ARTICLE
II
FORM OF RECEIPTS,
DEPOSIT OF PREFERRED STOCK, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY, TRANSFER, SURRENDER AND
REDEMPTION OF RECEIPTS 

SECTION 2.01.
Form and Transferability of
Receipts. Definitive Receipts
shall be engraved or printed or lithographed with steel-engraved borders and
underlying tint and shall be substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit A
annexed to this Deposit Agreement, with appropriate insertions, modifications
and omissions, as hereinafter provided. Pending the preparation of definitive
Receipts, the Depositary, upon the written order of the Company, delivered in
compliance with Section 2.02, shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts which
may be printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise
substantially of the tenor of the definitive Receipts in lieu of which they are
issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as the persons executing such Receipts may determine, as evidenced by
their execution of such Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the Company
and the Depositary will cause definitive Receipts to be prepared without
unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Receipts, the temporary
Receipts shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts upon surrender of the
temporary Receipts at the Corporate Office or such other offices, if any, as the
Depositary may designate, without charge to the holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Receipts, the Depositary shall execute
and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Receipts representing the same
number of Depositary Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt
or Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Company’s expense and without
any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Deposit Agreement, and with
respect to the Preferred Stock deposited, as definitive Receipts. 

Receipts shall be executed
by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized
signatory of the Depositary, provided that if a Registrar (other than the
Depositary) shall have been appointed then such Receipts shall also be
countersigned by manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of such
Registrar. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit
Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been
executed as provided in the preceding sentence. The Depositary shall record on
its books each Receipt executed as provided above and delivered as hereinafter
provided. 

Except as the Depositary
may otherwise determine, Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of
whole Depositary Shares. All Receipts shall be dated the date of their issuance.

Receipts may be endorsed
with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or
changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement as may be
required by the Company or required to comply with any applicable law or
regulation or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or
interdealer quotation system upon which the Preferred Stock, the Depositary
Shares or the Receipts may be listed or quoted or to conform with any usage with
respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which
any particular Receipts are subject, in each case, as directed by the Company.

Title to any Receipt (and
to the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt) that is properly endorsed or
accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement shall
be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable
instrument; provided, however, that until a Receipt shall be transferred on the
books of the Registrar, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary, treat the record holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner
thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to dividends or other
distributions, the exercise of any redemption or voting rights or to any notice
provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes. 

The Receipts may be issued
in the form of one or more Global Registered Receipts, in which case, the
Depositary shall, in accordance with the other provisions of this Deposit
Agreement, execute and deliver one or more Global Registered Receipts evidencing
the Receipts, which (i) shall represent the aggregate number of Depositary
Shares to be represented by such Receipts, (ii) shall be registered in the name
of the Global Receipt Depository therefor or its nominee. 

Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Deposit Agreement to the contrary, unless otherwise provided
in the Global Registered Receipt, a Global Registered Receipt may only be
transferred in whole and only by the applicable Global Receipt Depository for
such Global Registered Receipt to a nominee of such Global Receipt Depository,
or by a nominee of such Global Receipt Depository to such Global Receipt
Depository or another nominee of such Global Receipt Depository, or by such
Global Receipt Depository or any such nominee to a successor Global Receipt
Depository for such Global Registered Receipt selected or approved by the
Company or to a nominee of such successor Global Receipt Depository. Except as
provided below, owners solely of beneficial interests in a Global Registered
Receipt shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Receipts
represented by such Global Registered Receipt. Neither any such beneficial owner
nor any direct or indirect participant of a Global Receipt Depository shall have
any rights under this Deposit Agreement with respect to any Global Registered
Receipt held on their behalf by a Global Receipt Depository and such Global
Receipt Depository may be treated by the Company, the Depositary and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or the Depositary as the
holder of such Global Registered Receipt for all purposes whatsoever. Unless and
until definitive Receipts are delivered to the owners of the beneficial
interests in a Global Registered Receipt, (1) the applicable Global Receipt
Depository will make book-entry transfers among its participants and receive and
transmit all payments and distributions in respect of the Global Registered
Receipts to such participants, in each case, in accordance with its applicable
procedures and arrangements, and (2) whenever any notice, payment or other
communication to the holders of Global Registered Receipts is required under
this Deposit Agreement, the Company and the Depositary shall give all such
notices, payments and communications specified herein to be given to such
holders to the applicable Global Receipt Depository. 

If an Exchange Event has
occurred with respect to any Global Registered Receipt, then, in any such event,
the Depositary shall, upon receipt of a written order from the Company for the
execution and delivery of individual definitive registered Receipts in exchange
for such Global Registered Receipt, shall execute and deliver, individual
definitive registered Receipts, in authorized denominations and of like tenor
and terms in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the
Global Registered Receipt in exchange for such Global Registered Receipt.

Definitive registered
Receipts issued in exchange for a Global Registered Receipt pursuant to this
Section shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations
as the Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt, pursuant to
instructions from its participants, shall instruct the Depositary in writing.
The Depositary shall deliver such Receipts to the persons in whose names such
Receipts are so registered. 

Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Deposit Agreement, should the Company determine that the
Receipts should be issued as a Global Registered Receipt, the parties hereto
shall comply with the terms of each Letter of Representations. 

SECTION 2.02.
Deposit of Preferred Stock;
Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof. Concurrently
with the execution of this Deposit Agreement, the Company is delivering to the
Depositary a certificate or certificates, registered in the name of the
Depositary and evidencing ___ shares of Preferred Stock, properly endorsed or
accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of
transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary, together with
(i) all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in accordance
with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement and (ii) a written letter of
instruction of the Company directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to,
or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated in such order a
Receipt or Receipts for the Depositary Shares representing such deposited
Preferred Stock. The Depositary acknowledges receipt of the deposited Preferred
Stock and related documentation and agrees to hold such deposited Preferred
Stock in an account to be established by the Depositary at the Corporate Office
or at such other office as the Depositary shall determine. The Company hereby
appoints the Depositary as the Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Preferred
Stock deposited hereunder and the Depositary hereby accepts such appointment
and, as such, will reflect changes in the number of shares (including any
fractional shares) of deposited Preferred Stock held by it by notation,
book-entry or other appropriate method. The Depositary also acknowledges that
the Company may deposit additional shares of Preferred Stock from time to time
after the date hereof. 

If required by the
Depositary, Preferred Stock presented for deposit by the Company at any time,
whether or not the register of stockholders of the Company is closed, shall also
be accompanied by an agreement or assignment, or other instrument satisfactory
to the Depositary, that will provide for the prompt transfer to the Depositary
or its nominee of any distribution or right to subscribe for additional
Preferred Stock or to receive other property that any person in whose name the
Preferred Stock is or has been registered may thereafter receive upon or in
respect of such deposited Preferred Stock, or in lieu thereof such agreement of
indemnity or other agreement as shall be satisfactory to the
Depositary.

Upon receipt by the
Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Preferred Stock deposited
hereunder, together with the other documents specified above, and upon
registering such Preferred Stock in the name of the Depositary, the Depositary,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall execute and
deliver to, or upon the order of, the person or persons named in the written
order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this
Section 2.02 a Receipt or Receipts for the number of whole Depositary Shares
representing the Preferred Stock so deposited and registered in such name or
names as may be requested by such person or persons. The Depositary shall
execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Corporate Office, except
that, at the request, risk and expense of any person requesting such delivery,
such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such
person. 

Other than in the case of
splits, combinations or other reclassifications affecting the Preferred Stock,
or in the case of distributions of Preferred Stock, if any, there shall be
deposited hereunder not more than the number of shares constituting the
Preferred Stock as set forth in the Articles of Amendment, as such may be
amended. 

The Company shall deliver
to the Depositary from time to time such quantities of Receipts as the
Depositary may request to enable the Depositary to perform its obligations under
this Deposit Agreement. 

SECTION 2.03.
Optional Redemption of
Preferred Stock for Cash.
Whenever the Company shall elect to redeem shares of deposited Preferred Stock
for cash in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of Amendment, it
shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Depositary) give the
Depositary not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of the date of such
proposed redemption and of the number of such shares of Preferred Stock held by
the Depositary to be redeemed and the applicable redemption price, as set forth
in the Articles of Amendment, including the amount, if any, of accrued and
unpaid dividends thereon to and including the date fixed for redemption. The
Depositary shall mail, first-class postage prepaid, notice of the redemption of
Preferred Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the Depositary
Shares representing the Preferred Stock to be redeemed, not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Preferred Stock
and Depositary Shares (the “redemption date”), to the record holders of the
Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed, at the addresses of
such holders as the same appear on the records of the Depositary; provided that
if the Depositary Shares are held in the form of Global Registered Receipts
through the Global Receipt Depositary, the Company may provide such notice of
redemption in any manner permitted by such Global Receipt Depositary. No failure
to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect
the sufficiency of notice or validity of the proceedings for redemption except
as to a holder to whom notice was defective or not given. A redemption notice
which has been mailed in the manner provided herein shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given on the date mailed whether or not the holder
received the redemption notice. The Company shall provide the Depositary with
such notice, and each such notice shall state: the redemption date; the
redemption price and accrued and unpaid dividends payable on the redemption
date; the number of shares of deposited Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares to
be redeemed; if fewer than all the Depositary Shares held by any holder are to
be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such holder to be so
redeemed; the place or places where Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to
be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price and
accrued and unpaid dividends payable on the redemption date; and that from and
after the redemption date dividends in respect of the Preferred Stock
represented by the Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue. If
fewer than all of the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the
Depositary Shares to be redeemed shall be redeemed pro rata (as nearly as may be
practicable without creating fractional Depositary Shares) or by any other
equitable method determined by the Company. 

In the event that notice of
redemption has been made as described in the immediately preceding paragraph and
the Company shall then have paid or caused to be paid in full to the Depositary
the redemption price (determined pursuant to the Articles of Amendment) of the
Preferred Stock deposited with the Depositary to be redeemed (including any
accrued and unpaid dividends to and including the redemption date), the
Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing such
Preferred Stock so called for redemption by the Company and from and after the
redemption date (unless the Company shall have failed to pay for the shares of
Preferred Stock to be redeemed by it as set forth in the Company’s notice
provided for in the preceding paragraph), all dividends in respect of the shares
of Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accrue, the Depositary
Shares called for redemption shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding and all
rights of the holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except the
right to receive the redemption price plus all accrued and unpaid dividends to
and including the redemption date) shall, to the extent of such Depositary
Shares, cease and terminate. Upon surrender in accordance with said notice of
the Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (properly endorsed or assigned
for transfer, if the Depositary or applicable law shall so require), such
Depositary Shares shall be redeemed at a redemption price of $ per Depositary
Share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends to and including the redemption
date. The foregoing shall be further subject to the terms and conditions of the
Articles of Amendment. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of
this Deposit Agreement and the provisions of the Articles of Amendment, the
provisions of the Articles of Amendment will govern and the Company will
instruct the Depositary accordingly. 

If fewer than all of the
Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for redemption, the
Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Receipt upon its surrender to the
Depositary, together with payment of the redemption price for and all other
amounts payable in respect of the Depositary Shares called for redemption, a new
Receipt evidencing such holder’s Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior
Receipt that are not called for redemption. 

The Company acknowledges
that the bank accounts maintained by the Depositary in connection with the
performance of the services described herein will be in the name of the
Depositary and that the Depositary may receive investment earnings in connection
with the investment at the Depositary’s risk and for its benefit of funds held
in those accounts from time to time. 

SECTION 2.04.
Registration of Transfers of
Receipts. The Company hereby
appoints the Depositary as the Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Receipts and
the Depositary hereby accepts such appointment and, as such, the Depositary
shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any
surrender thereof by the holder in person or by a duly authorized attorney,
agent or representative, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed
instrument of transfer or endorsement and including a guarantee of the signature
thereon by a participant in a signature guarantee medallion program approved by
the Securities Transfer Association (a “Signature Guarantee”), together with
evidence of the payment of any transfer taxes as may be required by applicable
law. Upon such surrender, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts
and deliver the same to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto
evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the
Receipt or Receipts surrendered.

SECTION 2.05.
Combinations and Split-ups of
Receipts. Upon surrender of a
Receipt or Receipts at the Corporate Office or such other office as the
Depositary may designate for the purpose of effecting a split up or combination
of Receipts, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized
denominations requested evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary
Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered. 

SECTION 2.06.
Surrender of Receipts and
Withdrawal of Preferred Stock. Any holder of a Receipt or Receipts may withdraw any or all of the
whole shares of deposited Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares
evidenced by such Receipt or Receipts and all money and other property, if any,
represented by such Depositary Shares by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts
at the Corporate Office or at such other office as the Depositary may designate
for such withdrawals. Fractional shares of Preferred Stock may not be withdrawn
by any holder. After such surrender, without unreasonable delay, the Depositary
shall deliver to such holder, or to the person or persons designated by such
holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of such Preferred
Stock and all such money and other property, if any, represented by the
Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for
withdrawal, but holders of such whole shares of Preferred Stock will not
thereafter be entitled to deposit such Preferred Stock hereunder or to receive
Depositary Shares therefor. If the Receipt or Receipts delivered by the holder
to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of
Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing the
number of whole shares of deposited Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the
Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of
Preferred Stock and such money and other property, if any, to be withdrawn,
deliver to such holder, or (subject to Section 2.04) upon his order, a new
Receipt or Receipts evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares. Delivery
of such Preferred Stock and such money and other property being withdrawn may be
made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other
instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate, which, if required by the
Depositary, shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed
instrument of transfer or endorsement. 

If the deposited Preferred
Stock and the money and other property being withdrawn are to be delivered to a
person or persons other than the record holder of the Receipt or Receipts being
surrendered for withdrawal of Preferred Stock, such holder shall execute and
deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the
Depositary may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such holder
for withdrawal of such whole shares of Preferred Stock be properly endorsed in
blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer or
endorsement in blank with a Signature Guarantee. 

The Depositary shall
deliver the whole shares of deposited Preferred Stock and the money and other
property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts
surrendered for withdrawal at the Corporate Office, except that, at the request,
risk and expense of the holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the
account of the holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as
may be designated by such holder. 

SECTION 2.07.
Limitations on Execution and
Delivery, Transfer, Split-up, Combination. As a condition precedent to the execution and
delivery, transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt,
the Depositary or the Company may require any or all of the following: (i)
payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the
Depositary or the Company shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it)
of any tax or other governmental charge with respect thereto (including any such
tax or charge with respect to the Preferred Stock being withdrawn); (ii) the
production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any
signature (or the authority of any signature), including a Signature Guarantee;
and (iii) compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary or the
Company may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement
and as may be required by any securities exchange upon which the deposited
Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be included for
quotation or listed. 

The transfer of Receipts
may be refused, and the transfer, split-up, combination, surrender, exchange or
redemption of outstanding Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when
the register of stockholders of the Company is closed or (ii) if any such action
is deemed reasonably necessary or advisable by the Depositary or the Company at
any time or from time to time because of any requirement of applicable law or of
any government or governmental body or commission, or under any provision of
this Deposit Agreement.

SECTION 2.08.
Lost Receipts,
etc. In case any Receipt shall be mutilated or
destroyed or lost or stolen, the Depositary in its discretion may execute and
deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such
mutilated Receipt or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or
stolen Receipt, provided that the holder thereof provides the Depositary with
(i) evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction, loss
or theft of such Receipt, of the authenticity thereof and of his ownership
thereof and (ii) reasonable indemnification and the provision of an open penalty
surety bond, in each case, satisfactory to the Depositary and the Company and
holding the Depositary and the Company harmless.

SECTION 2.09.
Cancellation and Destruction of
Surrendered Receipts. All
Receipts surrendered to the Depositary shall be cancelled by the Depositary.
Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Depositary is
authorized to destroy such Receipts so cancelled.

ARTICLE
III
CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF
HOLDERS OF RECEIPTS AND THE COMPANY 

SECTION 3.01.
Filing Proofs, Certificates and
Other Information. Any holder
of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file such proof of residence
or other information and to execute such certificates as the Depositary or the
Company may reasonably deem necessary or proper. The Depositary or the Company
may withhold or delay the delivery of any Receipt, the transfer, redemption or
exchange of any Receipt, the withdrawal of the deposited Preferred Stock
represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by any Receipt, the distribution
of any distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof, until
such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed.

SECTION 3.02.
Payment of Fees and
Expenses. Holders of Receipts
shall be obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain fees and
expenses, as provided in Section 5.08, or provide evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositary that such fees and expenses have been paid. Until
such payment is made, transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of the Preferred
Stock or money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares
evidenced by such Receipt may be refused, any distribution may be withheld, and
any part or all of the Preferred Stock or other property represented by the
Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be sold for the account of the
holder thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such holder a
reasonable number of days prior to such sale). Any distribution so withheld and
the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such fees or
expenses, the holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency.

SECTION 3.03.
Representations and Warranties
as to Preferred Stock. In the
case of the initial deposit of the Preferred Stock hereunder, the Company shall
be deemed thereby to represent and warrant that the Preferred Stock and each
certificate therefor are valid and that such deposit has been duly authorized.
The Company hereby further represents and warrants that such Preferred Stock is
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Such representations and
warranties shall survive the deposit of the Preferred Stock and the issuance of
Receipts. 

SECTION 3.04.
Representation and Warranty as
to Receipts and Depositary Shares. The Company hereby represents and warrants that the Receipts, when
issued, will evidence legal and valid interests in the Depositary Shares and
each Depositary Share will represent a legal and valid fractional interest in a
share of deposited Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Share. Such
representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Preferred Stock and
the issuance of Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares. 

ARTICLE
IV
THE PREFERRED STOCK;
NOTICES 

SECTION 4.01.
Dividends and Other Cash
Distributions. Whenever the
Depositary shall receive any dividend or other cash distributions on the
deposited Preferred Stock, including any cash received upon redemption of any
shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 2.03, the Depositary shall,
subject to Section 3.02, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record
date fixed pursuant to Section 4.04 such amounts of such sum as are, as nearly
as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares
evidenced by the Receipts held by such holders; provided, however, that, in case
the Company or the Depositary shall be required by law to withhold and shall
withhold from any cash distribution in respect of the Preferred Stock an amount
on account of taxes or as otherwise required by law, regulation or court
process, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of
Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly. The Depositary shall distribute
or make available for distribution, as the case may be, only such amount,
however, as can be distributed without attributing to any holder of Receipts a
fraction of one cent, and any balance not so distributable shall be held by the
Depositary (without liability for interest thereon) and shall be added to and be
treated as part of the next sum received by the Depositary for distribution to
record holders of Receipts then outstanding. 

SECTION 4.02.
Distributions Other Than
Cash. Whenever the Depositary
shall receive any distribution other than cash on the deposited Preferred Stock,
the Depositary shall, subject to Section 3.02, distribute to record holders of
Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.04 such amounts of the
securities or other property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in
proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the
Receipts held by such holders, in any manner that the Depositary and the Company
may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in
the opinion of the Depositary after consultation with the Company, such
distribution cannot be made proportionately among such record holders, or if for
any other reason (including any requirement that the Company or the Depositary
withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Depositary deems, after consultation
with the Company, such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, with
the approval of the Company, adopt such method as it deems equitable and
practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale
(at public or private sale) of the securities or other property thus received,
or any part thereof, at such place or places and upon such terms as the
Depositary may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to
Section 3.02, be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may
be, by the Depositary to record holders of Receipts as provided by Section 4.01
in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Depositary shall not be
obligated hereunder to make any distribution of such securities to the holders
of Receipts unless the Company shall have provided to the Depositary, upon
request of the Depositary, an opinion of counsel stating that such securities
have been registered under the Securities Act or do not need to be registered
thereunder in order to be freely transferable. 

SECTION 4.03.
Subscription Rights,
Preferences or Privileges. If
the Company shall at any time offer or cause to be offered with respect to the
deposited Preferred Stock any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for
or to purchase any securities or any rights, preferences or privileges of any
other nature, the offering of such rights, preferences or privileges shall in
each such instance be communicated to the Depositary and thereafter made
available by the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts in such manner as
the Company shall instruct (including by the issue to such record holders of
warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges); provided,
however, that (a) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights,
preferences or privileges the Company determines upon advice of its legal
counsel that it is not lawful or feasible to make such rights, preferences or
privileges available to the holders of Receipts (by the issue of warrants or
otherwise) or (b) if and to the extent instructed by holders of Receipts who do
not desire to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges, the Depositary
shall then, if so instructed by the Company, and if applicable laws or the terms
of such rights, preferences or privileges so permit, sell such rights,
preferences or privileges of such holders at public or private sale, at such
place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of
any such sale shall, subject to Section 3.01 and Section 3.02, be distributed by
the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by
Section 4.01 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Depositary
shall not be obligated hereunder to make any distribution of such rights,
preferences or privileges, unless the Company shall have provided to the
Depositary, upon request of the Depositary, an opinion of counsel stating that
such rights, preferences or privileges have been registered under the Securities
Act or do not need to be registered thereunder in order to be freely
transferable. 

SECTION 4.04.
Notice of Distributions; Fixing
of Record Date for Holders of Receipts. Whenever any dividend or other cash
distributions shall become payable, any distribution other than cash shall be
made, or any rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered,
with respect to the deposited Preferred Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall
receive notice of (i) any meeting at which holders of such Preferred Stock are
entitled to vote or of which holders of such Preferred Stock are entitled to
notice or (ii) any election on the part of the Company to redeem any shares of
such Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record
date (which shall be the same date as the record date, if any, fixed by the
Company with respect to the Preferred Stock) for the determination of the
holders of Receipts (a) who shall be entitled to receive such dividend,
distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale
thereof, (b) who shall be entitled to give instructions for the exercise of
voting rights at any such meeting or to receive notice of such meeting or (c)
whose Depositary Shares are to be so redeemed. 

SECTION 4.05.
Voting
Rights. Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which
the holders of deposited Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the record holders of Receipts
a notice, which shall be provided by the Company and which shall contain (i)
such information as is contained in such notice of meeting, (ii) a statement
that the holders of Receipts at the close of business on a specified record date
fixed pursuant to Section 4.04 will be entitled, subject to any applicable
provision of law, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting
rights pertaining to the amount of Preferred Stock represented by their
respective Depositary Shares and (iii) a brief statement as to the manner in
which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of a holder of a
Receipt on such record date, the Depositary shall vote or cause to be voted the
amount of Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such
Receipt in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request. To the
extent any such instructions request the voting of a fractional interest of a
share of deposited Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall aggregate such interest
with all other fractional interests resulting from requests with the same voting
instructions and shall vote the number of whole votes resulting from such
aggregation in accordance with the instructions received in such requests. The
Company hereby agrees to take all reasonable action that may be reasonably
deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote
such Preferred Stock or cause such Preferred Stock to be voted. In the absence
of specific instructions from the holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will
abstain from voting to the extent of the Preferred Stock represented by the
Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt. The Depositary shall not be
required or allowed to exercise discretion in voting any Preferred Stock
represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt. 

SECTION 4.06.
Changes Affecting Preferred
Stock; Reclassifications, Recapitalizations, etc. Upon any change in par or stated value,
split-up, combination or any other reclassification of Preferred Stock, or upon
any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation
affecting the Company or to which the Company is a party, or upon the sale of
all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, the Depositary shall, upon the
instructions of the Company, (i) make such adjustments in (a) the fraction of an
interest represented by one Depositary Share in one share of Preferred Stock and
(b) the ratio of the redemption price per Depositary Share to the redemption
price of a share of Preferred Stock, in each case as may be required by or as is
consistent with the provisions of the Articles of Amendment to fully reflect the
effects of such change in liquidation preference, split-up, combination or other
reclassification of stock, or of such recapitalization, reorganization, merger,
amalgamation, consolidation, or of such sale and (ii) treat any shares of stock
or other securities or property (including cash) that shall be received by the
Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of the Preferred
Stock as new deposited property under this Deposit Agreement, and Receipts then
outstanding shall thenceforth represent the proportionate interests of holders
thereof in the new deposited property so received in exchange for or upon
conversion of or in respect of such Preferred Stock. In any such case the
Depositary may, in its discretion, with the approval of the Company, execute and
deliver additional Receipts, or may call for the surrender of all outstanding
Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new
deposited property. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, holders of
Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such
change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification
of the Preferred Stock, or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger,
amalgamation or consolidation, or any such sale of substantially all the assets
of the Company to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to
convert, exchange or surrender the Preferred Stock represented thereby only into
or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities and property and cash into which the deposited Preferred Stock
evidenced by such Receipts might have been converted or for which such Preferred
Stock might have been exchanged or surrendered immediately prior to the
effective date of such transaction, subject to any subsequent change in par or
stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification or any subsequent
recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation or sale
of substantially all the assets. The Company shall cause effective provision to
be made in the charter of the resulting or surviving corporation (if other than
the Company) for protection of such rights as may be applicable upon exchange of
the deposited Preferred Stock for securities or property or cash of the
surviving corporation in connection with the transactions set forth above. The
Company shall cause any such surviving corporation (if other than the Company)
expressly to assume the obligations of the Company hereunder. 

SECTION 4.07.
Inspection of
Reports. The Depositary shall
make available for inspection by holders of Receipts at the Corporate Office and
at such other places as the Depositary may from time to time deem advisable
during normal business hours any reports and communications received from the
Company that are both received by the Depositary as the holder of the deposited
Preferred Stock and made generally available to the holders of the Preferred
Stock. In addition, the Depositary shall transmit certain notices and reports to
the holders of Receipts as provided in Section 5.05. 

SECTION 4.08.
Lists of Receipt
Holders. Promptly upon
reasonable request from time to time by the Company, the Depositary shall
furnish to the Company a list, as of a recent date specified by the Company, of
the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all persons in whose
names Receipts are registered on the books of the Depositary. 

SECTION 4.09.
Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Deposit Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Depositary determines
that any distribution in property is subject to any tax which the Depositary is
obligated by applicable law to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a
portion of such property in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary
reasonably deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes, by public or
private sale, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such
sale or the balance of any such property after deduction of such taxes to the
holders of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of Depositary
Shares held by them, respectively; provided, however, that in the event the
Depositary determines that such distribution of property is subject to
withholding tax only with respect to some but not all holders of Receipts, the
Depositary will use its best efforts (i) to sell only that portion of such
property distributable to such holders that is required to generate sufficient
proceeds to pay such withholding tax and (ii) to effect any such sale in such a
manner so as to avoid affecting the rights of any other holders of Receipts to
receive such distribution in property. 

ARTICLE
V
THE DEPOSITARY AND THE
COMPANY 

SECTION 5.01.
Maintenance of Offices,
Agencies and Transfer Books by the Registrar. The Depositary shall maintain at the Corporate
Office facilities for the execution and delivery, transfer, surrender and
exchange, split-up, combination and redemption of Receipts and the withdrawal of
Preferred Stock. 

The Depositary shall keep
books at the Corporate Office for the registration and transfer of Receipts,
which books at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the record
holders of Receipts as provided by applicable law. The Depositary may close such
books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in
connection with the performance of its duties hereunder. The Depositary may
maintain such books in customary electronic form. 

If the Receipts or the
Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Preferred Stock represented by such
Depositary Shares shall be listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or any
other stock exchange, or quoted on any interdealer quotation system, the
Depositary will, at the request and expense of the Company, arrange such
facilities for the delivery, transfer, surrender, redemption and exchange of
such Receipts, such Depositary Shares or such Preferred Stock as maybe required
by applicable law or applicable stock exchange or quotation system
regulations.

SECTION 5.02.
Prevention or Delay in
Performance by the Depositary or the Company. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall
incur any liability to any holder of any Receipt, if by reason of any provision
of any present or future law or regulation thereunder of the United States of
America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary
or the Registrar, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Articles
of Incorporation or the Articles of Amendment or, by reason of any act of God or
war or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the
Depositary, or the Company shall be prevented or forbidden from doing or
performing any act or thing that the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide
shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary, the Registrar or the
Company incur any liability to any holder of a Receipt by reason of any
nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or
thing that the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall or may be done or
performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any
discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement.

SECTION 5.03.
Obligations of the Depositary
and the Company. The
Depositary shall at all times act in good faith and shall use its best efforts
within reasonable time limits to insure the accuracy of all services performed
pursuant to this Deposit Agreement. The Company assumes no obligation and shall
not be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement or any Receipt to
holders of Receipts other than from acts or omissions arising out of conduct
constituting bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of such duties as are specifically set forth in this Deposit
Agreement.

The Company shall not be
under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other
proceeding with respect to the deposited Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or
Receipts that in its reasonable opinion may involve it in expense or liability,
unless indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against all expense and liability
be furnished as often as may be required.

The Company shall not be
liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the advice of
legal counsel or accountants, or information provided by any holder of a Receipt
or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such
advice or information. The Company may rely and shall be protected in acting
upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it in
good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties.

In the event the Depositary
shall receive conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any holders of
Receipts, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, the Depositary
shall be entitled to act on such claims, requests or instructions received from
the Company, and shall be entitled to the full indemnification set forth in
Section 5.06 hereof in connection with any action so taken.

The Depositary shall not be
responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction to vote any of the
deposited Preferred Stock or for the manner or effect of any such vote made, as
long as any such action or non-action is in good faith and does not result from
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Depositary. The Depositary
undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Deposit Agreement against the
Depositary.

The Depositary, its parent,
affiliate, or subsidiaries, may own, buy, sell or deal in any class of
securities of the Company and its affiliates and in Receipts or Depositary
Shares or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company
or its affiliates may be interested or contract with or lend money to or
otherwise act as fully or as freely as if it were not the Depositary hereunder.
If so appointed, the Depositary may also act as transfer agent or registrar of
any of the securities of the Company and its affiliates, or act in any other
capacity for the Company or its affiliates.

It is intended that the
Depositary shall not be deemed to be an “issuer” of the securities under the
federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws, it being expressly
understood and agreed that the Depositary is acting only in a ministerial
capacity as Depositary for the deposited Preferred Stock; provided, however,
that the Depositary agrees to comply with all information reporting and
withholding requirements applicable to it under law or this Deposit Agreement in
its capacity as Depositary.

The Depositary makes no
representation and has no responsibility as to the validity of the registration
statement pursuant to which the Depositary Shares are registered under the
Securities Act, the deposited Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares, the
Receipts (except its countersignature thereon) or any instruments referred to
therein or herein, or as to the correctness of any statement made therein or
herein; provided, however, that the Depositary is responsible for its
representations in this Deposit Agreement.

The Company represents that
it has registered the deposited Preferred Stock and the Depositary Shares for
sale in accordance with applicable securities laws.

SECTION 5.04.
Resignation and Removal of the
Depositary; Appointment of
Successor Depositary. The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary
hereunder by notice of its election to do so delivered to the Company, such
resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and
its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.

The Depositary may at any
time be removed by the Company by notice of such removal delivered to the
Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor
depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter
provided.

In case at any time the
Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Company shall,
within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as
the case may be, appoint a successor depositary, which shall be a bank or trust
company having its principal office in the United States of America and having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If a successor depositary
shall not have been appointed in 60 days, the resigning Depositary may, at the
expense of the Company, petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a
successor depositary. Every successor depositary shall execute and deliver to
its predecessor and to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its
appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor depositary, without any
further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the
Depositary under this Deposit Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of
all sums due it and on the written request of the Company, shall promptly
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights and
powers of such predecessor hereunder, and shall duly assign, transfer and
deliver all rights, title and interest in the deposited Preferred Stock and any
moneys or property held hereunder to such successor and shall deliver to such
successor a list of the record holders of all outstanding Receipts. Any
successor depositary shall promptly mail notice of its appointment to the record
holders of Receipts.

Any corporation or other
legal entity into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or
converted shall be the successor of such Depositary without the execution or
filing of any document or any further act. Such successor depositary may execute
the Receipts either in the name of the predecessor depositary or in the name of
the successor depositary.

SECTION 5.05.
Notices, Reports and
Documents. The Company agrees
that it will deliver to the Depositary, and the Depositary will, promptly after
receipt thereof transmit to the record holders of Receipts, in each case at the
address recorded in the Depositary’s books, copies of all notices and reports
(including financial statements) required by law, by the rules of any national
securities exchange or interdealer quotation system upon which the Preferred
Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed or quoted or by the
Articles of Incorporation and the Articles of Amendment to be furnished by the
Company to holders of the deposited Preferred Stock and, if requested by the
holder of any Receipt, a copy of this Deposit Agreement, the form of Receipt,
the Articles of Amendment and the form of Preferred Stock. Such transmission
will be at the Company’s expense and the Company will provide the Depositary
with such number of copies of such documents as the Depositary may reasonably
request. In addition, the Depositary will transmit to the record holders of
Receipts at the Company’s expense such other documents as may be requested by
the Company.

SECTION 5.06.
Indemnification by the
Company. The Company agrees
to indemnify the Depositary against, and hold it harmless from, any claim,
action, suit, penalty, liability, costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) of any kind and nature whatsoever that may arise out of, or in
connection with, its acting as Depositary under this Deposit Agreement and the
Receipts, except for any liability to the extent arising out of the willful
misconduct, gross negligence, or bad faith on the part of the Depositary. The
obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 5.06 shall survive any
succession of any Depositary or termination of this Deposit
Agreement.

SECTION 5.07.
Damages. The Depositary shall not be liable for any
incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages of any nature whatsoever,
including, but not limited to, loss of anticipated profits (collectively,
“Special Damages”), occasioned by breach of any provision of this Deposit
Agreement by the Depositary even if apprised of the possibility of such damages.
The Company shall not be liable to the Depositary for Special Damages occasioned
by breach of any provision of this Deposit Agreement by the Company even if
apprised of the possibility of such damages.

SECTION 5.08.
Fees, Charges and
Expenses. No charges and
expenses of the Depositary hereunder shall be payable by any person, except as
provided in this Section 5.08. The Company shall pay all transfer and other
taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of this Deposit
Agreement. The Company shall also pay all fees and expenses of the Depositary in
connection with the initial deposit of the Preferred Stock and the initial
issuance of the Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts, any redemption of
the Preferred Stock at the option of the Company and all withdrawals of the
Preferred Stock by holders of Receipts. If a holder of Receipts requests the
Depositary to perform duties not required under this Deposit Agreement, the
Depositary shall notify the holder of the expected cost of the performance of
such duties prior to the performance thereof. Upon approval of such cost by such
holder, such holder will thereafter be liable for the charges and expenses
related to such performance. All other fees and expenses of the Depositary
hereunder (including, in each case, fees and expenses of counsel) incident to
the performance of its obligations hereunder will be promptly paid by the
Company. The Depositary shall present its statement for fees and expenses to the
Company every month or at such other intervals as the Company and the Depositary
may agree.

SECTION 5.09.
Additional Depositary Rights
and Duties. The Depositary
shall:

	      	(a)	      	have no duties or
      obligations other than those specifically set forth herein. Depositary
      shall not be liable for any improper payment made in accordance with the
      information provided by the Company;
		 
		(b)		not be obligated to
      take any legal action hereunder that might, in its judgment, involve any
      expense or liability, unless it has been furnished with reasonable
      indemnity by the Company;
		 
		(c)		be able to rely on
      and shall be protected in acting on the written or oral instructions with
      respect to any matter relating to its actions as Depositary specifically
      covered by this Deposit Agreement, of any officer of the Company
      authorized to give instructions;
		 
		(d)		be able to rely on
      and shall be protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument,
      opinion, notice, letter, telegram or any other document or security
      delivered to it and believed by it reasonably and in good faith to be
      genuine and to have been signed by the proper party or
  parties;
		 
		(e)		not be responsible
      for or liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or
      rights of any person executing or delivering or purporting to execute or
      deliver any document or property under this Deposit Agreement, and shall
      have no responsibility with respect to the use or application of any
      property delivered by it pursuant to the provisions hereof;
		 
		(f)		be able to consult
      with counsel satisfactory to it (including counsel for the Company) and
      the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete
      authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or
      omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with advice or
      opinion of such counsel;
		 
		(g)		not be liable for
      anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this
      Deposit Agreement except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct
      or bad faith;

	       	(h)	       	not be bound by any
      notice or demand, or any waiver or modification of this Deposit Agreement
      or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the
      Depositary signed by the proper authority or authorities;
		 
		(i)		have no duty to
      enforce any obligation of any person to make delivery, or to direct or
      cause any delivery to be made, or to enforce any obligation of any person
      to perform any other act; and
		 
		(j)		have the right to
      assume, in the absence of written notice to the contrary from the proper
      person or persons, that a fact or an event by reason of which an action
      would or might be taken by the Depositary does not exist or has not
      occurred without incurring liability for any action taken or omitted, or
      any action suffered by the Depositary to be taken or omitted, in good
      faith or in the exercise of the Depositary’s best judgment, in reliance
      upon such assumption.

than any change in the fees of the Depositary that are payable by the Company)
which (i) shall materially and adversely alter any substantial existing right of
the holders of Receipts or (ii) would be materially and adversely inconsistent

a holding company for the Company) immediately prior to such transaction (or other securities into which such securities are converted
as part of a merger or consolidation transaction) own, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the voting power of the Voting
Stock of the Company or such surviving Person or, in the case of a holding company for the Company or such surviving Person, such
holding company immediately after such transaction or (b) immediately following the consummation of such transaction, no Person,
other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this clause, beneficially owns, directly or indirectly through one
or more intermediaries, a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Company or such surviving Person
or, in the case of a holding company for the Company or such surviving Person, such holding company.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction
will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (a) the Company becomes a direct Subsidiary of a holding company, (b) such
holding company owns no assets other than the Capital Stock of the Company and (c) upon completion of such transaction, the ultimate
beneficial ownership of the Company has not been modified by such transaction.

“Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio” means, with respect to any Person, the ratio of the aggregate amount of EBITDA of such Person for the four full
fiscal quarters, treated as one period, for which financial information in respect thereof is available immediately preceding the

quarter period being referred to herein as the “Four Quarter Period”) to the aggregate amount of Consolidated
Fixed Charges of such Person for the Four Quarter Period.

    	3

    	

    

The Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
shall be calculated on a pro forma basis giving effect to:

 

(a) the incurrence of Indebtedness
requiring calculation of the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and (if applicable) the application of the net proceeds therefrom,
including to Refinance other Indebtedness, as if such Indebtedness were incurred at the beginning of the Four Quarter Period (except
that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the
average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the Four Quarter Period during the period from the date of creation of such facility
to the date of such calculation or if such facility was created after the end of the Four Quarter Period, based upon the average
daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such calculation
or such shorter period);

 

(b) the incurrence, repayment, defeasance,
retirement or discharge of any other Indebtedness by the Company and its Subsidiaries since the first day of the Four Quarter Period
as if such Indebtedness was incurred, repaid, defeased, retired or discharged at the beginning of the Four Quarter Period (except
that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the
average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the Four Quarter Period or such shorter for which such facility was outstanding
(or, if such facility was created after the end of the Four Quarter Period, based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness
during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such calculation or such shorter period)); and

 

(c) any asset sale or asset acquisition
occurring since the first day of the Four Quarter Period (including to the date of calculation) as if such acquisition or disposition
occurred at the beginning of such Four Quarter Period.

 

For purposes of this definition, whenever
pro forma effect is to be given to any investment, acquisition, disposition or other transaction, or the amount of income or earnings
relating thereto and the amount of Consolidated Interest Expense associated with any Indebtedness incurred or repaid, repurchased,
redeemed, defeased or otherwise acquired, retired or discharged in connection therewith, the pro forma calculations in respect
thereof (including without limitation in respect of anticipated cost savings or synergies relating to any such investment, acquisition,
disposition or other transaction that have been or are expected to be realized) shall be as determined in good faith by the chief
financial officer or an authorized officer of the Company. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given
pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination
had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any interest rate hedging agreement permitted by this Indenture
applicable to such Indebtedness). If any interest bears, at the option of the Company or a Subsidiary, a rate of interest based
on a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate or other fixed or floating rate, and such Indebtedness is being
given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated by applying such optional rate as the Company
or such Subsidiary may designate. Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate determined
in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized
Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP, subject to the definition of Capitalized Lease Obligation hereunder.

 

If such Person or any of its Subsidiaries
directly or indirectly guarantees Indebtedness of a third Person, the above clause shall give effect to the incurrence of such
guaranteed Indebtedness as if such Person or such Subsidiary had directly incurred or otherwise assumed such guaranteed Indebtedness.

 

“Consolidated Fixed Charges”
means, with respect to any Person for any period, the sum of, without duplication, the amounts for such period of:

 

(i) Consolidated Interest Expense;
and

    	4

    	

    

(ii) the aggregate amount of dividends
and other distributions paid in cash during such period in respect of Disqualified Stock of such Person and its Subsidiaries on
a consolidated basis.

 

“Consolidated Interest Expense”
means for any period, total interest expense, net of any interest income, of such Person (including that attributable to Capitalized
Lease Obligations) of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such period with respect to all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company
and its Subsidiaries (including all commissions, discounts and other fees and charges owed with respect to letters of credit and
bankers’ acceptance financing and net payments made (less net payments, if any, received) under swap agreements in respect
of interest rates to the extent such net payments are allocable to such period in accordance with GAAP) minus, to the extent
included in interest expense, any payments required in connection with the termination of any swap agreement and all premiums paid,
gains/losses incurred, charges and fees paid, in each case by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the redemption,

THE NOTES

 

SECTION 2.01. Form
and Dating.

 

Provisions relating to the Notes are set
forth in Appendix A hereto (the “Appendix”), which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this
Indenture. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A
hereto. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange role or usage. Each Note shall be
dated the date of its authentication. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. Subject to Sections 4.06 and 10.02 hereof, the Notes may bear notations of Guarantees.

    	18

    	

    

The terms and provisions contained in the
Appendix and the Notes shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and the Company and the Trustee,
by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. However,
to the extent any provision of any Note or any notation of Guarantees thereon conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture,
the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

 

Notes issued in global form shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (including the Global Notes Legend). Notes issued in definitive form shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (but without the Global Notes Legend and without the “Schedule of Exchanges
of Interests in the Global Note” attached thereto). Each Global Note shall represent such aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Notes as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent 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 increase or decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby
shall be made by the Trustee, the Depositary or the Note Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, in accordance with written
instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.06 hereof.

 

SECTION 2.02. Execution
and Authentication.

 

One Officer shall sign the Notes for the
Company by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer of the Company whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office
at the time a Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid. A Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the
manual signature of the Trustee. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.

 

The aggregate principal amount of Notes that
may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited. The Trustee shall authenticate (i) the Initial Notes for
original issue on the Issue Date in the aggregate principal amount of $800,000,000 and (ii) the Additional Notes for original issue
from time to time after the Issue Date in such principal amounts as may be set forth in a written order of the Company described
in this sentence; provided that the issuance of such Additional Notes shall be subject to Section 2.13 hereof, upon
a written order of the Company signed by one Officer, which written order shall specify (a) the amount of Notes to be authenticated
and the date of original issue thereof, (b) whether the Notes are Initial Notes or Additional Notes and (c) the amount of Notes
to be issued in global form or definitive form.

 

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 Company shall maintain an office or agency
within the City and State of New York where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”)
and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep
a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional
paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any
additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall promptly
notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint
or maintain another entity as Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries
may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

    	19

    	

    

The Company initially appoints The Depository
Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global Notes. The Trustee has been appointed
by DTC to act as Note Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

 

The Company initially appoints the Trustee
to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent. In acting hereunder and in connection with the Global Notes, the Paying Agent and Registrar
shall act solely as agents of the Company, and will not thereby assume any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust
for or with any Holder.

 

SECTION 2.04. Paying
Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

 

The Company shall require each Paying Agent
other than the Trustee to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee
all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, or premium or interest on the Notes, and shall notify the Trustee
of any default by the Company 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 Company 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 Company or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability
for the money. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company (including any Subsidiary) acts as Paying Agent, it shall 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 Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes.

 

SECTION 2.05. Holder
Lists.

 

The Trustee shall preserve in as current
a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders. If the Trustee
is not the Registrar, the Company shall provide to a Responsible Officer at least five Business Days before each interest payment
date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may
reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes.

 

SECTION 2.06. Transfer
and Exchange.

 

The Notes shall be issued in registered form
and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with the Appendix. When
a Note is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the
transfer as requested if the requirements of this Indenture and Section 8-401(a)(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code are met. When
Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of
other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit registration
of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute upon the written request of the Company signed by one Officer of the Company,
and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s or co-registrar’s request. The Company may require payment
of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant
to this Section 2.06. The Company shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges
of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed)
or any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date.

 

Prior to the due presentation for registration
of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar may deem
and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment
of principal of and (subject to Article II of the Notes) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, any Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

    	20

    	

    

Any Holder of a Global Note shall, by acceptance
of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interest in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry
system maintained by (a) the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any Holder of a beneficial interest in
such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

 

All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture
as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

 

SECTION 2.07. Replacement
Notes.

 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the
Trustee or the Company, or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the
Company shall issue and the Trustee, upon the written order of the Company signed by one Officer of the Company, shall authenticate
a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Company, an indemnity bond must
be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company, the Trustee
and any Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may charge for their
respective expenses in replacing a Note. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note, a bona fide purchaser of the original
Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment or registration such original Note, the Trustee shall
be entitled to recover such replacement Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, except a
bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss,
damage, cost or expense incurred by the Company, the Trustee and any Agent in connection therewith.

 

Subject to the provisions of the final sentence
of the preceding paragraph of this Section 2.07, every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and shall
be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

 

SECTION 2.08. Outstanding
Notes.

 

The Notes outstanding at any time are all
the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those reductions
in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this
Section 2.08 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.09 hereof, a Note does not cease to be outstanding
because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note.

 

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section
2.07 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held
by a bona fide purchaser.

 

If the principal amount of any Note is considered
paid under Section 4.01 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

 

If the Paying Agent (other than the Company,
a Subsidiary of the Company or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, on a redemption date or maturity date, money sufficient to pay
Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease
to accrue interest.

 

SECTION 2.09. Treasury
Notes.

 

In determining whether the Holders of the
required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Person
directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, shall be considered
as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall

    	21

    	

    

be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent,
only Notes that a Responsible Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Notes
that the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company offers to purchase or acquires pursuant to an offer,
exchange offer, tender offer or otherwise shall not be deemed to be owned by the Company, such Subsidiary or such Affiliate until
legal title to such Notes passes to the Company, such Subsidiary or such Affiliate, as the case may be.

 

SECTION 2.10. Temporary
Notes.

 

Until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery,
the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes upon a written order of the Company signed by one Officer
of the Company. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company
considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the
Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

 

Holders of temporary Notes shall be entitled
to all of the benefits of this Indenture.

 

SECTION 2.11. Cancellation.

 

The Company at any time may deliver Notes
to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for
registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration
of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and shall return such canceled Notes to the Company. The Company may
not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

SECTION 2.12. Defaulted
Interest.

 

If the Company defaults in a payment of interest
on the Notes, it shall 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 accordance with Section 4.01 hereof. The Company shall promptly 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 Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each
such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date shall 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 Company (or, upon the
written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall 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.

 

SECTION 2.13. Additional
Notes.

 

The Company shall be entitled to issue Additional
Notes under this Indenture which shall have identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect
to the date of issuance and issue price and first payment of interest. With respect to any Additional Notes, the Company shall
set forth in a resolution of the Board of Directors and an Officer’s Certificate, a copy of each which shall be delivered
to the Trustee, the following information: (a) the aggregate principal amount at maturity of such Additional Notes to be authenticated
and delivered pursuant to this Indenture and (b) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number and corresponding ISIN of
such Additional Notes.

 

SECTION 2.14. One
Class of Notes.

 

The Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date
and any Additional Notes in respect thereof shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.

    	22

    	

    

SECTION
2.15. CUSIP Numbers.

 

The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP”
numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption or repurchase,
as the case may be, as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made
as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or repurchase,
as the case may be, and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such
redemption or repurchase, as the case may be, shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall
promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. Any Additional Notes will not be issued with the
same CUSIP, if any, as the existing Notes unless such Additional Notes are fungible with the existing Notes for U.S. federal income
tax purposes.

SECTION
3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.

 

If less than all of the Notes are to be repurchased
or redeemed at any time, selection of such Notes for repurchase or redemption shall be made by the Trustee (1) in compliance with
the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which such Notes are listed, (2) on a pro rata basis
to the extent practicable and in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary, (3) by lot or in such other similar method in
accordance with the procedures of the Depositary or (4) by such other method as the Trustee shall deem to be fair and appropriate;
provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be repurchased or redeemed in part. In the event of partial redemption by
lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, unless otherwise provided herein, not less than 10 days, but except

is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of
the Global Note shall be in an authorized denomination.

required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such reports, and (ii) all current
reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports.

applicable to such reports (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts
and prospective investors upon request.

 

(c)If, at
any time, the Company is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Company
shall nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in clauses (a)(i) and (a)(ii) with the SEC within the time periods specified
above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing; provided that, for so long as the Company is not subject to the periodic
reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the time period for filing reports on Form 8-K shall be

that would apply if the Company were required to file those reports with the SEC, subject to the above proviso.

covenants under this Indenture or the Notes (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).
The Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports referred to in this Section 4.03 to the Trustee and the Holders

one or a combination of the clauses of subsections (a) or (b) of this Section 4.04; provided that (i) Indebtedness

as provided in the following paragraph with respect to Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the amount of any Indebtedness
outstanding as of any date will be:

 

(i)the

    	31

principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

 

(iii)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.

 

(e)For purposes
of determining compliance with any dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency,
the dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant
currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed,
in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that (x) the dollar-equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness
outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date, (y)
if such Indebtedness is incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency (or in a different currency
from such Indebtedness so being incurred), and such Refinancing would cause the applicable dollar-denominated restriction to be
exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such Refinancing, such dollar-denominated
restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness, calculated
as described in the following sentence, does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount (whichever is higher)
of such Indebtedness being Refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs
and expenses incurred in connection with such Refinancing and (z) the dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated
in a foreign currency and incurred pursuant to a Debt Facility shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate
in effect on, at the Company’s option, (i) the Issue Date, (ii) any date on which any of the respective commitments under
such Debt Facility shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise
calculated for any purpose thereunder or (iii) the date of such incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to
Refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated based
on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect
on the date of such Refinancing. The Trustee shall not be responsible for making any such calculations.

 

(f)This Indenture
will not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2)
senior Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a senior priority with respect
to the same collateral.

 

SECTION
4.05. Limitation on Liens.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any Indebtedness secured by a Lien (the “Initial Lien”)
(other than a Permitted Lien) upon any assets of the Company or such Subsidiary, whether owned on the Issue Date or thereafter
acquired, without effectively providing concurrently that the Notes and the related Guarantees then outstanding under this Indenture
are secured equally and ratably with or, at the option of the Company, prior to such Indebtedness so long as such Indebtedness
shall be so secured; provided that if the Indebtedness so secured is subordinated by its terms to the Notes or such Guarantee,
the Lien securing such Indebtedness will also be so subordinated by its terms to the Notes and such Guarantee to the same extent.
Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to the preceding sentence shall provide by its terms that
such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the Initial Lien.

SECTION
4.06. Future Guarantors.

 

On the Issue Date, each of the Company’s
Domestic Subsidiaries that is a guarantor or obligor under the Credit Agreements will fully and unconditionally guarantee the Notes
on a senior unsecured basis. After the Issue Date, the Company will cause each Domestic Subsidiary of the Company that guarantees
(i) any Debt Facility of the Company or any Guarantor with an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million or more or (ii) any
Material Capital Markets Debt issued by the Company or any Guarantor to, within 60 days of the incurrence of such guarantee, execute
and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture to this Indenture pursuant to which such Domestic Subsidiary of the Company
will guarantee payment of the Notes on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in this Indenture; provided that
such guarantee may be subject to limitations or other terms that are substantially similar to those applicable to the guarantee
giving rise to the obligation to provide a Guarantee of the Notes. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Guarantee by a Subsidiary
that was incurred pursuant to this Section 4.06 will be released in the circumstances described in Section 10.03
hereof.

 

SECTION
4.07. Use of Proceeds Prior to the Consummation of the Merger.

 

Prior to the earlier of (A) the date of the consummation
of the Merger and (B) the date on which the Notes are redeemed by the Company pursuant to the special mandatory redemption provisions
described above under Section 3.08 hereof, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, use the
net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes for any purpose other than making investments in Cash Equivalents or consummating the
Merger.

 

Upon the consummation of the Merger, this covenant
will automatically cease to be of any force or effect.

 

SECTION
4.08. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

 

(a)Within
30 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require that the Company
make an offer to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount
thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change
of Control Payment”). If the Change of Control purchase date is on or after an interest record date and on or before
the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest to the Change of Control purchase date will be paid on the Change
of Control purchase date to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date. 

 

Within 30 days following the occurrence of a
Change of Control, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem all the Notes as described in Section 3.07 hereof,
the Company shall mail or deliver by electronic transmission in accordance with applicable procedures of the DTC a notice to each
Holder of Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”) with a copy to the Trustee stating: (i) that a Change of Control
has occurred and that such Holder of Notes has the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase
price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
to but excluding the date of purchase; (ii) the circumstances that constitute or may constitute such Change of Control; (iii) the
purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 20 Business Days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent (“Change
of Control Payment Date”); and (iv) the instructions, as determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 4.08,
that a Holder of Notes must follow in order to have its Notes purchased.

 

(b)On the
Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds an amount
equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the
Change of Control Offer. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or, if all the Notes are then in global form, it shall make such
payment through the facilities of the Depositary) and the Trustee shall 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 by the Holder;
provided that

    	33

    	

    

each such new Note shall be in a principal amount
of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of
Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

 

(c)The Company
shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder
to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control.
To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.08,
the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations
under this Section 4.08 by virtue of its compliance with such securities laws or regulations.

 

(d)The Company
shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of
Control Offer with respect to the Notes in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth
in this Section 4.08 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly tendered
and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) if the Company has defeased the Notes as provided under Section 8.03
hereof or has exercised its option to redeem all the Notes pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.07 hereof. A Change of
Control Offer may be made with respect to the Notes in advance of a Change of Control, and conditional upon the occurrence of such
Change of Control, if a definitive agreement for the Change of Control is in place at the time of making of the Change of Control
Offer.

 

(e)If Holders
of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of
Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company as described in Section
4.08(d) hereof, purchases of all the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party
shall have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such
purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such initial purchase at
a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof on the date of purchase plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
to but excluding the date specified in such subsequent notice as the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of Notes
of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

 

SECTION
4.09. Suspension of Covenant.

 

Following the first day (such date, a “Suspension
Date”):

 

(a)the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating
from both of the Rating Agencies; and

 

(b)no Default has occurred and is continuing
under this Indenture,

 

the Company and its Subsidiaries will not be
subject to the provisions of the covenant described under Section 4.04 hereof (the “Suspended Covenant”).
If at any time a Rating Agency downgrades the rating assigned to the Notes to below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Suspended
Covenant will thereafter be reinstated as if such covenant had never been suspended (the “Reinstatement Date”) and
be applicable pursuant to the terms of this Indenture (including in connection with performing any calculation or assessment to
determine compliance with the terms of this Indenture), unless and until the Notes subsequently attain an Investment Grade Rating
from both of the Rating Agencies and no Default has occurred and is continuing (in which event the Suspended Covenant shall no
longer be in effect for such time that the Notes maintain an Investment Grade Rating from both of the Rating Agencies). Notwithstanding
that the Suspended Covenant may be reinstated, no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under
this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenant based on, and none of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period (as defined below),
regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the Suspended Covenant remained in effect

    	34

    	

    

during such period. The period of time between
the Suspension Date and the Reinstatement Date is referred to as the “Suspension Period.”

 

On the Reinstatement Date, all Indebtedness incurred
during the Suspension Period will be classified to have been incurred pursuant clause (vii) of subsection (b) of the Suspended
Covenant. During the Suspension Period, any reference in “Permitted Liens” to any provision of the Suspended Covenant
will be construed as if such covenant had remained in effect since the Issue Date during the Suspension Period.

 

Promptly following the occurrence of any Suspension
Date or Reinstatement Date, the Company will provide an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee regarding such occurrence. The
Trustee shall have no obligation to independently determine or verify if a Suspension Date or Reinstatement Date has occurred or
notify the Holders of the Notes of any Suspension Date or Reinstatement Date. The Trustee may provide a copy of such Officer’s
Certificate to any Holder of the Notes upon request.

 

SECTION
4.10. Compliance Certificate.

 

(a)The Company shall deliver to the Trustee,
within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officer’s Certificate stating whether the officers signing such certificate
know of any Default that occurred during such fiscal year.

 

(b)The Company shall, so long as any of the
Notes are outstanding, deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days of any executive Officer having knowledge thereof, written notice
of any event that is continuing which constitutes a Default, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take
in respect thereof.

 

SECTION
4.11. Taxes.

 

The Company shall pay, and shall cause each of
its Subsidiaries to pay all material taxes, charges, assessments and governmental levies that are due and payable except (a) such
as are contested in good faith and by appropriate negotiations or proceedings or (b) where the failure to make such payment would
not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the
Notes.

 

SECTION
4.12. Corporate Existence. 

 

Subject
to (or as would not be restricted by) Article V hereof, the Company shall
take all reasonable action to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate existence of
the Guarantors in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as may be amended from time to time) and the rights
(charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and the Guarantors, except, in each case, to the extent that failure
to comply therewith would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company and the Guarantors,
taken as a whole, to perform their obligations under the Notes; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors shall
not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise if the Company determines in good faith that the preservation
thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and the Guarantors, taken as a whole.

corporation, then such successor or transferee shall include a corporate co-issuer) organized and existing under the laws of the
United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and expressly assumes by a supplemental indenture executed and delivered

the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company or successor entity, as applicable, subject to customary exceptions.

Person organized and existing under the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Guarantor was organized or under the laws of
the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (except if the Company determines in good faith that such requirement
is not in the best interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries or that complying with such requirement would not be advisable
for tax planning purposes or to improve tax efficiencies), and expressly assumes, by a supplemental indenture executed and delivered
to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not apply in the case of a Guarantor (x) that has been, or will be as a result of the
subject transaction, disposed of in its entirety to another Person (other than to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company),
whether through a merger or consolidation or (y) that, as a result of the disposition of all or a portion of its Capital Stock,
ceases to be a Subsidiary; and

 

(ii)the Company has delivered to the Trustee

transfer, lease or disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the
Company or a Guarantor under the Notes and this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Company
or a Guarantor in the Notes and this Indenture and, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the assets, the
Company or such Guarantor shall be released and discharged from its obligations thereunder.

 

In case of such consolidation, merger, sale,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made
in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

SECTION
6.01. Events of Default.

 

Each of the following is an “Event of
Default”:

 

(a)a default

by the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, to comply with any of its obligations in the covenants described above under
Section 4.04, Section 4.05, Section 4.06 or Section 4.08 hereof (other than a failure to purchase Notes)
and such failure continues for 45 days after written notice is given to the Company as provided below;

 

(e)the failure
by the Company to comply with any of its obligations in the covenant described above under Section 4.03 hereof and such
failure continues for 120 days after written notice is given to the Company as provided below;

 

(f)the failure
by the Company or any Guarantor to comply with its other agreements contained in this Indenture and such failure continues for
60 days after written notice is given to the Company as provided below;

 

(g)Indebtedness
of the Company, any Significant Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or any group of Guarantors that, taken together (as of the date
of the latest audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries) would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
is not paid within any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders thereof because of a default
and the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $75.0 million;

 

(h)(i) a
court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under the Bankruptcy Code that (1) is for relief against the Company
or any of the Guarantors that are Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Guarantors, that, when taken together, would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case; (2) appoints a custodian of the Company or any of the Guarantors that are Significant
Subsidiaries or any group of Guarantors that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, or for all or substantially
all of the property of the Company or any of the Guarantors that are Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Guarantors that,
when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or (3) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of the Guarantors
that are Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Guarantors that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary,
and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or (ii) the Company or any of the Guarantors
that are Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Guarantors that, when taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary
pursuant to or within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code (1) commences a voluntary case;

of it or for all or substantially all of its property; (4) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (5)
generally is not paying its debts as they become due;

 

(i)any final
judgment or decree for the payment of money (other than judgments which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by
solvent carriers) in excess of $75.0 million is entered

    	37

    	

    

by a court of competent jurisdiction against
the Company, any Significant Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or any group of Guarantors that, taken together would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary, remains outstanding for a period of 90 consecutive days following such judgment becoming final and is not
discharged, waived or stayed within 30 days after written notice is given to the Company as provided below (unless payments in
respect of such judgment are made when due); or

 

(j)a Guarantee
by a Significant Subsidiary ceases to be in full force and effect (other than in accordance with the terms of such Guarantee) or
a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary denies or disaffirms its obligations under its Guarantee (other than by reason of
the termination of this Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture).

 

However, a default under clauses (c), (d), (e),
(f) and (i) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of 25% in principal amount of the outstanding
Notes notify the Company (with a copy to the Trustee if given by the Holders) of the default and the Company does not cure such
default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. In the event of any Event of Default specified under clause (g),
such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding any resulting payment default, other than as a result of acceleration
of Notes) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders, if within
60 days after such Event of Default arose: (i) Holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as
the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (ii) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
cured or (iii) the Indebtedness that is the basis for such Event of Default has been repaid or otherwise discharged.

 

For the purposes of this Section 6.01,
whether a Guarantor or a group of Guarantors would constitute a Significant Subsidiary shall be determined at the end of the four
fiscal quarter period most recently ended at or prior to such time and for which financial statements are available, calculated
on a pro forma basis.

 

SECTION
6.02. Acceleration.

 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may by written notice to the Company (and
to the Trustee if notice is given by the Holders) declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on all the
Notes to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event
of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) hereof occurs and is continuing, the principal of and interest, if any, on all the
Notes will ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the
Trustee or any Holders of Notes. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind, by written
notice to the Trustee on behalf of all the Holders, any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences.

 

SECTION
6.03. Other Remedies.

 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction
of any Holders of Notes unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity and/or security.

 

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 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.

    	38

    	

    

SECTION
6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults.

 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all Holders of the Notes: (1) waive any existing
Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment
of interest, if any, on, or the principal of or premium on, the Notes; and (2) 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
or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. Upon any such waiver, such Default
or Event of 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 Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

 

SECTION
6.05. Control by Majority.

 

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available
to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction
that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder
of a Note (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any such directions
are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

 

SECTION
6.06. Limitation on Suits.

 

Except to enforce the right to receive payment
of principal, premium (if any) or interest (if any) when due, no Holder of a Note may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture
or the Notes unless:

 

(a)such Holder
has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

 

(b)Holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the remedy;

 

(c)such Holders
have offered the Trustee security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 

 

(d)the Trustee
has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt thereof and the offer of security and/or indemnity; and

 

(e)Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a written direction inconsistent
with such request within such 60-day period.

 

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 or to enforce
any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders.

 

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, if any, and interest on such Note, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in such Note (including in connection with an offer to purchase or redemption), 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.

    	39

    	

    

SECTION
6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee.

 

If an Event of Default specified in Section
6.01(a) 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 Company for the whole amount of principal of, 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 Company (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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06 hereof. 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 7.06 hereof 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 VI, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

 

First: to the Trustee, its agents
and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.06 hereof, 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 Company or to such
party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

 

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 cost of the suit, and the
court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable 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.

    	40

TRUSTEE

 

SECTION
7.01. Duties of Trustee.

 

(a)If an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this

understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to
resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

 

SECTION
7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee.

 

The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity,
may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same
rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate
such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with
like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Section 7.09.

 

SECTION
7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer.

 

The Trustee shall not be responsible for and
makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s
use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of
this Indenture, it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the
Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document
in connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication.

 

SECTION
7.05. Notice of Defaults.

 

If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is
continuing and if it is actually known to a Responsible Officer, the Trustee shall mail (or deliver by electronic transmission
in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) to Holders of Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90
days after the later of (a) the date the Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and (b) the date such Responsible Officer
first had such actual knowledge. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, or interest on,
any Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines
that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

 

SECTION
7.06. Compensation and Indemnity.

 

The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time
to time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as such parties shall agree in writing from
time to time. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust.
The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred
or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements
and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel.

 

The Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally,
shall indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses
incurred by it

    	43

    	

    

arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the
Company (including this Section 7.06) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder
or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except
to the extent any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense may be attributable to its negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
(as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction). The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which
it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder.
The Company shall defend the claim, and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense at the expense of the Company. The Trustee may
have separate counsel, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for
any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any settlement which affects the Trustee
may not be entered into without the written consent of the Trustee, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless the Trustee
is given a full and unconditional release from liability with respect to the claims covered thereby and such settlement does not
include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Trustee.

 

The obligations of the Company under this Section
7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

 

To secure the Company’s payment obligations
in this Section 7.06, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the
Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture.

 

When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services
after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services
(including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the Bankruptcy
Code.

 

SECTION
7.07. Replacement of Trustee.

 

A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment
of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in
this Section 7.07.

 

The Trustee may resign in writing at any time
and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Company. The Holders of Notes of a majority in principal amount
of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove
the Trustee if:

 

(a)the Trustee
fails to comply with Section 7.09 hereof;

 

(b)the Trustee
is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under the Bankruptcy Code;

 

(c)a Custodian
takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

 

(d)the Trustee
becomes incapable of acting.

 

If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a
vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. Within one year
after the successor Trustee takes office, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may appoint
a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Company.

 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within
60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the expense of the Company), the Company, or
the Holders of Notes of at

    	44

    	

    

least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction (in the case of the Trustee, at the expense of the Company) for the appointment
of a successor Trustee.

 

If the Trustee, after written request by any
Holder of a Note who has been a Holder of a Note for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.09 hereof, such
Holder of a Note may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor
Trustee.

 

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance
of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall
become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The
successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of the Notes. The retiring Trustee shall promptly transfer all
property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, provided that all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have
been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.06 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant
to this Section 7.07, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.06 hereof shall continue for the benefit of
the retiring Trustee.

 

SECTION
7.08. Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.

 

If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts
into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation, the successor corporation
without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. As soon as practicable, the successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its
succession to the Company and the Holders of the Notes.

 

SECTION
7.09. Eligibility; Disqualification.

 

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder
that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that
is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or
state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million as set forth in its most recent published
annual report of condition.

 

SECTION
7.10. Patriot Act.

 

The Company acknowledges
that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help
fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each
person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree
that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may reasonably request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements
of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act.

SECTION
8.01. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

 

This Indenture shall upon delivery of a written
request of an Officer of the Company to the Trustee cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes (except as to any surviving
rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Notes herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the
Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes,
when:

 

(a)either

    	45

    	

    

(i)all
Notes that have been authenticated and delivered (other than (1) such Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which
have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.07 hereof and (2) such Notes for which payment money has been deposited
in trust as provided in Section 8.07 hereof) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

 

(ii)(1)
all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the giving of a notice
of redemption or otherwise, will become due and payable within one year or are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the
expense, of the Company, and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee,
as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, 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 theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to
the date of maturity or redemption, as the case may be; provided that with respect to any redemption that requires the payment
of the Applicable Premium, the amount deposited shall be sufficient for the purposes of this Indenture to the extent that an amount
is so deposited with the Trustee equal to the Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of the notice of redemption, with any
deficit on the date of redemption only required to be deposited with the Trustee on or prior to the date of redemption;

 

(2)no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit
(other than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar
and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith),

 

(3)the
Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by the Company under this Indenture, or

 

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

 

In addition, the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject to customary assumptions
and exclusions) each stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge in clauses (2) and (4) above have been
satisfied, provided, that the Opinion of Counsel with respect to clause (2) may be limited to the knowledge of counsel.

 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture with respect to the Notes, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.06 hereof, and,
if U.S. dollars or Government Securities shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of
this Section 8.01, the obligations of the Company or Trustee under Section 8.02 hereof and Section 8.08 hereof
shall survive.

 

SECTION
8.02. Application of Trust Money.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.08
hereof, all money and Government Securities deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.01 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 Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled
thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money or Government Securities has been deposited
with the Trustee.

    	46

    	

    

SECTION
8.03. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

 

The Company may, at the option of its Board of
Directors evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officer’s Certificate, at any time, exercise its right under either Section
8.04 or 8.05 hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this
Article VIII.

 

SECTION
8.04. Legal Defeasance and Discharge.

 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section
8.03 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.04 with respect to the Notes, each of the Company and the Guarantors
shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.06 hereof, be deemed to have discharged its
obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and, as applicable, its Guarantees in respect of the Notes, and all Guarantees
shall be automatically released, on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”).
For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that each of the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to have paid and discharged
the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, and to the extent applicable, represented by the Guarantees in respect
of the Notes, which in each case shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section
8.07 hereof, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes or Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee,
on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following
provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders to receive payments
in respect of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when such payments are due (but not any payment required
following a Change of Control), solely out of the trust referred to below, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to
the Notes under Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.07, 2.10 and 4.02 hereof, (c) the rights, powers, trusts,
duties protections and immunities of the Trustee, and the Company’s obligations in connection therewith and (d) this Article

notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.05 hereof. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise
under Section 8.03 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.04 hereof, nothing in Section 6.01 shall
constitute an Event of Default.

 

SECTION
8.05. Covenant Defeasance.

 

Upon the Company’s exercise under Section
8.03 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.05, each of the Company and the Guarantors shall, with
respect to the outstanding Notes, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.06 hereof, be
released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Article IV hereof (other than Sections 4.01, 4.02
and 4.12) on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant
Defeasance”), and the Notes shall 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 shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood
that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that,
with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall 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 shall 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 shall be unaffected thereby.
In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.03 hereof of the option applicable to this Section
8.05 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.06 hereof, Section
6.01(d), Section 6.01(e), Section 6.01(g), Section 6.01(h) (solely with respect to Significant
Subsidiaries), Section 6.01(i) and Section 6.01(j) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default, and all
obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantees shall be released.

    	47

    	

    

SECTION
8.06. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

application of either Section 8.04 or 8.05 hereof in order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
with respect to the outstanding Notes:

 

(a)the Company
must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, Government Securities,
or a combination thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants, a nationally recognized investment bank or a nationally recognized appraisal or valuation firm delivered to the Trustee,
without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the outstanding
Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the
Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

 

(b)in the
case of Legal Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary
assumptions and exclusions, (a) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service
a ruling, or (b) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to
the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that the beneficial owners will be subject to U.S. 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;

 

(c)in the
case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that, subject to customary
assumptions and exclusions, the beneficial owners will be subject to U.S. 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;

 

(d)no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit (other
than a Default or an Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and any similar
and simultaneous deposit relating to other Indebtedness and, in each case, the granting of Liens in connection therewith) and the
deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Credit Agreements or any other material
agreement or material debt instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which
the Company or any Guarantor is bound;

 

(e)the Company
has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel may be subject
to customary assumptions and exclusions), each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant
Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with; and

 

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

 

SECTION
8.07. Deposited Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous
Provisions.

 

Subject to Section 8.08 hereof, all money
and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.06
hereof in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions
of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company 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, if any, and interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law.

 

The Company shall 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 8.06

    	48

    	

    

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 applicable
outstanding Notes.

 

Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or
non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.06 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 8.06(a) 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
8.08. Repayment to Company.

 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying
Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on,
any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest, if any, has become due and
payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as a secured creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of
the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall 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 Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national
edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days
from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

 

SECTION
8.09. Reinstatement.

 

If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply
any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Sections 8.04 or 8.05 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 Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the applicable Notes shall be revived and reinstated
as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Sections 8.04 or 8.05 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying
Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Sections 8.04 or 8.05 hereof, as the case may be; provided,
however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest, if any, on, any Note following
the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall 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.

appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such
amended or supplemental indenture that affects its own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

SECTION
9.02. With Consent of Holders of Notes.

 

Without the consent of each Holder of a Note
affected thereby, an amendment or waiver may not, among other things:

 

(a)reduce
the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment;

 

(b)reduce
the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;

    	50

SECTION
9.03. 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 waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An
amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.

 

SECTION
9.04. Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

 

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation
about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company, in exchange for all Notes affected
by the applicable amendment, supplement or waiver, may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment,
supplement or waiver.

 

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

 

SECTION
9.05. Trustee to Sign Amendments, Etc.

 

The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental
indenture authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture
which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. The Company
may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental
indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying
upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture
is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel nor an Officer’s
Certificate, nor a board resolution, shall be required for the Trustee to execute any supplemental indenture to this Indenture,
the form of which is attached as Exhibit B hereto, adding a new Guarantor under this Indenture.

    	51

    	

    

SECTION
9.06. Form of Amendment.

 

The consent of the Holders of the Notes is not
necessary under this Indenture to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment. It is sufficient if such consent approves
the substance of the proposed amendment.

 

ARTICLE

GUARANTEES

 

SECTION
10.01. Guarantees.

 

Subject to this Article X, each Guarantor
hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees on a senior unsecured basis 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 held thereby and the Obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder, that:

 

(a)the principal
of, and premium, if any, interest, if any, on, the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any applicable grace
period, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, upon repurchase or redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal
of, and premium, if any, (to the extent permitted by law) interest, if any, on, the Notes, and all other payment Obligations of
the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full and performed, all in accordance
with the terms hereof and thereof; and

 

(b)in case
of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other Obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in
full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, subject to any applicable grace period, whether
at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, upon repurchase or redemption or otherwise.

 

Failing payment when so due of any amount so
guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay
the same immediately. An Event of Default under this Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of default under the Guarantees,
and shall entitle the Holders to accelerate the Obligations of the Guarantors hereunder and under the Notes in the same manner
and to the same extent as the Obligations of the Company hereunder and under the Notes. The Guarantors hereby agree that their
Obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the
absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof,
the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance (other than complete
performance) which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor, to the
extent permitted by law, hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands
whatsoever and covenants that its Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the Obligations contained
in the Notes and this Indenture or upon the release of such Guarantee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof. If any Holder or
the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors, or any Note Custodian, Trustee, liquidator
or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by the Company or any Guarantor
to the Trustee or such Holder, the Guarantees, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to, and hereby waives, any right to exercise any right of subrogation in relation
to the Holders in respect of any Obligations guaranteed hereby, except as provided under Section 10.04 hereof. Each Guarantor
further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity
of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI hereof for the purposes of its Guarantee,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed
thereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Obligations as provided in Article VI hereof,
such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of its
Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to

    	52

    	

    

seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor
pursuant to Section 10.04 hereof after the Notes and the Obligations hereunder shall have been paid in full to the Holders
under the Guarantees.

 

SECTION
10.02. Execution and Delivery of Additional Guarantee or Supplemental Indenture; Notation
of Guarantee.

 

To effect any additional Guarantee set forth
in Section 10.01 hereof, any future Guarantor shall execute and deliver a supplemental indenture substantially in the form
of Exhibit B hereto, which supplemental indenture shall be entered into in accordance with Section 4.06 hereof and
shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor, by manual or facsimile signature, by an Officer of such Guarantor.

 

To evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section
10.01 hereof, each Guarantor of a Note hereby agrees that this Indenture (or a supplemental indenture substantially in the
form of Exhibit B attached hereto, which supplemental indenture shall be entered into in accordance with Section 4.06
hereof) shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by an Officer or person holding an equivalent title.

 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee
set forth in Section 10.01 hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement of
any notation of such Guarantee on the Notes. If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture no longer holds that office at
the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Guarantees shall be valid nevertheless.

 

The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after
the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the
Guarantors.

 

For so long as a Guarantee of such Guarantor
remains in full force and effect, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its attorney-in-fact for the purpose
of executing in the name and on behalf of such Guarantor any supplemental indenture to this Indenture, or consent to any such supplemental
indenture, which the Company and the Trustee are authorized to enter into pursuant to Sections 9.01 or 9.02 hereof.

 

SECTION
10.03. Releases.

 

The Guarantee of a Guarantor shall be automatically
and unconditionally released and discharged:

 

(a)upon the
sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of a Guarantor;

 

(b)upon the
sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of a Guarantor;

 

(c)at such
time as such Guarantor no longer guarantees any (i) Debt Facility with an aggregate amount of $100.0 million or more (including,
without limitation, the Credit Agreements) other than any Material Capital Markets Debt or (ii) Material Capital Markets Debt (in
each case, other than the Notes or other debt instruments in respect of which such Guarantee would be released at substantially
the same time as the Guarantee of the Notes);

 

(d)upon the
defeasance of the Notes, as provided under Section 8.03 hereof, or the discharge of the Company’s obligations under
this Indenture in accordance with the terms hereof as provided in Section 8.01 hereof;

 

(e)as described
in Article IX; or

 

(f)upon the
liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

    	53

    	

    

In the case of clauses (a) or (b) in this Section
10.03, in each case other than to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company and as permitted by this Indenture, and in the
case of clause (c), in the event that any released Guarantor thereafter would be required to provide a Guarantee under Section
4.06 hereof, such former Guarantor will again provide a Guarantee.

 

Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of
an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that any of the conditions set forth in clauses (a) through (f) of the immediately
preceding paragraph has occurred, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release
of any Guarantor from its Obligation under its Guarantee and this Indenture. Any Guarantor not released from its Obligations under
its Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes
and for the other Obligations of such Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article X.

 

SECTION
10.04. Limitation on Guarantor Liability; Contribution.

 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes,
each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a
fraudulent conveyance or a fraudulent transfer for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal, state or foreign law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate
the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor
shall be limited to the maximum amount as 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
X, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer
under applicable law. Each Guarantor that makes a payment under its Guarantee will be entitled upon payment in full of all Guarantee
Obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s
pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Guarantors at the time of such payment, determined
in accordance with GAAP.

 

SECTION
10.05. Trustee to Include Paying Agent.

 

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than
the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used
in this Article X shall in each case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including
such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully and for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article
X in place of the Trustee.

(i) to register the transfer of
such Definitive Notes; or

 

(ii) to exchange such Definitive
Notes for an equal principal amount of Definitive Notes of other authorized denominations,

 

the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange
as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Definitive
Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange:

 

(1) shall be duly endorsed or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed
by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing; and

 

(2) in the case of Transfer Restricted
Notes, are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable:

 

(A) if such Definitive Notes are
being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from
such Holder to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Initial Note); or

 

(B) if such Definitive Notes are
being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Initial Note);
or

 

(C) if such Definitive Notes are
being transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or in reliance upon an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act, (x) a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse
side of the Initial Note) and (y) if the Company so requests, an opinion of counsel or other evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it as to the compliance with the restrictions set forth in the legend set forth in Section 2.3(e)(i).

 

(b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Definitive
Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Definitive Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global
Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Definitive Note, duly endorsed
or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with:

    	A-3

    	

    

(i) certification (in the
form set forth on the reverse side of the Initial Note) that such Definitive Note is being transferred (1) to the Company, (2)
to the Registrar for registration in the name of a Holder, without transfer, (3) pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act, (4) to a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A, (5) outside the United States in an offshore transaction
within the meaning of Regulation S and in compliance with Rule 904 under the Securities Act, (6) in accordance with another exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company if the
Company so requests) or (7) pursuant to another available exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities
Act; and

 

(ii) written instructions
directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Securities Custodian to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect
to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such
instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase,

 

then the Trustee shall cancel such Definitive Note and cause,
or direct the Securities Custodian to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary
and the Securities Custodian, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate
principal amount of the Definitive Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified
in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Definitive Note so canceled.
If no Global Notes are then outstanding and the Global Note has not been previously exchanged for certificated Notes pursuant to
Section 2.4, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of
an Officer’s Certificate, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.

 

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.
(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance
with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary
therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s
procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest
in such Global Note or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest
in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial
interest in the Global Note being transferred. Transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note to a
transferee who takes delivery of such interest through the Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of
the Restricted Period, shall be made only upon receipt by the Trustee of a certification in the form provided on the reverse of
the Initial Notes from the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Regulation S or (if available)
Rule 144 under the Securities Act and that, if such transfer is being made prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, the
interest transferred shall be held immediately thereafter through Euroclear or Clearstream.

 

(ii) If the proposed transfer
is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall
reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is
being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect
on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest
is being transferred.

 

(iii) Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Appendix (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Note may not be transferred as
a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another
nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

    	A-4

    	

    

(d) Restrictions on Transfer of Regulation S
Global Note. (i) Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, interests in the Regulation S Global Note may only
be held through Euroclear or Clearstream. During the Restricted Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global
Note may only be sold, pledged or transferred through Euroclear or Clearstream in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and
only (1) to the Company, (2) so long as such note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, to a person whom
the selling Holder reasonably believes is a QIB that purchases for its own account or for the account of a QIB to whom notice is
given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (3) in an offshore transaction in accordance
with Regulation S, (4) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144
(if applicable) under the Securities Act, (5) in accordance with another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act (and based upon an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company if the Company so requests) or (6) pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of
the United States. Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers by an owner of a beneficial interest in the Regulation
S Global Note to a transferee who takes delivery of such interest through the Rule 144A Global Note shall be made only in accordance
with Applicable Procedures and upon receipt by the Trustee of a written certification from the transferor of the beneficial interest
in the form provided on the reverse of the Initial Note to the effect that such transfer is being made to a QIB within the meaning
of Rule 144A in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A. Such written certification shall no longer be required after
the expiration of the Restricted Period.

 

(ii) Upon the expiration of the
Restricted Period, beneficial ownership interests in the Regulation S Global Note shall be transferable in accordance with applicable
law and the other terms of this Indenture.

5.125% Senior Notes due 2025

 

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

 

1. Interest. Gartner, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 5.125% per annum
until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 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 the date of
original issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated
between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from
such next succeeding Interest Payment Date, except in the case of the original issuance of Notes, in which case interest shall
accrue from date of authentication; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be October 1, 2017.
The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) on overdue principal
and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at the rate borne on the Notes; it shall pay interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) on overdue installments of interest, if any, (without regard to any applicable
grace periods) from time to time on demand 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 Company
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 March 15 and September 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 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted
interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for
such purpose within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check
mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer
of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of, and interest and premium on, all Global Notes the
Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall 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,
U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change
any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

 

4. Indenture. The Company issued
the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of March 30, 2017, (“Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and
the Trustee, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and
Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act 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. The Notes are unsecured
obligations of the Company.

 

5. Optional Redemption. The Notes
will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after April 1, 2020, at the optional redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including
the optional redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on April 1 of each of the years indicated below:

    	A-12

    	

    

	Year	 	Redemption Price
	2020	 	103.844%
	2021	 	102.563%
	2022	 	101.281%
	2023 and thereafter	 	100.000%

 

Prior to April 1, 2020, the Company may,
at its option, on one or more occasions, redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes (calculated after
giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) at a redemption price equal to 105.125% of the aggregate principal amount thereof,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the redemption date, with the Net Cash Proceeds of one
or more equity offerings; provided that (1) at least 50% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Notes (calculated
after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption
and (2) each such redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of closing of each equity offering.

 

In addition, at any time prior to April
1, 2020, the Company is entitled, at its option, to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes plus the applicable premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding
the redemption date.

 

The Company and its Affiliates may acquire
the Notes by means other than a redemption pursuant to Section 3.07 of the Indenture, whether by tender offer, open market
purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise.

 

6. Mandatory Redemption. In the event
that (a) the Merger is not consummated on or prior to October 5, 2017 (the “end date”), or (b) at any time prior
to the end date, the Merger Agreement is terminated without the Merger being consummated (any such event, a “Special Mandatory
Redemption Event”), the Company will redeem all of the Notes (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”),
at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including,
the redemption date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price).

 

Notice of the occurrence of a Special Mandatory
Redemption Event and that a Special Mandatory Redemption is to occur (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Notice”),
shall be delivered to the Trustee and mailed by first class mail to each Holder of Notes’ registered address or electronically
delivered according to the procedures of DTC as to Global Notes, within ten Business Days after the Special Mandatory Redemption
Event. At the Company’s written request, the Trustee shall give the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice in the Company’s
name and at the Company’s expense. On such date specified in the Special Mandatory Redemption Notice as shall be no more
than ten Business Days (or such other minimum period as may be required by DTC) after mailing or sending the Special Mandatory
Redemption Notice, the Special Mandatory Redemption shall occur (the date of such redemption, the “Special Mandatory Redemption
Date”).

 

If funds sufficient to pay the Special Mandatory
Redemption Price of all of the Notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date are deposited with a paying agent or the Trustee
on or before such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, then on and after such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Notes shall
cease to bear interest and, other than the right to receive the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, all rights under such Notes
shall terminate.

 

Upon the consummation of the Merger, the
foregoing provisions regarding the Special Mandatory Redemption will cease to apply.

 

7. Repurchase at Option of Holder.
Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or
any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to a Change
of Control Offer described in the Indenture at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to but not including the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Offer”),
subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment
date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall send

    	A-13

    	

    

to each Holder a notice setting forth the procedures governing
such Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

 

8. Notice of Redemption. Except as
provided above in the case of a Special Mandatory Redemption Event or in connection with the satisfaction and discharge of the
Indenture or Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, notice of redemption will be mailed at least 10 days but not more than 60
days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations
larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part in whole multiples of $1,000; provided that the unredeemed principal amount of
such Notes is not less than $2,000. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called
for redemption.

 

9. Denominations, Transfer,
Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $ 1,000
in excess thereof. The transfer of the Notes may be registered and the 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 Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need
not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes or portion of any Notes selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion
of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, it 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. The Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented as provided in the Indenture.

 

12. Defaults and Remedies. The Events
of Default relating to the Notes are defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
the rights and obligations of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders shall be as set forth in the applicable
provisions of the Indenture.

 

13. Trustee Dealings with Company.
The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for, the Company
or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

 

14. No Recourse Against Others. A
director, officer, employee, manager, incorporator, partner, member or stockholder of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company
or any Guarantor, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company or Guarantors under the Notes, the 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.

 

15. Authentication. This Note shall
not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of a Responsible Officer or an authenticating agent.

 

16. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations
may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties),
JT TEN (Joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts
to Minors Act).

 

17. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a
recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers
to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation
is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in

    	A-14

    	

    

any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on
the other identification numbers placed thereon.
