commencement of the period for which the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is being calculated and on or prior to the date on which the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made (the “Calculation Date”),
then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, Guarantee, repayment, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other discharge of Indebtedness, or such issuance, repurchase or redemption
of preferred equity or Disqualified Stock, and the use of the proceeds therefrom, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter reference period.

any related financing transactions, that the specified Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has both determined to make and made after the date of this Indenture and during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference

occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter reference period. Any Person that is not a Restricted Subsidiary on the Calculation Date will be deemed not to have been a Restricted Subsidiary at any time during such four-quarter period.

 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any transaction, the pro forma calculations
shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or 

  
 -12-

 
accounting officer of the Issuer. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate
in effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). Interest on a
Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP.
For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable
period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually
chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable determination of the Issuer as set forth in an Officers’
Certificate, to reflect operating expense reductions reasonably expected to result from any acquisition or merger.

 THE
NOTES 
  

	Section 2.01	Form and Dating. 

 (a)
General. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 (in the case of the 2019 Notes) and Exhibit A-2 (in the case of the 2021 Notes) hereto. The Notes may have notations,
legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Note will be dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be denominated in Dollars, and all cash payments due thereon shall be made in Dollars. The Notes shall be
in denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. 
 The terms and provisions contained in the
Notes will constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and agree to be bound
thereby. However, to the extent any provision of any Note conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 

(b) Global Notes. Notes issued in global form will be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 (in the case of the 2019 Notes) or
Exhibit A-2 (in the case of the 2021 Notes) hereto (including the Global Note Legend thereon and the “Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note will represent such of the outstanding Notes
as will be specified therein and each shall provide that it represents the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from
time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the amount of any such increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented
thereby will be made by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.05 hereof. 

(c) Notes in the form of Physical Securities issued in exchange for Notes represented by interests in a Global Note pursuant to
Section 3.08 of the Base Indenture may be issued in the form of permanent certificated Notes in registered form in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A-1 (in the case of the 2019 Notes) and Exhibit A-2 (in the case of the 2021
Notes) and, if applicable, bearing any legends required hereby. 
  

	Section 2.02	Execution and Authentication. 

 At least one Officer must sign the Notes for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 

  
 -34-

 If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time a Note is
authenticated, the Note will nevertheless be valid. 
 A Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of
the Trustee. The signature will be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture. 
 The Trustee
will, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company (an “Authentication Order”), authenticate Notes for original issue that may be validly issued under this Indenture, including any Additional
Notes and any Exchange Notes. 
 The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate
Notes. An authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to
deal with Holders or an Affiliate of the Company. 
  

	Section 2.03	Registrar and Paying Agent. 

 The Issuer initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. 

The Issuer initially appoints the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global
Notes. 
  

	Section 2.04	Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 

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

	Section 2.05	[Reserved.] 

  

	Section 2.06	Transfer and Exchange. 

Certificated notes may not be exchanged for beneficial interests in any Global Note unless the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a
written certificate (as provided in form attached to Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit A-2 hereto) and in accordance with Section 3.07 and 3.08 of the Base Indenture. 

  
 -35-

 No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.11 of the Base Indenture or
Section 9.06 or Article 3 hereof, not involving any transfer. 
  

	Section 2.07	[Reserved.] 

  

	Section 2.08	Deposit of Moneys. 

Prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on each Interest Payment Date and the Stated Maturity for the payment of principal on the
Notes, the Issuer shall have deposited with a Paying Agent (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust in accordance with Section 4.03 of the Base Indenture) money, in funds immediately available on such
date, sufficient to make cash payments, if any, due on such Interest Payment Date and the Stated Maturity for the payment of principal on the Notes in a timely manner which permits the Paying Agent to remit payment to the Holders on such Interest
Payment Date and the Stated Maturity for the payment of principal on the Notes. 
 For purposes of the Notes, the terms “at
or prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on” shall be deemed to replace the words “on or before” in Section 4.03(a) of the Base Indenture and “prior to” in Section 4.03(b) of the Base Indenture. 

 

	Section 2.09	Global Notes. 

 The Notes
shall initially be issued in the form of one of more Global Notes, and the provisions of the Base Indenture (including, but not limited to, Section 3.06 and Section 3.08) relating to Global Securities (as defined in the Base Indenture)
shall apply to the Notes. 
  

	Section 2.10	Defaulted Interest. 

 If
the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record
date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Issuer
will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the
special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date
and the amount of such interest to be paid. 

  
 -36-

	Section 2.11	Additional Notes. 

 The
Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Holders of the Notes of a series, reopen the series of debt securities of which the Notes are a part and issue Additional Notes having the same ranking and the same interest
rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes of such series, except for the public offering price and the issue date and, if applicable, the initial interest accrual date and the initial interest payment date, if it is satisfied that the Additional
Notes will have the same characteristics for U.S. tax purposes as Notes of the same series that are already outstanding. Any Additional Notes of a series having similar terms, together with the previously issued Notes of such series, will constitute
a single series of debt securities under this Indenture, including, without limitation, for purposes of waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes of this Indenture, references to
a series of Notes include any Additional Notes of the same series actually issued. 
 In addition, the Issuer may issue from
time to time other series of Notes under the Base Indenture consisting of debentures, other series of notes or other evidences of indebtedness, but such other securities will be separate from and independent of the Notes. Any issuance of Additional
Notes is subject to all of the covenants in this Indenture, including those contained in Section 4.07.

(1) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal
national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or 
 (2) if the Notes are not listed on any national
securities exchange, on a pro rata basis. 
 In the event of partial redemption or purchase by lot, the particular Notes
to be redeemed or purchased will be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption. 

The Trustee will promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for
partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000; provided that no 2019 Notes and no 2021
Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 

 

	Section 3.03	Notice of Redemption. 

At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a
notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the
Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Articles 7 or 10 hereof. 
 The notice will identify the
Notes (including CUSIP Numbers) to be redeemed and will state: 
 (1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price for the 2019 Notes and/or the 2021 Notes, as applicable; 

(3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after
the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; 

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

  
 -38-

 (5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent
to collect the redemption price; 
 (6) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment,
interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph
of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 

At the Issuer’s request, the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at their expense;

 One Business Day prior to the redemption date, the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be
redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest,
if any, on, all Notes to be redeemed. 
 If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the
redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid
interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption is not so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Issuer to comply
with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the
Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 
  

	Section 3.06	Notes Redeemed in Part.

any Notes are outstanding, the Issuer shall file with the SEC, to the extent such submissions are accepted for filing by the SEC, and shall provide to the Trustee (within 15 days after it files (or would have been required to file) with the SEC):

 (1) all quarterly financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on
Form 10-Q; and 
 (2) all annual reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 10-K;

 in each case, as if the Issuer were required to file such forms. 
 Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information
contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 

All such reports shall be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to
such reports. Each Annual Report on Form 10-K shall include a report on the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements by the Issuer’s independent accountants. 
 If, at any time, the Issuer is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Issuer shall nevertheless continue filing such reports with the SEC within
the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing. 

  
 -43-

 (b) For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, if at any time the Issuer is not required
to file with the SEC the reports required by paragraph (a) of this Section 4.03, the Issuer shall furnish to the Holders and prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4)
under the Securities Act.

stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Issuer they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period. If they do,
the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Issuer also shall comply with Section 314(a)(4) of the TIA. 

(b) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

 

	Section 4.05	Restricted Payments. 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

Issuer’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests, other than Disqualified Stock, of the Issuer and other than dividends or

Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Guarantor that is contractually subordinated to the Notes or to any Note Guarantee (excluding (x) any intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (y) the
purchase, repurchase, or other acquisition of Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to the notes or to any Note Guarantee, as the case may be, purchased in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or
final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of purchase, repurchase or acquisition), except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or 

  
 -44-

 (4) make any Restricted Investment 

(all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted
Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: 
 (A) no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment; 

(B) the Issuer would, after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the

(C) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Issuer and
its Restricted Subsidiaries since the date of this Indenture (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2) through (20) of Section 4.05(b)), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

 (iv) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer designated as such after the date of this
Indenture is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture or has been merged into, consolidated or amalgamated with or into, or transfers or conveys its assets to, the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, 100%
of the Fair Market Value of the Issuer’s Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation, combination or transfer (or of the assets transferred or conveyed, as applicable) after deducting any Indebtedness associated with the
Unrestricted Subsidiary so designated or 

  
 -45-

 
combined or any Indebtedness associated with the assets so transferred or conveyed; plus 
 (v) 100% of any dividends or distributions received by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer after the date of this Indenture from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, to the extent
that such dividends or distributions were not otherwise included in the Consolidated Net Income of the Issuer for such period. 

(b) The provisions of Section 4.05(a) hereof will not prohibit: 

(1) the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any redemption within 60 days after the date of
declaration of the dividend or distribution or giving of the redemption notice, as the case may be, if, at the date of declaration or notice, the dividend, distribution or redemption payment would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture;

 (2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially
concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) of, Equity Interests of the Issuer (other than Disqualified Stock) or from the substantially concurrent contribution of common equity capital to the Issuer; provided that

 (4) any Restricted Payment made by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 

(5) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Issuer or any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer held by any current or former officer, director, consultant or employee of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the requirements of any equity subscription agreement, stock option
agreement, shareholders’ or members’ agreement or similar agreement, plan or arrangement or otherwise in the ordinary course of business; 
 (6) the repurchase of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options to the extent such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price of those stock options;

 (8) Restricted Payments arising as a result of Qualified Receivables
Financing; 
 (9) the declaration and payment of dividends or other distributions to holders of any class or
series of Designated Preferred Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) issued after the date of this Indenture; provided, however, that (A) for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial
statements are available immediately preceding the date of issuance of such Designated Preferred Stock, after giving effect to such issuance (and the payment of dividends or distributions) on a pro forma basis, the Issuer could incur an additional
$1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and (B) the aggregate amount of dividends declared and paid pursuant to this clause (9) does not exceed the net cash proceeds actually received by the Issuer from any such

and 
 (20) the distribution, as a dividend or otherwise, of shares of Capital Stock of, or Indebtedness owed to
the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer by, Unrestricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that at the time of, and after giving effect to, any Restricted Payment permitted under clauses (6) and (9), no Default or Event

 (d) For purposes of determining compliance with the provisions set forth above, in the event that a
Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in the above clauses, the Issuer, in its sole discretion, may order and classify, and from time to time may reorder and reclassify, such Restricted
Payment if it would have been permitted at the time such Restricted Payment was made and at the time of any such reclassification. 
  

	Section 4.06	Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. 

(a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or
become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
 (1)
pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the
Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 
 (2) make loans or advances to the Issuer or any of its

 (6)
customary restrictions contained in any agreement relating to the sale of any asset permitted under Section 4.08 pending the consummation of such sale;

Section 4.06(a), but only to the extent that such restrictions do not materially adversely affect the consolidated cash position of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries. 

 

	Section 4.07	Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Equity. 

 (a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable,
contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Issuer will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any
shares of preferred equity; provided, however, that the Issuer may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt) or issue preferred equity, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional
Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred equity is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 

  
 -49-

 
1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the
preferred equity had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 
 (b) The provisions of
Section 4.07(a) will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
 (1) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness and letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder under Credit Facilities in an aggregate
principal amount at any time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the
greater of (x) $3,600 million or (y) an amount equal to 3.5 times Consolidated Cash Flow of the Issuer for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters of the Issuer for which internal financial statements are available; 

(2) the incurrence by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness to the extent outstanding on the date of
this Indenture, including Indebtedness of Massey Energy Company and its subsidiaries; 
 (3) the incurrence by
the Issuer and the Guarantors (including any future Guarantor) of Indebtedness represented by the notes and the related Note Guarantees to be issued on the date of this Indenture;

Obligations, mortgage financings, industrial revenue bonds, purchase money obligations or other Indebtedness or preferred stock, or synthetic lease obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase
price or cost of design, development, construction, lease, installation or improvement of property (real or personal and including Capital Stock), plant or equipment used or useful in the business of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
(in each case, whether through the direct purchase of such assets or the Equity Interests of any Person owning such assets), in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the greater of (x) $750 million or (y) 7.5%
of Total Tangible Assets; 
 (5) Capital Lease Obligations incurred by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in
respect of any sale leaseback transaction; 
 (6) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) or any Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.07(a) hereof or clauses (2), (3), (5), (6), (11) or (12) of this Section 4.07(b); 

  
 -50-

 (7) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: 
 (A) if the Issuer or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Issuer or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash
of all Obligations then due with respect to the notes, in the case of the Issuer, or the Note Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and 
 (B) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, and
(ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (7); 
 (8) the issuance by any
of the Issuer’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Issuer or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of preferred equity; provided, however, that: 

(A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such preferred equity being held by a
Person other than the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, and 
 (B) any sale or other transfer of
any such preferred equity to a Person that is not either the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer,

in each case, to constitute an issuance of such preferred equity by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (8); 
 (9) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations other than for speculative purposes; 

(10) the guarantee by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Restricted

Notes, then the Guarantee shall be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 
 (11) (x) Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity of Persons that are acquired by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or merged into a Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with the
terms of this Indenture, (y) Indebtedness incurred to finance the acquisition of a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture or a corporation merged into or consolidated with the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary after

  
 -51-

 
the date of this Indenture and (z) Indebtedness assumed or incurred in connection with the acquisition of assets, where such acquisition, merger or consolidation is permitted under the terms
of this Indenture; provided that for any such Indebtedness outstanding under this clause (11) in excess of the greater of (x) $750 million and (y) 7.5% of Total Tangible Assets (as of the end of the Issuer’s most recently
ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are available) on the date such Person is acquired by the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, after giving effect to such acquisition and the incurrence of such Indebtedness either: 

(A) the Issuer would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio test set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.07; or 
 (B) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
would not be less than immediately prior to such acquisition; 
 (12) Indebtedness incurred by a Receivables
Subsidiary in a Qualified Receivables Financing that is not recourse to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer other than a Receivables Subsidiary (except for Standard Securitization Undertakings); 

(13) the incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness or the issuance of
Disqualified Stock or preferred equity in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) or having an aggregate liquidation preference at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (x) $500 million and (y) 5% Total
Tangible Assets (it being understood that any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity incurred pursuant to this clause (13) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this Section 4.07 from and after the
date on which the Issuer could have incurred such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred equity under Section 4.07(a) without reliance upon this clause (13)); 

(14) standby letters of credit or bank guarantees (other than letters of credit issued under Credit Facilities permitted
by clause (1) of this paragraph) securing Indebtedness having an aggregate face amount not in excess of $100 million at any time outstanding; 
 (15) Indebtedness supported by a letter of credit in a principal amount outstanding not in excess of the stated amount of such letter of credit otherwise permitted to be incurred under this Indenture;

 (16) Guarantees of Indebtedness of contractors and suppliers of the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries or of persons who are not Affiliates of the Issuer and with whom the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has an existing business relationship in support of financing or bonding arrangements for such contractors or suppliers or
such other person in connection with such business relationship; provided that the obligations of the Issuer or any of the Subsidiaries pursuant to this clause (16) shall not exceed $50 million at any time outstanding; 

  
 -52-

 (17) Indebtedness relating to the financing of insurance policy premiums;
provided that (x) such insurance is for the benefit of the Issuer or any of its Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiaries and (y) the aggregate principal amount outstanding of Indebtedness permitted by this clause (17) shall not
exceed $100 million at any time outstanding; and 
 (18) all premium (if any), interest (including post-petition
interest), fees, expenses, charges and additional or contingent interest on Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Indenture. 
 The Issuer will not incur, and will not permit any Guarantor to incur, any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the
Issuer or such Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and the applicable Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness shall be
deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Issuer solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a first or junior Lien basis. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.07, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or preferred equity meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (18) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.07(a), the Issuer will be permitted to
classify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity on the date of its incurrence and will only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity in one of the above
clauses, although the Issuer may divide and classify an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity in one or more of the types of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity and may later reclassify all or a portion of
such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred equity, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07. The accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on
any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred equity as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock or preferred equity in
the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock or preferred equity will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock or preferred equity for purposes of this Section 4.07;
provided, in each such case (other than preferred stock that is not Disqualified Stock), that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Fixed Charges of the Issuer as accrued (other than the reclassification of
preferred equity as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.07, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this
Section 4.07 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

  
 -53-

 (2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other
Indebtedness; and 
 (3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the
specified Person, the lesser of: 
 (A) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

 (B) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person. 

 

	Section 4.08	Asset Sales. 

 The Issuer
will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
 (1) the
Issuer (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and 

(2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the
form of cash, Cash Equivalents or Marketable Securities. For purposes of this provision, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash: 
 (A) any liabilities of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed
by the transferee of any such assets and, as a result of which, the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary is released from further liability; 
 (B) any securities, notes, other obligations or assets received by the Issuer or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary into
cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days of the receipt thereof, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion; 
 (C) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale; provided that the aggregate Fair Market Value of such Designated Non-cash
Consideration, taken together with the Fair Market Value at the time of receipt of all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (C) less the amount of Net Proceeds previously realized in cash from prior
Designated Non-cash Consideration is less than the greater of (x) 7.5% of Total Tangible Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration
being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value) and (y) $750 million; and 

  
 -54-

 (D) any Capital Stock or assets of the kind referred to in clause
(2) or (4) of the next paragraph of this Section 4.08. 
 Within 450 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds
from an Asset Sale, the Issuer (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may: 
 (a) apply
such Net Proceeds, at its option: 
 (1) to repay (w) Indebtedness and other Obligations under a Credit
Facility, (x) any Indebtedness that was secured by the assets sold in such Asset Sale, (y) other pari passu Indebtedness (provided that the Issuer shall also equally and ratably reduce Indebtedness under the Notes by making
an offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale, to all Holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the pro rata principal
amount of Notes), or (z) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer; 

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business; 

(3) to make a capital expenditure; or 

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a
Permitted Business; or 
 (b) enter into a binding commitment to apply the Net Proceeds pursuant to clauses
(a) (2), (3) or (4) above, provided that such binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment until the earlier of (x) the date on which such acquisition
or expenditure is consummated, and (y) the 180th day following the expiration of the aforementioned 450-day period. 

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Issuer may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the
Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied
or invested as provided in the second paragraph of this Section 4.08 will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $750 million, within ten (10) Business Days thereof, the
Issuer will make an offer to all holders of Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”) and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect
to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale
Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of purchase and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may
use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not 

  
 -55-

 
otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess
Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 

The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations
thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale
provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

 Not later than the date upon which written notice of an Asset Sale Offer is delivered to the Trustee as provided above, the
Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to (i) the amount of the Excess Proceeds, (ii) the allocation of the Net Proceeds from the Asset Sales pursuant to which such Asset Sale Offer is being made and
(iii) the compliance of such allocation with the provisions of Section 4.08. Upon the expiration of the period for which the Asset Sale Offer remains open (the “Offer Period”), the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee for
cancellation the Notes or portions thereof that have been properly tendered to and are to be accepted by the Issuer. The Trustee (or a Paying Agent, if not the Trustee) shall, on the date of purchase, mail or deliver payment to each tendering Holder
in the amount of the purchase price. In the event that the Excess Proceeds delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee is greater than the purchase price of the Notes tendered, the Trustee shall deliver the excess to the Issuer immediately after the
expiration of the Offer Period for application in accordance with this Section 4.08. 
 Holders electing to have a Note
purchased shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Note duly completed, to the Issuer at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days prior to
the purchase date. Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trustee or the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of
the Holder, the principal amount of the Note which was delivered by the Holder for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased. If at the end of the Offer Period more Notes are tendered pursuant
to an Asset Sale Offer than the Issuer is required to purchase, selection of such Notes for purchase shall be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are
listed, or if such Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with applicable legal requirements); provided that no Notes
of $1,000 or less shall be purchased in part. 
 Notices of an Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed by first class mail, postage
prepaid, at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the purchase date to each Holder of Notes at such Holder’s registered address. If any Note is to be purchased in part only, any notice of purchase that relates to such Note shall state the
portion of the principal amount thereof that is to be purchased. 

  
 -56-

 A new Note in principal amount equal to the unpurchased portion of any Note purchased in
part shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the purchase date, unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the purchase price, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof
purchased. 
  

	Section 4.09	Transactions with Affiliates. 

 (a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase
any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”),
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $20.0 million, unless: 
 (1) the Affiliate Transaction is on
terms that are not materially less favorable to the Issuer or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

 (2) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $100 million, (x) a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate
Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members, if any, of the Board of Directors of the Issuer or (y) an opinion as to the fairness to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a
financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing. 
 (b) The following
items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.09(a) hereof: 
 (1) any employment agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the
ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice and payments pursuant thereto; 
 (2) transactions
(including a merger) between or among the Issuer and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any entity that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction; 

(3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Issuer) that is an Affiliate of the Issuer
solely because the Issuer owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person; 
 (4) payment of fees to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  
 -57-

 (5) any issuance of securities, or other payments, awards or grants in cash,
securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, equity incentive awards, equity incentive plans and the granting and performance of registration rights, approved by or pursuant to authority delegated by the Board of
Directors of the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (6) Restricted Payments and Investments permitted
under this Indenture; 
 (7) loans or advances (or cancellation of loans or advances) to employees or consultants
in the ordinary course of business or consistent with past practice; 
 (8) any transaction effected as part of a
Qualified Receivables Financing; 
 (9) the existence of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any acquisition agreements or members’ or stockholders agreement or partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement or related documents (including any registration
rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the date of this Indenture and any amendment thereto or similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence
of, or the performance by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the date of this Indenture shall only be
permitted by this clause (9) to the extent that the terms of any such existing agreement, together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, or such new agreement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes taken as
a whole than the original agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture, as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 
 (10) transactions with Unrestricted Subsidiaries, customers, clients, suppliers, contractors, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, or lessors or lessees of property, in
each case in the ordinary course of business (including, without limitation, pursuant to joint venture agreements) and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are, in the aggregate (taking into account all the costs and
benefits associated with such transactions), materially no less favorable to the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated
Person as determined in good faith by the Issuer; 
 (11) (x) guarantees of performance by the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries of Unrestricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, except for guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money, and (y) pledges of Equity Interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of
lenders of Unrestricted Subsidiaries; 
 (12) if such Affiliate Transaction is with a Person in its capacity as a
holder of Indebtedness or Capital Stock of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary where such Person is treated no more favorably than the holders of Indebtedness or Capital Stock of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

  
 -58-

 (13) existing Indebtedness and any other obligations or transactions
effected pursuant to agreements in effect on the Issue Date and any amendment, modification or replacement of such agreement (so long as such amendment or replacement is not materially more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes, taken as a
whole); 
 (14) payments to the Equity Investors made for any financial advisory, financing or other investment
banking activities, including without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or divestitures, which payments are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors; 

(15) transactions pursuant to any Permitted Gas Properties Transactions; 

(16) transactions otherwise permitted under this Indenture; and 

(17) any transaction in which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the
trustee an opinion as to the fairness to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing. 

 

	Section 4.10	Liens. 

 The Issuer will
not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of their property or assets, now owned or
hereafter acquired, securing Indebtedness of the Issuer or the Guarantors unless all payments due under this Indenture and the Notes (or a Guarantee in the case of Liens of a Guarantor) are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations
so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien. 
  

	Section 4.11	Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control. 

 (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuer will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or
an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes
repurchased to, but not including, the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days
following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes in accordance with Article 3 of this Indenture the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions
that constitute the Change of Control and stating: 
 (1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant
to this Section 4.11 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment; 

  
 -59-

 (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than
30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”); 
 (3) that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; 

(4) that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender
the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the
third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw
their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the
principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have the Notes purchased; and 
 (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be
equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. 
 The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule
14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change in Control. To the extent that the
provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.11 hereof, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations
under this Section 4.11 by virtue of such compliance. 
 (b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer will, to the
extent lawful: 
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer; 
 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in
respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 

  
 -60-

 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly
accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer. 
 The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred
by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of
$2,000. The Issuer will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.11, the Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third party makes the
Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.11 and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or
(2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. 
  

	Section 4.12	Payments for Consent. 

The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any
consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to
all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 
  

	Section 4.13	Additional Note Guarantees. 

 If the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary after the date of this Indenture, then that newly acquired or created Wholly Owned Domestic
Subsidiary, if such Subsidiary guarantees any Indebtedness of the Issuer (unless such Subsidiary is a Receivables Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary) will become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Trustee within 30 days of the date on which it was acquired or created; provided that any Domestic Subsidiary that constitutes an Immaterial Subsidiary need not become a Guarantor until such time as it
(i) ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary or (ii) guarantees a Credit Facility. 
  

	Section 4.14	Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

 The Board of Directors of the Issuer may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary specified in clause (4) of the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary), the aggregate net book value of all outstanding 

  
 -61-

 
Investments owned by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will
reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.05 hereof or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Issuer. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would
be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of the Issuer may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that
redesignation would not cause a Default. 
 Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Issuer as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (other
than a Subsidiary specified in clause (4) of the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary) will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors giving effect to such designation and
an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.05 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an
Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer as of such date and, if
such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.07, the Issuer will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the Issuer may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will
only be permitted if (1) (x) the Issuer could incur such Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test described in Section 4.07(a), or (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Issuer and its Restricted
Subsidiaries would be greater than such ratio for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such designation, in each case on a pro forma basis taking into account such designation; and (2) no Default or Event of Default
would be in existence following such designation. 
  

	Section 4.15	Changes in Covenants upon a Ratings Event. 

 If on any date following the date of this Indenture, the Issuer certifies in a notice to the Trustee that: (i) a Ratings Event has occurred and (ii) at the time of the giving of such notice, no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, beginning on the day such notice is given, the covenants contained in Sections 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.14 and 5.01(4) hereof shall terminate. 

ARTICLE 5 

SUCCESSORS 
  

	Section 5.01	Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets. 

 The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly: (i) consolidate or merge with or into another Person; or (ii) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the
Issuer’s properties or assets (determined on a consolidated basis for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries) in one or more related transactions to another Person, unless: 

  
 -62-

 (1) either: 

(A) the Issuer is the surviving entity; or 

(B) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

 (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) or the
Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of the Issuer, as the case may be, under the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee; 
 (3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

(4) (a) the Issuer or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer),
or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the
beginning of the applicable four-quarter period be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.07(a) hereof; or 

(b) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the successor entity and its Restricted Subsidiaries would not be less than such
ratio for the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction. 
 In addition, the Issuer will not,
directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of the properties and assets of it and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person. 

This Section 5.01 will not apply to: 
 (1) a merger of the Issuer with an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Issuer in another jurisdiction; or 

(2) any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets
between or among the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  

	Section 5.02	Successor Substituted. 

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all
of the properties or assets of the Issuer in a 

  
 -63-

 
transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Issuer is merged or
to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Issuer” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Issuer), and may exercise every right and power of the Issuer, under this Indenture with the same effect as
if such successor Person had been named as the Issuer herein; provided, however, that the predecessor shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all or
substantially all of the Issuer’s properties or assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof. 
 ARTICLE 6 
 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 

 

	Section 6.01	Events of Default. 

 Each
of the following is an “Event of Default”: 
 (1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of
interest on the Notes; 
 (2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the
principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes; 
 (3) failure by the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to comply with the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof; 
 (4) failure by the Issuer or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days (90 days with respect to Section 4.03) after notice to the Issuer by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to
comply with any of the other agreements in this Indenture; 
 (5) default under any mortgage, indenture or
instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken as a whole would
constitute a Significant Subsidiary (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture (but excluding
Indebtedness owing to the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary), if that default: 
 (A) is caused by a failure to
pay principal on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness following the Stated Maturity of such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”); or 

  
 -64-

 (B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its Stated
Maturity, 
 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other
such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $200 million or more; 
 (6) failure by the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken as a whole would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, to pay final and non-appealable
judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $200.0 million (net of any amounts which are covered by insurance or bonded), which judgments are not paid, waived, satisfied, discharged or stayed for a
period of 60 days; 
 (7) the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or
any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: 
 (A) commences a voluntary case, 
 (B) consents to the entry of an
order for relief against it in an involuntary case, 
 (C) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or
for all or substantially all of its property, or 
 (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors. 
 (8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

 (A) is for relief against the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or
any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 
 (B) appoints a custodian of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant
Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;
or 
 (C) orders the liquidation of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 
 and the
order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; and 

  
 -65-

 (9) except as permitted by this Indenture, any Note Guarantee of any
Significant Subsidiary or group of Restricted Subsidiaries that taken as a whole would constitute a Significant Subsidiary is held in any final and nonappealable judgment or decree to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in
full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Note Guarantee and this Indenture), or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Note Guarantee and such
Default continues for 10 days after receipt of the notice pursuant to Section 6.02. 
  

	Section 6.02	Acceleration. 

 In the
case of an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Issuer, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the
Issuer that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. 
 Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of
all of the Holders, rescind an acceleration and its consequences, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium or that has become due
solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 
 In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause
(5) of Section 6.01, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders of the
Notes, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Issuer delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or Guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged or
(y) the Holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it being
understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Notes as described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events. 

 

	Section 6.03	Other Remedies. 

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

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A
delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall 

  
 -66-

 
not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 

 

	Section 6.04	Waiver of Past Defaults. 

Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of
the Holders of all of the Notes rescind an acceleration or waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on, the
Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase). Upon any such rescission or waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

	Section 6.05	Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be
unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
  

	Section 6.06	Limitation on Suits. 

 A
Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if: 
 (1) such Holder has previously
given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 
 (2) Holders of at least 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
 (3) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 

(4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or
indemnity; and 
 (5) during such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request. 
 A Holder of a Note may not use this
Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 

  
 -67-

	Section 6.07	Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment. 

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

 

	Section 6.08	Collection Suit by Trustee. 

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

	Section 6.09	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property
and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments
to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable and documented compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 of the Base Indenture. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 of the Base Indenture out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any
and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the
Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
  

	Section 6.10	Priorities. 

 If the
Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 

  
 -68-

 First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under
Section 6.07 of the Base Indenture, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

Second: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium and interest, ratably,
without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium and interest, respectively; and 
 Third: to the Issuer or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct in writing. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 
  

	Section 6.11	Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or
omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable and
documented attorneys’ fees and expenses against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee,
a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to Section 6.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 
 ARTICLE 7 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 

 

	Section 7.01	Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

 The Issuer may at any time elect to have either Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article
7. 
  

	Section 7.02	Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

 Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 7.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 7.02, the Issuer and each of the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Section 7.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter,
“Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note
Guarantees), which will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 7.05 hereof 

  
 -69-

 
and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (1) and (2) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such Notes, the Note Guarantees and this
Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder:

 (1) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest
or premium on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 7.04 hereof; 

(2) the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Article 2 hereof and Section 4.02 hereof;

 (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Issuer’s and the
Guarantors’ obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (4) this Article 7. 

Subject to compliance with this Article 7, the Issuer may exercise its option under this Section 7.02 notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 7.03 hereof. 
  

	Section 7.03	Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 7.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 7.03, the Issuer and each of
the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 hereof, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12,
4.13, 4.14 and 4.15 and clauses (3) and (4) of Section 5.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant
Defeasance”), and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants,
but will continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to
the outstanding Notes and Note Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of
any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under
Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 7.01 hereof of the option
applicable to this Section 7.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(3) through 6.01(6) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

  
 -70-

	Section 7.04	Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof: 
 (1) the Issuer must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as
will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium and interest on, the outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof
or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuer must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date; 

(2) in the case of an election under Section 7.02 hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel confirming that: 
 (A) the Issuer has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal
Revenue Service a ruling; or 
 (B) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable
federal income tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the
Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as
would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (3) in the case of an election under
Section 7.03 hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant
Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default
or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing); 
 (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the
Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries is bound; 

  
 -71-

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

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

	Section 7.05	Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

Subject to Section 7.06 hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the
Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 7.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 7.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in
accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and
to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 The Issuer will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 7.04
hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the
request of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 7.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 7.04(1) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

  

	Section 7.06	Repayment to Issuer. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of,
premium or interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from such
trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee
thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer causes to be published once, in The New York Times and

  
 -72-

 
The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such
notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. 
  

	Section 7.07	Reinstatement. 

 If the
Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred
pursuant to Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 7.02 or 7.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the
Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium or interest on, any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 8 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
  

	Section 8.01	Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

 Notwithstanding Section 8.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees without the consent of any Holder
of Note: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 

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

(3) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to the Holders of the Notes and
Note Guarantees by a successor to the Issuer or such Guarantor pursuant to Article 5 or Article 9 hereof, and the corresponding release of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture; 

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not
adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any Holder; 
 (5) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order
to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 

  
 -73-

 (6) to conform the text of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note
Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Prospectus Supplement, to the extent that such provision in that “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this
Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes; 
 (7) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance
with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof; or 
 (8) to allow any Guarantor to
execute a supplemental indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes and to release Guarantors from the Note Guarantee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture, the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture
authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee will not be obligated to enter into such amended or supplemental indenture that
affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
  

	Section 8.02	With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

 Except as provided below in this Section 8.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including, without limitation, Sections 4.08 and 4.11 hereof), the
Notes or the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender
offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on,
the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). 

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by a resolution of its Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any such amended or
supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 6.02 of the Base
Indenture, the Trustee will join with the Issuer and the Guarantors in the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 

  
 -74-

 It is not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 8.02
to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
 Without the consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, no amendment or waiver may make any change to, or extend the time for performance under, the
redemption provisions described under Section 3.08. 
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section 8.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not,
however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class
may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section 8.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
 (1) reduce the
principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the
principal of or extend the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (except as provided above with respect to Sections 4.08 and 4.11 hereof); 

(3) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note; 

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

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 

(6) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or impair the rights of
Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium on, the Notes; 
 (7) waive a
redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Sections 4.08 or 4.11 hereof); 

(8) release any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary from any of its obligations under its Note Guarantee or this
Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 

  
 -75-

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

  

	Section 8.03	Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

 The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.01 and Section 6.02 of the Base Indenture, shall be entitled to receive and conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any amendment or supplement to this Indenture described in this Article 8 is permitted or authorized under and otherwise complies with the applicable provisions of this Indenture. Every amendment
or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in a amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
  

	Section 8.04	Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

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

 

	Section 8.05	Effect of Supplemental Indenture. 

 Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 8, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the
respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such
modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes. 

 

	Section 8.06	Notation on Notes in Respect of Supplemental Indentures. 

 Notes may bear a notation approved by the Trustee as to form (but not as to substance) as to any matter provided for by any amendment, supplement or waiver to this Indenture entered into pursuant to this
Article 8. If the Issuer or the Trustee shall so determine, new Notes of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors of the Issuer, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such
amendment, supplement or waiver to this Indenture may be prepared by the Issuer, authenticated by the Trustee and delivered in exchange for the Notes of such series then outstanding. 

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or
waiver. 

  
 -76-

	Section 8.07	Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

 The Trustee will sign any amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 8 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of
the Trustee. The Issuer may not sign an amended or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors of the Issuer approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be provided with and (subject to Section 8.01
hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 15.06 of the Base Indenture, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental
indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 
 ARTICLE 9 

NOTE GUARANTEES 
  

	Section 9.01	Guarantee. 

 (a) Subject
to this Article 9, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity
and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: 

(1) the principal of, premium and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by
acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in
full, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
 (2) in case of any extension of time of payment
or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly
and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 
 (b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to
enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a
proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice 

  
 -77-

 
and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture to the extent
permitted by law. 
 (c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the
Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged,
will be reinstated in full force and effect. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of
subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and
the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition
preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will
forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the
Holders under the Note Guarantee. 
  

	Section 9.02	Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

 Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or
conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the
Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of
such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor
under this Article 9, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
  

	Section 9.03	Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

 Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.03, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not
such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor, unless: 

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

  
 -78-

 (2) either: 

(a) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture and its Note Guarantee on the terms set forth herein or therein, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee; or 
 (b) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the
applicable provisions of this Indenture. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the
assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this
Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or
all of the Note Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Note Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal
rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding clauses 2(a) and (b) above, nothing contained in this Indenture
or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the
Issuer or another Guarantor. 
  

	Section 9.04	Releases. 

 The Note
Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released: 
 (1) in connection with any sale, disposition or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale,
disposition or transfer does not violate Section 4.08 hereof; 
 (2) in connection with any sale,
disposition or transfer of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Issuer, if the sale, disposition or transfer does
not violate Section 4.08 hereof; 
 (3) if the Issuer designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

  
 -79-

 (4) upon Legal Defeasance in accordance with Article 7 hereof or
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 10 hereof; or 
 (5) upon the release of
such Guarantors’ Guarantee under the Credit Agreement or such other Indebtedness that triggered such Guarantor’s Note Guarantee. 
 Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 9.04 will remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest and premium on the Notes
and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 9. 
 ARTICLE 10 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 
  

	Section 10.01	Satisfaction and Discharge. 

 This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 
 (1) either: 
 (a) all Notes that have been authenticated, except
lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer, have been delivered to the
Trustee for cancellation; or 
 (b) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have
become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds
in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge
the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

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

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

  
 -80-

 In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee
stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section 10.01, the provisions of Sections 10.02 and 7.06 hereof will survive such satisfaction and discharge. In
addition, nothing in this Section 10.01 will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 

 

	Section 10.02	Application of Trust Money. 

 Subject to the provisions of Section 7.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the
provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and
premium) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 10.01 hereof by
reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture
and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof; provided that if the Issuer has made any payment of principal of, premium or interest on, any Notes because of the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 

ARTICLE 11

	Section 11.06	Severability. 

 If any

	Section 11.07	Effect of Headings.

 [Form of Back of Note] 

6% Senior Notes due 2019 
 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
 (1) INTEREST. Alpha Natural Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 6% per annum from
June 1, 2011 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest
Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from June 1, 2011 until the principal hereof is due. The first Interest Payment Date shall be
December 1, 2011. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except
defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before
such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.09 of the Supplemental Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payments in respect of Notes represented by Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall
be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depositary. The Issuer will make all payments in respect of a Physical Security (including principal, premium, if any,
and interest), at the office of each Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the
Notes may also be made in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire
transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or a Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its
discretion). Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 (3) PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Union Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
 (4) INDENTURE. The Issuer
issued the Notes under an indenture dated as of June 1, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Issuer and the Trustee, as supplemented by supplemental indenture No. 1 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), dated
as of June 1, 2011, between 

  
 A-1-4

 
the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”). The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA as amended and in effect from time to time. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The
Notes are subject to all the terms and provisions of the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture,
the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 

(a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 5, the Issuer will not have the option to redeem the
2019 Notes prior to June 1, 2014. On or after June 1, 2014, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the 2019 Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal
amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2019 Notes redeemed to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on June 1 of the years indicated below, subject to
the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date: 
  

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
		
	 2014
	  	 	103.000	% 
	 2015
	  	 	101.500	% 
	 2016 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 Unless the Issuer defaults
in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2019 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to June 1, 2014, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of 2019 Notes issued under the Indenture (including any additional notes issued after the Issue Date) at a redemption price of 106.000% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the
redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that (1) at least 65% in aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and (2) that such redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(c) At any time prior to June 1, 2014, the Issuer may also redeem all or a part of the 2019 Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more
than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2019 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid
interest, to, but not including, the date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of 2019 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. 

  
 A-1-5

 (6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. 

(a) If the Merger does not occur concurrently with the Issue Date or on or prior to September 1, 2011, the Issuer shall redeem the
Notes no later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter at the Mandatory Redemption Price. The Issuer may redeem the Notes prior to such date if it determines in its sole discretion that the Merger will not be consummated on or prior to
September 1, 2011. Until either the Merger occurs or the Notes are redeemed, the Issuer shall keep the proceeds of the offering of the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes (net of a portion of the fees payable to the underwriters) in separate segregated
bank accounts. 
 (b) Except under the circumstances described in Section 6(a) above, the Issuer is not required to make
mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 (7) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of
redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose 2019 Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a
redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the 2019 Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000.

 (8) REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER. 
 (a) If there is a Change of Control, the Issuer will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the
date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth
the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
 (b) If the Issuer or a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer consummates any Asset Sales, within ten Business Days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $750 million, the Issuer will commence an offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other
Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets (an “Asset Sale Offer”)
pursuant to Section 4.08 of the Supplemental Indenture to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal
to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that, any Excess Proceeds remain after the
consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset

obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

 [Form of Back of Note] 

6.25% Senior Notes due 2021 
 Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 
 (1) INTEREST. Alpha Natural Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 6.25% per annum from
June 1, 2011 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest
Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from June 1, 2011 until the principal hereof is due. The first Interest Payment Date shall be
December 1, 2011. The Issuer will pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 (2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except
defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before
such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.09 of the Supplemental Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Payments in respect of Notes represented by Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall
be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depositary. The Issuer will make all payments in respect of a Physical Security (including principal, premium, if any,
and interest), at the office of each Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the
Notes may also be made in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by wire
transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or a Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its
discretion). Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 (3) PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Union Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without
notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
 (4) INDENTURE. The Issuer
issued the Notes under an indenture dated as of June 1, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Issuer and the Trustee, as supplemented by supplemental indenture no. 1 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), dated
as of June 1, 2011, between 

  
 A-2-4

 
the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”). The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA as amended and in effect from time to time. Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The
Notes are subject to all the terms and provisions of the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture,
the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. 
 (5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. 

(a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 5, the Issuer will not have the option to redeem the
2021 Notes prior to June 1, 2016. On or after June 1, 2016, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the 2021 Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal
amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2021 Notes redeemed to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on June 1 of the years indicated below, subject to
the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date: 
  

					
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
		
	 2016
	  	 	103.125	% 
	 2017
	  	 	102.083	% 
	 2018
	  	 	101.042	% 
	 2019 and thereafter
	  	 	100.000	% 

 Unless the Issuer defaults
in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2021 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5, at any time prior to June 1, 2016, the Issuer may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of 2021 Notes issued under the Indenture (including any additional notes issued after the Issue Date) at a redemption price of 106.250% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the
redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that (1) at least 65% in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes issued under the Indenture (excluding Notes held by the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption and (2) that such redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 

(c) At any time prior to June 1, 2016, the Issuer may also redeem all or a part of the 2021 Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more
than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2019 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid
interest, 

  
 A-2-5

 
to, but not including, the date of redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of 2021 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

 (6) MANDATORY REDEMPTION. 
 (a) If the Merger does not occur concurrently with the Issue Date or on or prior to September 1, 2011, the Issuer shall redeem the Notes no later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter at the
Mandatory Redemption Price. The Issuer may redeem the Notes prior to such date if it determines in its sole discretion that the Merger will not be consummated on or prior to September 1, 2011. Until either the Merger occurs or the Notes are
redeemed, the Issuer shall keep the proceeds of the offering of the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes (net of a portion of the fees payable to the underwriters) in separate segregated bank accounts. 

(b) Except under the circumstances described in Section 6(a) above, the Issuer is not required to make mandatory redemption or
sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
 (7) NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at
least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose 2021 Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice
is issued in connection with a defeasance of the 2021 Notes or a satisfaction or discharge of the Indenture. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000. 

(8) REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDER. 
 (a) If there is a Change of Control, the Issuer will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the
date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth
the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. 
 (b) If the Issuer or a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Issuer consummates any Asset Sales, within ten Business Days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $750 million, the Issuer will commence an offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other
Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets (an “Asset Sale Offer”)
pursuant to Section 4.08 of the Supplemental Indenture to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal
to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that, any Excess Proceeds remain after the
consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer may 

  
 A-2-6

 
use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset
Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive
an Asset Sale Offer from the Issuer prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes. 

(9) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess if $2,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except
for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and
the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
 (10) PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as
its owner for all purposes. 
 (11) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the
Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class, and any
existing Default or Event or Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency,
(ii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, (iii) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of the Notes and Note Guarantees in case of a
merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s or such Guarantor’s assets, as applicable, and the corresponding release of the Issuer’s or the Guarantor’s obligations under the Indenture, (iv) to
make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, (v) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order
to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, (vi) to conform the text of the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Prospectus Supplement,
to the extent that such provision in that “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes, (vii) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in
accordance with the limitations set forth in the Indenture or (viii) to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental 

  
 A-2-7

 
indenture to the Indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes and to release Guarantors from the Note Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Subsidiaries of Issuer that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a
continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest or premium or Additional Interest, if any, on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the
Indenture, and the Issuer is required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

(14) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH ISSUER. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from,
and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
 (15) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder of the Issuer or any of the Guarantors, as such, will not have any liability for any
obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Note Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.
