counsel, accountant or agent, unless such disclosure is made in connection with an arbitration or court proceeding or required by
law, or such information becomes available to the public generally or through a third party without an accompanying obligation of confidentiality; 
 (iii) make such representations and warranties to the Holders of Securities registered thereunder and the underwriters, if any, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to
underwriters in primary underwritten offerings and covering matters including, but not limited to, those set forth in the Purchase Agreement; 
 (iv) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Underwriters, if any)
addressed to each selling Holder and the underwriters, if any, covering such matters as are customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such Holders and underwriters;

 (v) obtain comfort letters and updates thereof from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the
Registration Statement), addressed to each selling Holder of Securities registered thereunder and the underwriters, if any, provided that such letters need not be addressed to any Holder to whom, in the reasonable opinion of the Company’s
independent public accountants, addressing such letter is not permissible under applicable accounting standards, in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten
offerings; 

  
 12 

 (vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested
by the Majority Holders or the Managing Underwriters, if any, including those to evidence compliance with Section 4(k) and with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company; and

supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as the Company has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such filing. 

The actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of this Section 4(q) shall be performed at (A) the effectiveness of such
Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto and (B) each closing under any underwriting or similar agreement as and to the extent required thereunder. 

(r) In the case of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall: 

(i) make reasonably available for inspection by the Initial Purchasers, and any legal counsel, accountant or other agent

information is related to pending or proposed acquisitions or dispositions, or otherwise related to matters reasonably acceptable to such parties and the Company to constitute sensitive or proprietary information, the Company need not provide such
records, documents or information unless the foregoing parties enter into a confidentiality agreement in customary form and reasonably acceptable to such parties and the Company; 

(ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information
reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or any such attorney, accountant or agent in connection with any such Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that such
information may not be used for any purpose other than due diligence and provided further, however, that any information that is designated in writing by the Company, in good faith, as confidential at the time of delivery of such information
shall be kept confidential by the Initial Purchasers or any such attorney, accountant or agent, unless such disclosure is made in connection with an arbitration or court proceeding or required by law, or such information becomes available to the
public through a third party without an accompanying obligation of confidentiality; 
 (iii) make such
representations and warranties to the Initial Purchasers, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in primary underwritten offerings and covering matters including, but not limited to, those set forth in the
Purchase Agreement; 

  
 13 

 (iv) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which
counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers and their counsel, addressed to the Initial Purchasers, covering such matters as are customarily covered in opinions requested in
underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or their counsel; 
 (v) obtain comfort letters and updates thereof from the independent certified public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of
the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed to the Initial Purchasers, in customary form and covering matters
of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings, or if requested by the Initial Purchasers or their counsel in lieu of a comfort letter, an agreed-upon procedures letter under Statement on
Auditing Standards No. 35, covering matters requested by the Initial Purchasers or their counsel; and 

(vi) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or their counsel,
including those to evidence compliance with Section 4(k) hereof and with conditions customarily contained in underwriting agreements; 
 provided, however, that the Company will be required to perform the foregoing actions set forth in clauses (i) through (vi) only upon the reasonable request by the Initial
Purchasers to the Company or the reasonable request in writing to the Company by one or more Broker-Dealers who certify to the Initial Purchasers and the Company in writing that they anticipate they will receive New Securities for their own account
in the Registered Exchange Offer for Securities that were acquired by such Broker-Dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities, and, based on the position of the Commission as described in Section 2(e) hereof, will be
required to satisfy the prospectus delivery obligation under the Act in connection with the resale of such New Securities; and provided further, that the Company will not be required to amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement for a period exceeding the Exchange Offer Registration Period, and such Broker-Dealers shall not be authorized by the Company to deliver and shall not deliver such Prospectus after such period in connection with
resales contemplated in this Section 4(r); and provided further, that the Company will be obligated to deal only with one entity representing such Broker-Dealers, which shall be Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated, unless it elects not to act as such representative, and to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of only one counsel representing such Broker-Dealers, which shall be the counsel to the Initial Purchasers, unless such counsel elects not
to so act, and to cause to be delivered only one, if any, comfort letter with respect to the Prospectus in the form existing on the expiration of the Registered Exchange Offer and with respect to each subsequent amendment or supplement to the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement, if any, effected during the period specified above. 

  
 14 

 The foregoing actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of this
Section 4(r) shall be performed at the close of the Registered Exchange Offer and the effective date of any post-effective amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 

(s) If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon delivery of any physical certificates representing the Securities by
Holders to the Company (or to such other person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the physical certificates representing the New Securities, the Company shall mark, or cause to be marked, on the Securities so exchanged that such Securities
are being cancelled in exchange for the New Securities. In no event shall the Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 
 (t) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to confirm that the ratings issued to the Securities prior to their initial sale will apply to the Securities or the New Securities, as the
case may be, covered by a Registration Statement. 
 (u) In the event that any Broker-Dealer shall underwrite any Securities or
participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the FINRA Rules) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent
or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company shall assist such Broker-Dealer in complying with the FINRA Rules. 
 (v) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities or the New Securities, as the case may be, covered by a
Registration Statement. 
 5. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all expenses incurred in connection with the
performance of its obligations under Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof and, in the event of any Shelf Registration Statement, will reimburse the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm or counsel (which shall initially be
Shearman & Sterling LLP, but which may, with the written consent of the Initial Purchasers, be another nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities matters designated by the Majority Holders) to act as counsel for the Holders in
connection therewith, and, in the case of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, will reimburse the Initial Purchasers for the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel acting in connection therewith. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting
discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 6. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, covered by any Registration
Statement, the Initial Purchasers and, with respect to any Prospectus delivery as contemplated in Section 4(h) hereof, each Exchanging Dealer, the directors, officers and employees of each such Holder, the Initial Purchasers or Exchanging
Dealer and each person who controls any such Holder, the Initial Purchasers or Exchanging Dealer within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or
any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based 

  
 15 

 
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, including all documents
incorporated by reference therein or in any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified
party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in
any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the party claiming indemnification specifically for inclusion therein; provided further, however, that with respect to any untrue statement or omission of a material fact made in
any preliminary Prospectus, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased the Securities or New Securities, as the
case may be, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder occurs under the circumstance where it shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment that (i) the
untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the preliminary Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus, (ii) the Company had previously furnished copies of the Prospectus to such Holder prior to the written confirmation of the
sale of such Securities or New Securities and (iii) such loss, claim, damage or liability results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities or New
Securities, as the case may be, to such person, a copy of the Prospectus; and provided further, however, that the Company shall not be liable to an indemnified party with respect to any Prospectus or Registration Statement or any amendment or
supplement thereof to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action of such indemnified party arises out of, or is based upon, (i) the use of any Registration Statement during a period when a stop order has been issued by
the Commission in respect thereof or (ii) the use of the Prospectus during a period when the use of the Prospectus has been suspended in accordance with the instructions of the Company because of the discovery of any untrue statement or
omission of a material fact therein, provided that all Holders of Securities or New Securities received prior written notice of such stop order or suspension and such indemnified party knowingly and voluntarily continued to use such
Prospectus or Registration Statement. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. 
 The Company also agrees to indemnify as provided in this Section 6(a) or contribute as provided in Section 6(d) hereof to Losses of each underwriter, if any, of Securities or New Securities, as
the case may be, registered under a Shelf Registration Statement, their directors, officers, employees or agents and each person who controls such underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Initial Purchasers
and the selling Holders provided in this Section 6(a) and shall, if requested by any Holder, enter into an underwriting agreement reflecting such agreement, as provided in Section 4(p) hereof. 

  
 16 

 (b) Each Holder of securities covered by a Registration Statement (including the Initial
Purchasers, but only if such Initial Purchaser is a Holder, in such capacity) severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs such Registration Statement and each
person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each such Holder, but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder
furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any such Holder may otherwise have.

 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 6 or notice of the commencement of any action,
such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying
party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 6 unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of
substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section 6. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which
indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified
party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local
counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate
counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of
such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties,
settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified
parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and
does not include any statements as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

  
 17 

 (d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such
indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the Initial Purchase and the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no case shall the Initial Purchasers
be responsible, in the aggregate, for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to such Security, or in the case of a New Security, applicable to the Security that was exchangeable into such New Security, nor shall any
Holder be responsible, in the aggregate for any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which Registrable Securities were sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by
reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission which resulted in such Losses, nor shall any underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the securities
purchased by such underwriter under the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of (i) the total net proceeds from the Initial Purchase (before deducting
expenses) as set forth on the cover page of the Final Memorandum and (ii) the total amount of additional interest which the Company was not required to pay as a result of registering the securities covered by the Registration Statement which
resulted in such Losses. Benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions less any expenses reimbursed pursuant to Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement, and benefits received
by any other Holders shall be deemed to be equal to the value of receiving Securities or New Securities, as applicable, registered under the Act. Benefits received by any underwriter shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts
and commissions, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement which resulted in such Losses. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the indemnifying party, on the one hand, or by the indemnified party, on the other hand, the intent of the parties and
their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the
Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, in no event shall a Holder
be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities or New Securities sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Furthermore, notwithstanding the provisions 

  
 18 

 
of this Section 6, no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty
of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section, each person who controls a Holder within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of such Holder shall have the same rights
to contribution as such Holder, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall
have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this Section 6. 
 (e) The provisions of this Section 6 will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Company or any of the officers, directors or
controlling persons referred to in this Section 6 hereof, and will survive the sale by a Holder of securities covered by a Registration Statement. 
 7. Underwritten Registrations. (a) If any of the Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, covered by any Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the
Managing Underwriters shall be selected by the Majority Holders. 
 (b) No person may participate in any underwritten offering
pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement, unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons
entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements. 
 8. Registration Defaults. If any of the following events shall occur, then the Company shall pay
liquidated damages (the “Registration Default Damages”) to the Holders of Securities in respect of the Securities as follows: 
 (a) if on or prior to the 365th day following the Closing Date, neither the Registered Exchange Offer has been completed nor the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, then Registration
Default Damages shall accrue on the Registrable Securities at a rate of 0.25% per annum and shall be payable in accordance with the interest payment provisions of the Securities; or 

(b) if any Registration Statement required by this Agreement has been declared effective but ceases to be effective at any
time at which it is required to be effective under this Agreement, then commencing on the day the Registration Statement ceases to be effective, Registration Default Damages shall accrue on the Registrable Securities at a rate of 0.25% per
annum and shall be payable in accordance with the interest payment provisions of the Securities; 
 provided, however, that
(i) upon completion of the Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement (in the case of paragraph (a) above), or (ii) upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement which had ceased to
remain effective (in the case of paragraph (b) above), Registration Default Damages shall cease to accrue. 

  
 19 

 9. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered into, and agrees not to
enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders herein or that otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. 

10. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers
or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities outstanding; provided
that, with respect to any matter that directly or indirectly affects the rights of the Initial Purchasers hereunder, the Company shall obtain the written consent of the Initial Purchasers against which such amendment, qualification, supplement,
waiver or consent is to be effective; provided further, that no amendment, qualification, supplement, waiver or consent with respect to Section 8 hereof shall be effective as against any Holder of Registrable Securities unless consented
to in writing by such Holder; and provided further that the provisions of this Section 10 may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless
the Company has obtained the written consent of the Initial Purchasers and each Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing (except the foregoing provisos), a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates
exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by the Majority
Holders, determined on the basis of Securities or New Securities, as the case may be, being sold rather than registered under such Registration Statement. 
 11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier or air courier guaranteeing
overnight delivery: 
 (a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Company in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 11, which address initially is, with respect to each Holder, the address of such Holder maintained by the registrar under the Indenture; 

(b) if to the Initial Purchasers, initially at the address or addresses set forth in the Purchase Agreement; and

 (c) if to the Company, initially at its address set forth in the Purchase Agreement. 

All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received. 

The Initial Purchasers or the Company by notice to the other parties may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent
notices or communications. 

  
 20 

 12. Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided to it herein, in the Indenture or, in the case of a Holder who is an Initial Purchaser, in the Purchase Agreement or granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights
under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance
the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 
 13. Successors. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, including, without the need for an express assignment or any consent by the Company thereto, subsequent Holders of Securities and the New Securities. The Company hereby
agrees to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder of Securities and the New Securities, and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if an original party hereto. 

14. Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto agrees that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in any State or U.S. federal court in The City of New York and County of New York, and waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such
proceeding, and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts in any suit, action or proceeding. 
 15. Third Party
Beneficiary. The Holders shall be third party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the
extent they deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect their rights or the rights of Holders hereunder. 
 16.
Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart by facsimile or
electronic .pdf shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. 
 17. Headings. The section headings
used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 18. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 19. Severability. In the
event that any one of more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision
in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired or affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 20. Securities Held by the Company, etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of
principal amount of Securities or New Securities is required 

  
 21 

 
hereunder, Securities or New Securities, as applicable, held by the Company or its Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Securities or New Securities if such subsequent Holders are deemed
to be Affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Securities or New Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

 ANNEX A 
 Each broker-dealer that receives new securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such new securities.
The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act. This prospectus, as it may be amended or
supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of new securities received in exchange for securities where such securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or
other trading activities. The company has agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending on the close of business 180 days after the expiration date, it will make this prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any
such resale. See “Plan of Distribution”. 

 ANNEX B 
 Each broker-dealer that receives new securities for its own account in exchange for securities, where such securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other
trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such new securities. See “Plan of Distribution”. 

 ANNEX C 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that receives new securities for
its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such new securities. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a
broker-dealer in connection with resales of new securities received in exchange for securities where such securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The company has agreed that, starting on the
expiration date and ending on the close of business 180 days after the expiration date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. 

The company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of new securities by brokers-dealers. New securities received by broker-dealers
for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the new securities or a combination of such
methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive
compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such new securities. Any broker-dealer that resells new securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange
Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such new securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act and any profit of any such resale of new securities and any commissions or
concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to
admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act. 
 For a period of 180 days after the expiration
date, the company will promptly send additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The company has agreed to pay all expenses
incident to the Exchange offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the holder of the securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the securities (including any broker-dealers)
against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Act.

 Ladies and Gentlemen:

 Introductory. The Kansas City Southern Railway Company, a Missouri corporation (the “Company”), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Kansas City Southern (the “Parent”), proposes to issue and sell to the several initial purchasers named in Schedule A hereto (the “Initial Purchasers”), acting severally and not jointly,
the respective amounts set forth in such Schedule A of $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.300% Senior Notes due 2043 (the “Notes”). J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC have agreed to act as representatives of the several Initial Purchasers (in such capacity, the “Representatives”) in connection with the offering and sale of
the Notes. 
 The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture, to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined in
Section 2 hereof) (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Notes will be issued in book-entry form in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary”). Pursuant to the Indenture, the Notes will be guaranteed (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”), jointly and
severally, on a senior unsecured, unconditional basis by the entities listed on Schedule B hereto (the “Guarantors”). 

 The holders of the Securities will be entitled to the benefits of a registration rights
agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Company and the Representatives, pursuant to which the Company will agree to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”), under the circumstances set forth therein, (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (collectively, the
“Securities Act”) relating to an additional series of debt securities of the Company with terms substantially identical to the Securities (the “Exchange Securities”), to be offered in exchange for the Securities
(the “Exchange Offers”) and (ii) to the extent required by the Registration Rights Agreement, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act relating to the resale by certain holders of the
Securities, and in each case, to use its best efforts to cause such registration statements to be declared effective. 
 The
Company has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser copies of a Preliminary Offering Memorandum, dated April 24, 2013 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), and has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser
copies of a Pricing Supplement, dated the date hereof (the “Pricing Supplement”) and attached as Exhibit A hereto, describing the terms of the Securities, each for use by such Initial Purchaser in connection with its solicitation of
offers to purchase the Securities. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Supplement are herein referred to as the “Pricing Disclosure Package.” Promptly after the time this purchase agreement (this
“Agreement”) is executed by the parties hereto (the “Time of Execution”), the Company will prepare and deliver to each Initial Purchaser a final offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the “Offering
Memorandum”). 
 The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on
the terms and in the manner set forth herein and in the Pricing Disclosure Package and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers (the
“Subsequent Purchasers”) at any time after the Time of Execution. The Securities are to be offered and sold to or through the Initial Purchasers without being registered with the Commission under the Securities Act, in reliance upon
exemptions therefrom. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors who acquire Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that Securities may only be resold or otherwise transferred, after the date hereof, if such Securities
are registered for sale under the Securities Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemptions afforded by Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) or
Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”)). 
 All references in this Agreement to the Preliminary
Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum shall be deemed to mean and include any document that is filed with the Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated
thereunder (collectively, the “Exchange Act”), prior to 4:30 p.m. New York City time on the date hereof (the “Initial Sale Time”), and is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering
Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments and supplements to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum shall be deemed to include the filing of any document
under the Exchange Act after the Initial Sale Time 

  
 2 

 
and prior to the consummation of the offering of the Securities, which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, as the
case may be. 
 Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby confirms its agreements with the Initial Purchasers as follows:

 SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties of the Company and the Guarantors. 

Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to each Initial Purchaser as of the date
hereof and as of the Closing Date (in each case, a “Representation Date”), as follows: 
 a) No Registration
Required. Subject to compliance by the Initial Purchasers with the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 hereof and with the procedures set forth in Section 7 hereof, it is not necessary in connection with the offer,
sale and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers and to each Subsequent Purchaser in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the Offering Memorandum to register the Securities under the Securities Act or, until such time as the
Exchange Securities are issued pursuant to an effective registration statement, to qualify the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (collectively, the
“Trust Indenture Act”). 
 b) No Integration of Offerings or General Solicitation. None of the Company,
its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act and, for the avoidance of doubt, including the Parent) (each, an “Affiliate”), or any person acting on its or any of their behalf (other than the Initial
Purchasers, as to whom the Company and the Guarantors make no representation or warranty) has, directly or indirectly, solicited any offer to buy or offered to sell, or will, directly or indirectly, solicit any offer to buy or offer to sell, in the
United States or to any United States citizen or resident, any security which is or would be integrated with the sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the Securities to be registered under the Securities Act. None of the Company, its
Affiliates, or any person acting on its or any of their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company and the Guarantors make no representation or warranty) has engaged or will engage, in connection with the offering of the
Securities, in any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 under the Securities Act. With respect to those Securities sold in reliance upon Regulation S, (i) none of the Company, its Affiliates or any
person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company and the Guarantors make no representation or warranty) has engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts within the meaning of Regulation S and
(ii) each of the Company and its Affiliates and any person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company and the Guarantors make no representation or warranty) has complied and will comply with the
offering restrictions set forth in Regulation S. 
 c) Eligibility for Resale under Rule 144A. The Securities are
eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A and will not be, at the Closing Date, of the same class as securities listed on a national securities exchange registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act or quoted in a U.S. automated interdealer
quotation system.

 d) Pricing Disclosure Package; Offering Memorandum; Company Additional Written
Communication. Neither the Pricing Disclosure Package, as of the Initial Sale Time, nor the Offering Memorandum, as of its date or (as amended or supplemented in accordance with Section 3(a), if applicable) as of the Closing Date, contains
or will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that this
representation shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in
writing by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Offering Memorandum or amendment or supplement thereto, as the case may be, it being understood and agreed that the only such
information furnished by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof. The Pricing Disclosure Package contains, and the Offering Memorandum will contain, all the
information specified in, and meeting the requirements of, Rule 144A. The Company has not distributed and will not distribute, prior to the later of the Closing Date and the completion of the Initial Purchasers’ distribution of the Securities,
any offering material in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities other than (i) the Pricing Disclosure Package, (ii) the Offering Memorandum and (iii) any electronic road show or other written communications that, if
the offering of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement were conducted as a public offering pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act with the Commission, would constitute an “issuer free writing
prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act (collectively, “Company Additional Written Communication”) reviewed and consented to by the Representatives and listed on Annex I hereto. Each such Company
Additional Written Communication, when taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package, did not as of the Initial Sale Time, and will not at the Closing Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that this representation shall not apply to statements in or omissions from each such Company Additional
Written Communication made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in any Company Additional Written Communication, it being
understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof. 

e) Incorporated Documents. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package
or the Offering Memorandum at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, complied or will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights
and remedies of creditors or by general equitable principles (whether applied by a court of law or equity), including the principle that equitable remedies may be granted only at the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may
be brought (the “Enforceability Exceptions”), and except as rights to indemnification under the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable law. 

h) Authorization of the Indenture. The Indenture has been duly authorized by each of the Company and the Guarantors, and, on the
Closing Date, will have been duly executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Guarantors and will constitute a valid and binding agreement of each of the Company and the Guarantors, enforceable against each of the Company and the
Guarantors in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions. 

i) Authorization of the Securities and Exchange Securities. The Securities to be purchased by the Initial Purchasers from the
Company will be, at the Closing Date, in the form contemplated by the Indenture, have been duly authorized by each of the Company and the Guarantors for issuance and sale pursuant to this Agreement and the Indenture and, at the Closing Date, will
have been duly executed by each of the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable, and, when authenticated in the manner provided for in the Indenture and delivered against payment of the purchase price therefor, will constitute valid and binding
obligations of each of the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions, and will be entitled to the benefits of the
Indenture. The Exchange Securities when duly and validly authorized for issuance by each of the Company and the Guarantors, and issued and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the
Exchange Offer, will constitute valid and binding obligations of each of the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable, enforceable against each of the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable, in accordance with their terms, except as the
enforcement thereof may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. 

j) Description of the Securities, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement. The Securities, the Indenture and the
Registration Rights Agreement conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum. 
 k) Accuracy of Statements. The statements in, or incorporated by reference in, each of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum under the captions “Description of Notes”

material respects, the matters referred to therein.

 l) No Material Adverse Change. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Pricing
Disclosure Package, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Pricing Disclosure Package there has been no material adverse change, or any development that could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse
change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, properties, results of operations or prospects, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, of any of the Company, the Guarantors or
their respective subsidiaries, considered as one entity (any such change is called a “Material Adverse Change”). 
 m) Independent Accountants. KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), who have audited the consolidated financial statements of the Parent and its subsidiaries and delivered their report with respect to

Offering Memorandum, are independent public accountants with respect to the Company and the Parent within the meaning and as required by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations published thereunder and are an
independent registered public accounting firm with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

Financial Statements. The financial statements together with the related notes thereto, incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum, present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Parent and
its subsidiaries as of and at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods specified. Such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”) as applied in the United States applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, except as may be expressly stated in the related notes thereto. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language
included or incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum fairly presents the information called for in all material respects and is prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines
applicable thereto. 
 o) Incorporation and Good Standing of the Company, the Guarantors and their Subsidiaries. Each of
the Company, the Guarantors and their significant subsidiaries (as defined in Rule 1-02(10) of Regulation S-X, the “Significant Subsidiaries”) has been duly incorporated or formed, as applicable, and is validly existing as a
corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, as applicable, and has corporate or limited liability company power and authority to own or lease, as the
case may be, and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum and, in the case of the Company and the Guarantors, to enter into and perform its obligations under this
Agreement. Each of the Company, the Guarantors and each of their Significant Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the 

  
 6 

 
ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a material adverse effect (i) on the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, properties, results of operations or prospects, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, of the
Company, the Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries, considered as one entity or (ii) the ability of the Company or the Guarantors to perform their obligations under, and consummate the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement, the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities (each, a “Material Adverse Effect”). All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Significant Subsidiary of the Parent have been duly authorized
and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Parent, directly or through its subsidiaries, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or claim. The Parent does not have any subsidiary
not listed on Exhibit 21 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K which is required to be so listed. 
 p) No Conflicts. The
Company’s and the Guarantors’ execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Notes and the Guarantees, as applicable (the “Transaction Documents”) and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, by the Pricing Disclosure Package and by the Offering Memorandum, including, without limitation, the application of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities as described in the
Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and will not result in any violation of the Charter Documents of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Significant
Subsidiaries, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or a Debt Repayment Triggering Event (as defined below) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or
assets of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Significant Subsidiaries pursuant to, or require the consent of any other party to, any indenture, mortgage, loan or credit agreement, deed of trust, note, contract, franchise, lease or other
agreement or instrument to which the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Significant Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their
Significant Subsidiaries is subject (each, an “Existing Instrument”), and (iii) will not result in any violation of any statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the Company, the Guarantors or any
of their Significant Subsidiaries, of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any of its or their properties, as
applicable, except, with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) only, for such defaults or violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. As used herein, a “Debt Repayment Triggering
Event” means any event or condition which gives, or with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both would give, the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder’s behalf)
issued by the Company or the Guarantors, the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness by the Company, the Guarantors or any of their Significant Subsidiaries. 

q) No Further Authorizations or Approvals Required. No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or
filing with, any court or other governmental or 

  
 7 

 
regulatory authority or agency is required for the Company’s or the Guarantors’ execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except (i) such as have been obtained or made by the Company or the Guarantors and are in full force and effect under the Securities Act or applicable state securities or blue sky laws,
(ii) such as may be required by the securities laws of the several states of the United States and (iii) such as may be required by U.S. federal and state securities laws with respect to the Company’s or the Guarantors’
obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 r) No Material Actions or Proceedings. Except as disclosed in the
Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum, there are no legal or governmental actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the Parent’s knowledge, threatened (i) against or affecting the Company, the Guarantors or any of their
respective subsidiaries or (ii) which have as the subject thereof any officer or director of, or property owned or leased by, the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective subsidiaries where any such action, suit or proceeding, if
determined adversely to the Company or such subsidiary, would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 s) Regulation S. The Company, its affiliates and all persons acting on its of their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes no representation) have complied with and
will comply with the offering restrictions requirements of Regulation S in connection with the offering of the Securities outside the United States. 
 t) Company and the Guarantors Not an Investment Company. Neither the Company nor any of the Guarantors is, and after receipt of payment for the Securities and the application of the proceeds
thereof as contemplated under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum will be, required to register as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

 u) No Unlawful Contributions or Other Payments. None of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective
subsidiaries or, to the best of the Parent’s knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee or affiliate of the Company, a Guarantor or any of their respective subsidiaries is aware of or has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that
would result in a violation by such persons of either (i) the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “FCPA”), including, without limitation, making use of the mails or
any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce corruptly in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay or authorization of the payment of any money, or other property, gift, promise to give, or authorization of the giving of anything of
value to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any foreign political party or official thereof or any candidate for foreign political office, in contravention of the FCPA or (ii) the U.K. Bribery Act 2010
(the “Bribery Act”), and the Company, the Guarantors, their respective subsidiaries and, to the best of the Parent’s knowledge, their respective affiliates have conducted their businesses in compliance with the FCPA and the
Bribery Act and have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure, and which are reasonably expected to continue to ensure, continued compliance therewith. 

  
 8 

 v) No Conflict with Money Laundering Laws. The operations of the Company, the
Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance in all material respects with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of
1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency
(collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective
subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the best of the Parent’s knowledge, threatened. 

w) No Conflict with OFAC Laws. None of the Company, the Guarantors, any of their respective subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of
the Parent, any director, officer, agent, employee, affiliate or representative of the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective subsidiaries is an individual or entity (“Person”) currently the subject or target of any
sanctions administered or enforced by the United States Government, including, without limitation, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), the United Nations Security Council
(“UNSC”), the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury (“HMT”), or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions”), nor is the Company or a Guarantor located, organized or resident
in a country or territory that is the subject of Sanctions; and the Company will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the sale of the Securities, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiaries, joint
venture partners or other Person, to fund any activities of or business with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of Sanctions or in any other manner that will result in a violation by any
Person (including any Person participating in the transaction, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise) of Sanctions. 
 x) Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance. There is and has been no failure on the part of the Parent and any of the Parent’s directors or officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with any
applicable provision of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated in connection therewith (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), including Section 402 related to loans and Sections 302 and 906 related to
certifications. 
 y) Internal Controls and Procedures. The Parent maintains a system of internal accounting controls
over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations;
(ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in

prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto. Except as disclosed in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering

Memorandum, since the end of the Company’s most recent audited fiscal year, there has been no material weakness or significant deficiencies in the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting (whether or not remediated).

disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act; and such disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material
information relating to the Company, the Guarantors and their respective subsidiaries is made known to the Parent’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within those entities; and such disclosure controls and
procedures are effective. The Company has carried out evaluations of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as required by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. 

aa) No Immunity from Jurisdiction. The Company, the Guarantors and each of their respective subsidiaries have no immunity from
jurisdiction of any court of (i) any jurisdiction in which they own or lease property or assets, or (ii) the United States or the State of New York or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to themselves or their property and assets or this Agreement, the Indenture or the Registration Rights Agreement or actions to enforce judgments in respect thereof.

April 29, 2013, or such other time and date as the Representatives and the Company shall mutually agree (the time and date of such closing are called the “Closing Date”). 

  
 10 

 c) Offering of the Securities. The Representatives hereby advise the Company that the

	 	(ii)	it will offer and sell the Securities only to (a) persons it reasonably believes are Qualified Institutional Buyers in transactions meeting the requirements of
Rule 144A or (b) upon the terms and conditions set forth in Annex II hereto; 

  

	 	(iii)	it will not offer or sell the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including, but not limited to, the methods described in Rule 502(c)

	 	(iv)	it will offer and sell the Securities (a) as part of its distribution at any time and (b) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the commencement of the
offering and the Closing Date, only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement; accordingly, neither such Initial Purchaser, its affiliates nor any persons acting on its or their behalf have engaged or
will engage in any directed selling efforts (within the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the Securities, and any such Initial Purchaser, its affiliates and any such persons have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions
requirement of Regulation S. 

 SECTION 3. Covenants of the Company and the
Guarantors. 
 Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, covenant and agree with each Initial Purchaser
as follows: 

  
 11 

 a) Preparation of Offering Memorandum; Initial Purchasers’ Review of Proposed
Amendments and Supplements. As promptly as practicable following the Time of Execution and in any event not later than the second business day following the date hereof, the Company will prepare and deliver to the Initial Purchasers the Offering
Memorandum, which shall consist of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum as modified only by the information contained in the Pricing Supplement and other immaterial changes as agreed to by the Representatives (or their counsel). The Company will not
amend or supplement the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement or the Offering Memorandum prior to the Closing Date unless the Initial Purchasers shall previously have been furnished a copy of the proposed amendment or supplement at
least one business day prior to the proposed use or filing, and shall not have objected to such amendment or supplement. 
 b)
Amendments and Supplements to the Offering Memorandum and Other Securities Act Matters. If, prior to the later of (x) the Closing Date and (y) the completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers with the
Subsequent Purchasers, in the reasonable judgment of the Company or the Representatives, (i) any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, as applicable, as then amended
or supplemented, would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or
(ii) it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum to comply with applicable law, the Company agrees to promptly prepare (subject to Section 3 hereof), file with the Commission and furnish at its own expense to
the Initial Purchasers, amendments or supplements to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, as applicable, so that the statements in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum, as applicable, as so amended or
supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, be misleading or so that the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, as applicable, as amended or supplemented, will comply with all applicable law.

 c) Copies of the Offering Memorandum. The Company agrees to furnish the Initial Purchasers, without charge, as many
copies of the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum and any amendments and supplements thereto as they shall have reasonably requested. 
 d) Blue Sky Compliance. The Company shall cooperate with the Representatives and counsel for the Initial Purchasers to qualify or register the Securities for sale under (or obtain exemptions from
qualification or registration under) the state securities or blue sky laws of those jurisdictions designated by the Representatives, shall comply with such laws and shall continue such qualifications, registrations and exemptions in effect so long
as required for the distribution of the Securities. The Company shall not be required to qualify to transact business or to take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not presently
qualified or where it would be subject to taxation as a foreign business. The Company will advise the Representatives promptly of the suspension of the qualification or registration of (or any such exemption relating to) the Securities for offering,
sale or trading in any jurisdiction or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, and in the event of the issuance of any order suspending such qualification, registration or exemption, the Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible moment. 

  
 12 

 e) Use of Proceeds. The Company and the Guarantors shall apply the net proceeds from
the sale of the Securities sold by it in the manner described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum. 
 f) Depositary. The Company and the Guarantors will cooperate with the Initial Purchasers and use its best efforts to permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the
facilities of the Depositary. 
 g) Periodic Reporting Obligations. Prior to the completion of the placement of the
Securities by the Initial Purchasers with the Subsequent Purchasers, the Company or the Parent, as applicable, shall file, on a timely basis, with the Commission all reports and documents required to be filed under Section 13 or 15 of the
Exchange Act. Additionally, at any time when any of the Company or the Parent is not subject to Section 13 or 15 of the Exchange Act, for the benefit of holders and beneficial owners from time to time of the Securities, the Company and the
Parent, as applicable, shall furnish, at its expense, upon request, to holders and beneficial owners of Securities and prospective purchasers of Securities information satisfying the requirements of Rule 144A(d). 

h) Agreement Not to Offer or Sell Additional Securities. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Closing
Date, the Company and the Guarantors will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Representatives), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option
to sell, pledge, transfer or establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under
the Securities Act in respect of, any debt securities of the Company and the Guarantors similar to the Securities or securities exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities similar to the Securities (other than as contemplated by this
Agreement with respect to the Securities). 
 i) No Integration. The Company agrees that it will not and will cause its
Affiliates not to make any offer or sale of securities of the Company of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose
of (i) the sale of the Securities by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to
others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise. 

j) No Restricted Resales. During the period of one year after the Closing Date, the Company will not, and will not permit any of
its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to resell any of the Securities which constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144 that have been reacquired by any of them, except pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act. 

  
 13 

 k) Legended Securities. Each certificate for a Note will bear the legend contained in
“Transfer Restrictions” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum for the time period and upon the other terms stated in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum. 

l) No Manipulation of Price. The Company and the Guarantors will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or
result in, or that has constituted or might reasonably be expected to constitute, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company or the Guarantors to facilitate the sale or resale
of the Securities. 
 The Representatives, on behalf of the several Initial Purchasers, may, in their sole discretion, waive in
writing the performance by the Company or the Guarantors of any one or more of the foregoing covenants or extend the time for their performance. 
 SECTION 4. Payment of Expenses. The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to pay the following costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
performance of its obligations hereunder and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby: (i) all expenses incident to the issuance and delivery of the Securities and the Exchange Securities (including all printing costs),

Securities, (v) all filing fees, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Company, the Guarantors or the Initial Purchasers in connection with qualifying or registering (or obtaining exemptions from the qualification or registration
of) all or any part of the Securities for offer and sale under the state securities or blue sky laws and preparing a “Blue Sky Survey” or memorandum, and any supplements thereto, (vi) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, including
the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Trustee in connection with the Indenture, the Securities and the Exchange Securities, (vii) any fees payable in connection with the rating of the Securities or the Exchange Securities with the
ratings agencies, (viii) all fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of the Company and the Guarantors in connection with approval of the Securities or the Exchange Securities by the Depositary for
“book-entry” transfer and (ix) all other fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section 4. Except as provided in this
Section 4 and Sections 6, 8 and 9 hereof, the Initial Purchasers shall pay their own expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel. 

  
 14 

 SECTION 5. Conditions of the Obligations of the Initial
Purchasers. The obligations of the several Initial Purchasers to purchase and pay for the Securities as provided herein on the Closing Date shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company and the
Guarantors set forth in Section 1 hereof as of each Representation Date and to the timely performance by each of the Company and the Guarantors of its covenants and other obligations hereunder, and to each of the following additional

(ii) there shall not have been any change or decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to in paragraph
(b) of this Section 5 which is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Pricing
Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum; and 
 (iii) there shall not have occurred any downgrading in or
withdrawal of, nor shall any notice have been given of any intended or potential downgrading or withdrawal or of any review for a possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change, the rating accorded any securities of the
Company, the Guarantors or any of their subsidiaries by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act. 

d) Authorizations and Approvals. The Company and the Guarantors shall have obtained all consents, approvals, authorizations and
orders of, and shall have duly made all registrations, qualifications and filings with, any court or regulatory authority or other governmental agency or instrumentality required in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities and the

If any condition specified in this Section 5 is not satisfied when and as required to be satisfied, this Agreement may be terminated
by the Representatives by notice to the Company at 

  
 16 

 
any time on or prior to the Closing Date, which termination shall be without liability on the part of any party to any other party, except that Sections 4, 6, 8, 9 and 17 shall at all times be
effective and shall survive such termination. 
 SECTION 6. Reimbursement of Initial
Purchasers’ Expenses. If this Agreement is terminated by the Representatives pursuant to Section 5, 10 or 11 hereof, or if the sale to the Initial Purchasers of the Securities on the Closing Date is not consummated because of any
refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company or any Guarantor to perform any agreement herein or to comply with any provision hereof, the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to reimburse the Initial Purchasers,
severally, upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses that shall have been reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with the proposed purchase and the offering and sale of the Securities, including but not limited to fees and

SECTION 7. Offer, Sale and Resale Procedures. Each of the Initial Purchasers, on the one hand, and the

may be made in reliance upon Regulation S upon the terms and conditions set forth in Annex II hereto, which Annex II is hereby expressly made a part hereof. 
 (B) The Securities will be offered by approaching prospective Subsequent Purchasers on an individual basis. No general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Rule 502 under the
Securities Act) will be used in the United States in connection with the offering of the Securities.

 “THE SECURITY (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) EVIDENCED HEREBY
WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SECTION 5 OF THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EACH PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY 

  
 17 

 
EVIDENCED HEREBY IS HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT THE SELLER MAY BE RELYING ON THE EXEMPTION FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144A THEREUNDER. THE HOLDER OF THE
SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT (A) SUCH SECURITY MAY BE RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (1)(a) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS
DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (b) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
TO A NON-U.S. PERSON IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 903 OR RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (c) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER (IF
APPLICABLE), (d) TO AN INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITED INVESTOR (AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a)(1), (2), (3) OR (7) OF REGULATION D UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) THAT, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISHES TO THE TRUSTEE A SIGNED LETTER CONTAINING
CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AND AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE AND, IF SUCH TRANSFER IS IN RESPECT OF AN AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF NOTES AT THE TIME OF TRANSFER OF LESS THAN US$250,000, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT OR (e) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE
COMPANY IF THE COMPANY SO REQUESTS), (2) TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AFFILIATES OR (3) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY
OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF THE SECURITY 

  
 18 

 EVIDENCED HEREBY OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN CLAUSE (A) ABOVE. NO
REPRESENTATION CAN BE MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 FOR RESALE OF THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY.” 
 Following the sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers pursuant to the terms hereof, the Initial Purchasers shall not be liable or responsible to the Company for any
losses, damages or liabilities suffered or incurred by the Company, including any losses, damages or liabilities under the Securities Act, arising from or relating to any resale or transfer of any Security by a Subsequent Purchaser. 

SECTION 8. Indemnification. 
 (a) Indemnification of the Initial Purchasers. The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors, officers,
employees, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Initial Purchaser Indemnified Parties” and each, an “Initial
Purchaser Indemnified Party”) against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred (collectively, “Losses” and each, a “Loss”), to which such Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party may become
subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the
Company), insofar as such Loss (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Company Additional Written Communication, the
Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading; and to reimburse each Initial Purchasers Indemnified Party for any and all expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representatives) as such expenses are
reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such Loss or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply
to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in any Company Additional Written Communication, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or
supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company or the Guarantors may otherwise have. 
 (b) Indemnification of the Company and the Guarantors. Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Guarantors, each of their respective
directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company and the 

  
 19 

 
Guarantors within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Company and Guarantors Indemnified Parties” and each, a “Company and Guarantor
Identified Party”), against any Loss to which any Company and Guarantor Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise
(including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Initial Purchaser), insofar as such Loss (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Company Additional Written Communication, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged
omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Company Additional Written Communication, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use therein; and to reimburse any Company and Guarantor Indemnified Party for any and all expenses (including the reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Company) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Company and Guarantor Indemnified Party, in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such Losses or action.
The Company and the Guarantors hereby acknowledge that the only information furnished to the Company by any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in any Company Additional Written Communication, the Pricing Disclosure
Package or the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the first sentence of the sixth paragraph, the second sentence of the eighth paragraph and the tenth and eleventh paragraphs under the
caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may
otherwise have to the Company and Guarantors Indemnified Parties. 
 (c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures.
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this
Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise
than under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 8 or to the extent it is not prejudiced as a proximate result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or
intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to
the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, such indemnified party shall
have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action and to 

  
 20 

 
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party, unless: (i) the employment of such counsel has been
specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying party; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; or (iii) the named parties to any such
action (including any impleaded parties) include both such indemnified party and the indemnifying party or any affiliate of the indemnifying party, and such indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that either (x) there may be one or
more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or such affiliate of the indemnifying party or (y) a conflict may exist between such indemnified party and the indemnifying
party or such affiliate of the indemnifying party (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising
out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to a single firm of local counsel) for all such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in
writing by the Representatives (in the case of counsel representing any Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party) and that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred). Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party
to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next
preceding sentence, in which case the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. 
 (d) Settlements. The indemnifying party under this Section 8 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section 8, the indemnifying party agrees that it
shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying
party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could
have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or
proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

  
 21 

 SECTION 9. Contribution. If the indemnification provided
for in Section 8 hereof is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any Losses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand,
and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the
offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the
Company and the Guarantors, and the total discount received by the Initial Purchasers, bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers,
on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or a Guarantor, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations
set forth in Section 8, any reasonable legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. 

The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this
Section 9. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute
any amount in excess of the discount received by such Initial Purchaser in connection with the Securities purchased by it. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective
purchase commitments as set forth opposite their names in Schedule A. For purposes of this Section 9, each Initial Purchaser Indemnified Party (other than such Initial Purchaser) shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial
Purchaser, and each Company and Guarantor Indemnified Party (other than the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable) shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantors.

 SECTION 10. Default of One or More of the Several Initial
Purchasers. If any one or more of the several Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on the Closing Date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities, which such
defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated,
severally, in the proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such Securities set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate principal amount of such Securities set forth opposite the names of all such
non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representatives with the consent of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, to purchase such Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial
Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on the Closing Date. If any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase such Securities and the aggregate principal amount of such Securities with respect to which such
default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 48 hours
after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 4, 6, 8, 9 and 17 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such
case, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum or
any other documents or arrangements may be effected. 
 As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” shall
be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Initial Purchaser under this Section 10. Any action taken under this Section 10 shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of
such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 11. Termination of this Agreement.
Prior to the Closing Date, this Agreement may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to the Company if at any time (i) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s or the Parent’s securities shall have been suspended or
limited by the Commission or by any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, or trading in securities generally on either the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange,
the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such stock exchanges by the Commission or the FINRA; (ii) a
general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any of federal or New York authorities; (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity involving the United
States or any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial or economic conditions, as
in the judgment of the 

  
 23 

 
Representatives is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities in the manner and on the terms described in the Pricing Disclosure Package or the
Offering Memorandum or to enforce contracts for the sale of securities; (iv) in the judgment of the Representatives there shall have occurred any Material Adverse Change; or (v) there shall have occurred a material disruption in commercial
banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States. Any termination pursuant to this Section 11 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Sections 4 and 6 hereof, and provided
further that Sections 4, 6, 8, 9 and 17 hereof shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect. 

SECTION 12. No Fiduciary Duty. The Company and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that: (i) the
purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company
and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the several Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and each of the Company and the Guarantors is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Initial Purchaser is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial
advisor, agent or fiduciary of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Initial Purchaser has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary
responsibility in favor of the Company or the Guarantors with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising the Company on
other matters) and no Initial Purchaser has any obligation to the Company or the Guarantors with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Initial Purchasers and
their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Guarantors and that the several Initial Purchasers have no obligation to disclose any of such interests
by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company and the Guarantors
have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. 
 This Agreement
supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, the Guarantors and the several Initial Purchasers with respect to the subject matter hereof. Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby waives and
releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the several Initial Purchasers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty. 

SECTION 13. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities,
agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors, of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ officers and of the several Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement (i) will
remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any (A) investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the officers or employees of any Initial Purchasers, or any person
