to the designation or issuance of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock authorized by and complying with the conditions of this Certificate of Incorporation. 

FIFTH: Special meetings of stockholders may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, the
Chief Executive Officer (or if there is no Chief Executive Officer, the President) or the board of directors. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the
notice of the general meeting. From and after the effective date of the Form 8-A Registration Statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the stockholders of the Corporation shall not be

monetary damages arising out of such director’s breach of fiduciary duty as a director of the Corporation, except to the extent that the elimination or limitation of such liability is not permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. No amendment to or repeal of the provisions of this Article SIXTH shall deprive any director of the Corporation of the benefit of the provisions of this Article SIXTH with respect to any act
or failure to act of any director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

by-law, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise. No amendment to or repeal of the provisions of this paragraph shall deprive a person of the benefit of this paragraph with respect to any act
or failure to act of such person occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

combined into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock automatically and without any action by the holder thereof upon the Effective Time and shall represent one share of Common Stock from and after the Effective Time
(such reclassification and combination of shares, the “Reverse Stock Split”). The par value of the Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split shall remain at $0.01 par value per share. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be
issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and, in lieu thereof, upon surrender after the Effective Time of a certificate which formerly represented shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time,
any person who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, following the Effective Time, shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the fraction of a share of Common Stock to
which such holder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the fair value per share of the Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time as determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. 

Each stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent that number of whole shares of Common Stock after the Effective Time into which
the shares formerly represented by such certificate have been reclassified (as well as the right to receive cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock after the Effective Time); provided, however, that each person of record holding a
certificate that represented shares of Common Stock 

 
that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall receive, upon surrender of such certificate, a new certificate evidencing and representing the number of whole
shares of Common Stock after the Effective Time into which the shares of Common Stock formerly represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified. The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of capital stock, one of which is
designated as Common Stock, and the other of which is designated as preferred stock, $.01 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). The total number of shares of both classes of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to
issue is 72,500,000 shares, consisting of 67,500,000 shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as set forth in Section (b) of this Article FOURTH.

“Acquired Debt”
means, with respect to any specified Person:

 

(1)            Indebtedness
of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Subsidiary of such specified Person, whether

(i)            the
discounted future net revenues from Proved Reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries calculated in accordance with SEC
guidelines before any U.S. state or federal or non-U.S. income taxes, as estimated in the reserve report prepared either as of the end
of the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year, or, at the Company’s option, the most recently completed fiscal quarter,
in each case, for which financial statements are available, which reserve report is prepared or audited by independent petroleum engineers
as to Proved Reserves accounting for at least 80% of all such discounted future net revenues and by the Company’s petroleum engineers
with respect to any other Proved Reserves covered by such report, as increased by, as of the date of determination, the estimated discounted
future net revenues from:

 

(A)            estimated
Proved Reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries acquired (including on the date of determination) since the date of such
year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable; and

 

    1 

     

    

 

(B)            estimated
Proved Reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries attributable to extensions, discoveries and other additions and upward
revisions of estimates of Proved Reserves (including previously estimated development costs incurred during the period and the accretion
of discount since the prior period end) since the date of such year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable, due to exploration,

(C)            estimated

(D)            reductions
in estimated Proved Reserves of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries reflected in such year-end or quarterly reserve report since
the date of such year-end or quarterly reserve report attributable to downward revisions of estimates of Proved Reserves since the date
of such year-end or quarterly reserve report, as applicable, due to changes in geological conditions or other factors which would, in
accordance with standard industry practice, cause such revisions;

 

in the case of the preceding clauses (A) through
(D), calculated on a pre-tax basis in accordance with SEC guidelines (utilizing the prices utilized in the Company’s year-end or
quarterly reserve report, as applicable) and estimated by the Company’s petroleum engineers or any independent petroleum engineers
engaged by the Company for that purpose;

 

(ii)            the
capitalized costs that are attributable to oil and gas properties of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to which no Proved Reserves
are attributable, based on the Company’s books and records as of a date no earlier than the last day of the Company’s most
recent quarterly or annual period for which internal financial statements are available;

 

(iii)            the
Consolidated Net Working Capital of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of a date no earlier than the last day of the Company’s
most recent quarterly or annual period for which internal financial statements are available; and

 

(iv)            the
greater of:

 

(A)            the
net book value, and

 

    2 

     

    

 

(B)            the
fair market value,

 

in each case, of other tangible assets
(including Investments in unconsolidated Subsidiaries) of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of a date no earlier than the
last day of the date of the Company’s most recent quarterly or annual period for which internal financial statements are available;
provided that the Company shall not be required to obtain such an appraisal of any assets,

 

minus,
to the extent not otherwise taken into account in this clause (a),

 

(b)            the
sum of:

amount included in clauses (a)(i)(A) through (a)(i)(D) above that is attributable to minority interests;

 

(ii)            any

or quarterly period for which internal financial statements are available (to the extent not deducted in calculating Net Working Capital
of the Company in accordance with clause (a)(iii) of this definition);

 

(iii)            to
the extent included in clause (a)(i) above, the discounted future net revenues, calculated on a pre-tax basis in accordance

to reserves that are required to be delivered to third parties to fully satisfy the obligations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries
with respect to Volumetric Production Payments on the schedules specified with respect thereto; and

 

(iv)            to
the extent included in clause (a)(i) above, the discounted future net revenues, calculated on a pre-tax basis in accordance with
SEC guidelines (utilizing the prices and costs utilized in the applicable reserve report described in clause (a)(i)), attributable to
reserves subject to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments that, based on the estimates of production, price and cost assumptions included
in determining the discounted future net revenues specified in (a)(i) above, would be necessary to fully satisfy the payment obligations
of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to Dollar-Denominated Production Payments on the schedules specified with
respect thereto.

 

Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this definition, the Company may, at its option, (x) calculate Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets using
Strip Prices in lieu of commodity pricing of future net revenues based on SEC guidelines (or any other calculation or adjustment in the
foregoing paragraphs (a) and (b) of this definition that is based on SEC guidelines) or (y) on any date of determination,
calculate the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets as of a date not more than 30 days prior to the date of determination
(the “ACNTA Calculation Date”) on the following basis: (A) in lieu of commodity pricing of future net revenues
based on SEC guidelines (or any other calculation or adjustment in the foregoing paragraphs (a) and (b) of this definition
that is based on SEC guidelines), Strip Prices shall be used after giving effect to commodity derivatives contracts in effect as of the
ACNTA Calculation Date, and (B) such calculation shall be based on then current estimates of costs in light of prevailing market
conditions, in each case as determined in good faith by the Company, and at its option, by applying such adjustments (i) with internal
Company calculations to the previously calculated Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets amount or (ii) by obtaining a separate
reserve report.

 

    3

Section 1.05     Limited
Condition Transactions; Measuring Compliance

 

(a)            With
respect to any (x) Investment or acquisition, in each case, the consummation by the Company or any Subsidiary of which is not conditioned
on the availability of, or on obtaining, third-party financing for such Investment or acquisition (whether by merger, amalgamation, consolidation
or other business combination or the acquisition of Capital Stock or otherwise) as applicable and (y) redemption, repurchase, defeasance,
satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock requiring irrevocable notice in advance
of such redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment (any transaction described in clauses (x) or
(y), a “Limited Condition Transaction”), in each case for purposes of determining:

 

(1)            whether
any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is being incurred or issued in connection with
such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be incurred in compliance with Section 4.09 hereof;

 

(2)            whether
any Lien being incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction or to secure any such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock is permitted to be incurred in accordance with the covenant described under Section 4.12 hereof or the definition
of “Permitted Liens”;

 

(3)            whether
any other transaction (including any Investment or Restricted Payment) undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such
Limited Condition Transaction complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture or the Notes; and

 

    37 

     

    

 

(4)            any
calculation of the Consolidated Total Net Debt to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Income,
and/or Consolidated Cash Flow and/or Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets and, whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection
with the foregoing,

 

at the option of the Company, the date that the
definitive agreement (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (the “Transaction
Agreement Date”) may be used as the applicable date of determination, as the case may be, in each case with such pro forma
adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of “Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio” or “Consolidated Cash Flow” and if the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries could
have taken such action on the relevant Transaction Agreement Date in compliance with the applicable ratios or other provisions, such
provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company elects to use the Transaction Agreement
Date as the applicable date of determination in accordance with the foregoing, (a) such election may not be revoked, (b) any
fluctuation or change in the Consolidated Total Net Debt to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Net
Income, Consolidated Cash Flow or Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company, the target business, or assets to be acquired
subsequent to the Transaction Agreement Date and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, will not be taken into
account for purposes of determining whether any Investment, Restricted Payment, Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock
or Lien that is being made, incurred or issued in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted to be made, incurred
or issued or in connection with compliance by the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries with any other provision of this Indenture
or the Notes or any other action or transaction undertaken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction and (c) until
such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreements related thereto are terminated, such Limited Condition
Transaction and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including the making of any Restricted Payment, or
Investments, or the incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens) will be given pro forma effect when determining compliance of other transactions
(including the making of any Restricted Payment, or Investments, or the incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, Preferred
Stock and Liens unrelated to such Investment, acquisition or repayment, repurchase or refinancing of Indebtedness) that are consummated
after the Transaction Agreement Date and on or prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction and any such transactions
(including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof) will be
deemed to have occurred on the Transaction Agreement Date and outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios
under this Indenture after the date of such agreement and before the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction; provided
that for purposes of any such calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charges will be calculated using an assumed interest
rate for the Indebtedness to be incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction based on the indicative interest margin
contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists,
as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith. Each item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that is incurred
or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the
extent available, pursuant to the relevant Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or Consolidated Total Net Debt to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio
test.

 

    38 

     

    

  

(b)            Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (x) incurs Indebtedness, issues Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock, creates Liens, makes Asset Sales, makes Investments, makes Restricted Payments, designates any Subsidiary as
a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in connection
with any Limited Condition Transaction under a ratio-based basket and (y) incurs Indebtedness, issues Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock, creates Liens, makes Asset Sales, Investments or Restricted Payments, designates any as a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted
Subsidiary or repays any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction under
a non-ratio-based basket (which shall occur within five (5) Business Days of the events in clause (x) above), then the applicable
ratio will be calculated with respect to any such action under the applicable ratio-based basket without regard to any such action under
such non-ratio-based basket made in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction. In addition, compliance with any requirement
relating to absence of Default or Event of Default may be determined as of the Transaction Agreement Date and not as of any later date
as would otherwise be required under this Indenture.

The Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent reasonably 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.

 

The Initial Notes and the
Additional Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture; provided that if any such Additional
Notes are not fungible with the existing Notes for United States federal income tax purposes, such Additional Notes will have a separate
CUSIP number from the existing Notes. Holders of the Initial Notes and the Additional Notes will vote and consent together on all matters
to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent as one class, and none of the Holders of the Initial Notes and the Additional Notes
shall have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter to which such Holders are entitled to vote or consent.

 

Section 2.03         Registrar
and Paying Agent.

 

The Company will maintain
an office or agency 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 for the Notes will 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 will 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 the Company’s Subsidiaries may act as Paying
Agent or Registrar.

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

 

The Company initially appoints
the Trustee to act as the Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes (at its office indicated in the definition of Corporate Trust Office
of the Trustee in Section 1.01 hereof) and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global Notes.

 

Section 2.04        Paying
Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

 

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

 

    41 

     

    

 

Section 2.05         Holder

The Trustee will 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 will furnish to the Trustee at least seven 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.

 

Section 2.06          Transfer
and Exchange.

 

(a)            Transfer
and Exchange of Global Notes. A Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary,
by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or any such nominee to
a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. All Global Notes will be exchanged by the Company for Definitive Notes
if:

 

(1)            the
Depositary notifies the Company (A) that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as Depositary or (B) that it is no
longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company
within 90 days after the date of such notice from the Depositary;

 

(2)            the
Company, at its option but subject to the Depositary’s requirements, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the
issuance of the Definitive Notes; or

 

(3)            there
has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default and the Depositary notifies the Trustee of its decision to exchange such Global Note
for Definitive Notes.

 

Upon the occurrence of the
preceding events in (1), (2) or (3) above, Definitive Notes of shall be issued in such names as the Depositary shall instruct
the Trustee. Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in part, as provided in Sections 2.07 and 2.10 hereof.
Every Note authenticated and delivered in exchange for, or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof, pursuant to this Section 2.06
or Sections 2.07 or 2.10 hereof, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Note. A Global Note may
not be exchanged for another Note other than as provided in this Section 2.06(a); however, beneficial interests in a Global Note
may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.06(b) or (c) hereof. Whenever any provision herein refers
to issuance by the Company and authentication and delivery by the Trustee of a new Note in exchange for the portion of a surrendered
Note that has not been redeemed or repurchased, as the case may be, in lieu of the surrender of any Global Note and the issuance, authentication
and delivery of a new Global Note in exchange therefor, the Trustee or the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee may endorse such
Global Note to reflect a reduction in the principal amount represented thereby in the amount of Notes so represented that have been so
redeemed or repurchased.

 

(b)            Transfer
and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in the Global Notes. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will
be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Applicable Procedures. Participants and
Indirect Participants shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary
or by the Trustee as the Custodian with respect to the Global Notes, and the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee shall be entitled to treat the Depositary as the absolute owner of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to
any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Participants
or the Indirect Participants, the operation of customary practices of such Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder
of a beneficial interest in any Global Note. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.06 and Section 12.16, the Holder
of a Global Note shall be entitled to grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Participants and Indirect Participants
and Persons that may hold interests through such Persons, to take any action that a Holder of Notes is entitled to take under this Indenture
or the Notes. Beneficial interests in the Restricted Global Notes will be subject to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set

and/or Adjustment of Global Notes. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Note have been exchanged for beneficial
interests in another Global Note or Definitive Notes, or a particular Global Note has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole
and not in part, each such Global Note will be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with Section 2.11
hereof. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for or transferred to a Person
who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note or for Definitive Notes, the principal amount
of Notes represented by such Global Note will be reduced accordingly and an endorsement will be made on such Global Note by the Trustee
or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for
or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global

(i)            General
Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

 

(1)            To
permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive
Notes upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof or at the Registrar’s request.

 

(2)            No
service charge will be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration
of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge
payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer
pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, 3.09, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.04 hereof).

 

(3)            All
Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes will be the
valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes
or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

 

    53

     

    

 

(4)            Neither
the Registrar nor the Company will be required:

 

(A)            to
issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day
of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection;

 

(B)            to
register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note
being redeemed in part; or

 

(C)            to
register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date.

 

(5)            Prior
to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person
in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest
on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

(6)            The
Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 hereof.

 

(7)            All
certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Registrar pursuant to this Section 2.06 to
effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile or electronic image scan.

 

(8)            The
Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in, DTC or
other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of DTC or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect
to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other
than DTC) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or purchase) or the payment of any amount or delivery of any Notes (or other
security or property) under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments
to be made to Holders in respect of the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall
be DTC or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through
DTC subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information
furnished by DTC with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

 

(9)            Neither
the Registrar nor the Trustee shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions
on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including
any transfers between or among DTC participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such
certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms
of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. Neither
the Trustee nor any of its agents shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by DTC.

 

    54

     

    

 

(10)            The
transferor of any Note shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply
with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations under Section 6045
of the Code. The Trustee may rely on information provided to it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of
such information. In connection with any proposed exchange of a Note that is not a Global Note for a Global Note, the Company or the
Depositary shall be required to provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply
with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including without limitation any cost basis reporting obligations under Section 6045
of the Code. The Trustee may rely on information provided to it and shall have no responsibility to verify or ensure the accuracy of
such information.

 

Section 2.07     Replacement
Notes.

 

If any mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee and the Company receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Note, and such other reasonable requirements as may be imposed by the Company as permitted by Section 8-405
of the Uniform Commercial Code have been satisfied, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been
acquired by a “protected purchaser” within the meaning of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Company
will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements
are met. An indemnity bond must be supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Company to protect
each of the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.
The Company may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note.

 

Every replacement Note is
an additional obligation of the Company and will 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; however, Notes held by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company
shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.07(a) hereof.

 

    55

     

    

 

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 protected purchaser within the meaning of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

 

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 or an Affiliate of any thereof) holds, by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on a redemption date or other
maturity date, money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes will be deemed to be no longer
outstanding and will 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 any
Guarantor, or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company
or any Guarantor, will be considered as though not outstanding, except that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee will
be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows
are so owned will be so disregarded.

 

Section 2.10     Temporary
Notes.

 

Until certificates representing
Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, will authenticate temporary
Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate
for temporary Notes and as may be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company will prepare and the
Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes.

 

Holders of temporary Notes
will 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 will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them
for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of
transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will destroy canceled Notes in accordance with its internal policies and
customary procedures (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). 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 will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable
on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the
Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof; provided that no special record date shall be required with respect to defaulted interest
paid within the applicable grace period. The Company will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed
to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment. The Company will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date
and payment date; provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such
defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee
in the name and at the expense of the Company) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders of Notes a notice that states the special record
date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. The Trustee will have no duty whatsoever to determine whether
any Defaulted Interest is payable or the amount thereof.

 

    56

     

    

 

Section 2.13     Computation
of Interest.

 

Interest will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

 

Section 2.14     CUSIP
Numbers.

 

The Company will promptly
notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

to Trustee.

 

If the Company elects to
redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, it must furnish to the Trustee, at least five
Business Days (or such shorter time as may be acceptable to the Trustee) prior to the giving of notice of a redemption, an Officers’

If less than all of the Notes
are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Notes for redemption on a pro rata basis (or, in the case of Notes issued
in global form pursuant to Article 2 hereof, by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require) unless otherwise required
by law or applicable stock exchange requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part.

 

    57

     

    

 

The Trustee will promptly
notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the
principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts of $2,000 or whole multiples of $1,000
in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such
Holder shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption
also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

 

Section 3.03     Notice
of Redemption.

 

At least 10 days but not
more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed by first class mail (or sent electronically if
DTC is the recipient) a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption
notices may be given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of Notes or
a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11 hereof.

 

The notice will identify
the Notes (including the CUSIP number) to be redeemed and will state:

 

(a)            the
redemption date;

 

(b)            the
redemption price (if then determined and otherwise the method of determination);

 

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

 

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

 

(e)            that
Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

 

(f)            that,
unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after
the redemption date;

 

(g)            the
paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed;

 

(h)            that
no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes;
and

 

(i)            any
conditions precedent to the redemption.

 

At the Company’s request,
the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Company’s names and at the Company’s expense; provided, however,
that the Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof requests that the Trustee give such
notice and sets forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

 

    58

     

    

 

If such redemption is subject
to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the related notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall
state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall
be satisfied or waived (provided that in no event shall such date of redemption be delayed to a date later than 60 days after
the date on which such notice was mailed or delivered, including by electronic transmission), or such redemption may not occur and such
notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption,
or by the date of redemption as so delayed. The Company shall provide written notice of the delay of such date of redemption or the rescission
of such notice of redemption to the Trustee no later than 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (subject to DTC procedures) on the date of redemption.
Upon receipt of such notice of the delay of such date of redemption or the rescission of such notice of redemption, such date of redemption
shall be automatically delayed or such notice of redemption shall be automatically rescinded, as applicable, and the redemption of the
Notes to be redeemed shall be automatically delayed or rescinded and cancelled, as applicable, as provided in such notice.

 

Section 3.04     Effect
of Notice of Redemption.

 

Once notice of redemption
is mailed or given in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption will become irrevocably due and payable
(subject to Section 3.03) on the redemption date at the redemption price, subject to satisfaction of any condition specified with
respect to such redemption.

 

Section 3.05     Deposit
of Redemption Price.

 

No later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern
Time on the redemption date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of, and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return
to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the
redemption price of, and accrued interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed.

 

If the Company complies with
the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions
of Notes called for redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment
date, then any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of
business on such record date. If any Note called for redemption is not so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of
the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such
principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the
Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof.

 

    59

     

    

 

Section 3.06     Notes
Redeemed in Part.

 

Upon surrender of a Note
that is redeemed in part, the Company will issue and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee will authenticate for the
Holder at the expense of the Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.

In the event that, pursuant

the procedures specified below.

 

The Asset Sale Offer shall
be made to all Holders and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to
those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The Asset

paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be
payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

 

Upon the commencement of
an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Trustee and each of the Holders. The notice will contain
all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The notice, which will
govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state:

 

(a)            that
the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10 hereof and the length of time the Asset
Sale Offer will remain open;

 

(b)            the
Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

 

    61

     

    

 

(c)            that
any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;

 

(d)            that,
unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue
interest on and after the Purchase Date;

 

(e)            that
Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in minimum denominations
of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

 

(f)            that
Holders electing to have Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled
 “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company,
a depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase
Date;

 

(g)            that
Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives,
not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth
the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing
his election to have such Note purchased;

 

(h)            that,
if the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof exceeds the Offer Amount allocated to the purchase of Notes
in the Asset Sale Offer, the Trustee will select the Notes and the Issuer will select such other pari passu Indebtedness to be
purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes represented by a Global Note shall be selected by such method as DTC or its
nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata
selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise required by law) based on the principal amount of Notes or such
other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes
in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased); and

 

(i)            that
Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the
Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).

 

On or before the Purchase
Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Notes or portions
thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer and required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.09 and Section 4.10
hereof, or if Notes in an aggregate principal amount less than the Offer Amount allocated to the purchase of Notes in the Asset Sale
Offer have been tendered, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together
with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance
with the terms of this Section 3.09. The Company, the depositary for the Asset Sale Offer or the Paying Agent, as the case may
be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount
equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase (or, if such Notes are then
in global form, it will make such payment thereon through the facilities of DTC), and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and,
upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee, upon the written request of the Company,
will authenticate and mail or deliver (or cause to be transferred by book entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount
equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company
to the Holder thereof. The Company will publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date.

Section 3.10     Special
Mandatory Redemption.

 

(a)            If
(x) the consummation of the Mergers does not occur on or before December 31, 2021 (the “Outside Date”)
or (y) the Company notifies the Trustee that the Company will not pursue the consummation of the Mergers (the earlier of the date
of delivery of such notice described in clause (y) and the Outside Date, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger Date”),
the Company will be required to redeem the Notes then outstanding (such redemption, the “Special Mandatory Redemption”)
at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding,
the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (as defined in Section 3.10(b)) (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”).

 

(b)            In
the event that the Company becomes obligated to redeem the Notes pursuant to the Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company will promptly,
and in any event not more than ten Business Days after the Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger Date, deliver notice to the Trustee of
the Special Mandatory Redemption and the date upon which such notes will be redeemed (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date,”
which date shall be no later than the third Business Day following the date of such notice) together with a notice of Special Mandatory
Redemption for the Trustee to deliver to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof. The Trustee
will then promptly mail, or deliver electronically if such Notes are held by any Depositary (including, without limitation, DTC) in accordance
with such Depositary’s customary procedures, such notice of Special Mandatory Redemption to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed
at its registered address. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, on and after such Special
Mandatory Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes.

 

(c)            Any
redemption made pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be made pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Indenture, except to the
extent inconsistent with this Section 3.10.

 

Article 4

COVENANTS

 

Section 4.01     Payment
of Notes.

 

The Company will pay or cause
to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the
Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, holds as of 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by the Company in immediately
available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, then due.

 

    63

     

    

 

The Company will pay interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at a rate that is equal to the then
applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding
under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace period), at the same rate
to the extent lawful.

 

The Company may at any time,
for the purpose of obtaining satisfaction and discharge with respect to the Notes or for any other purpose, pay, or direct any Paying
Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the
same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to
the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

 

Subject to any applicable
escheat, or abandoned or unclaimed property law, 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, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such
principal, and premium, if any, or interest 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 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.

 

Section 4.02     Maintenance
of Office or Agency.

 

The Company will maintain,
an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee) where Notes may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or for exchange. If Definitive Notes are issued and outstanding, such office must be in the contiguous United States. The
Company initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice
to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company fails to maintain
any such required office or agency or fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be
made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

 

The Company may also from
time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes
and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in
any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the contiguous United States for such purposes if
required. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location
of any such other office or agency.

 

With respect to any Global
Notes, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be the office or agency where such Global Notes may be presented or surrendered
for payment or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Notes may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided,
however, that any such presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary shall
be deemed to have been effected at such office or agency in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

 

    64

     

    

 

Section 4.03     Reports.

 

(a)            So
long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will file with the SEC or make publicly available on a website, within the time periods
(including any extension thereof) specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations:

 

(1)            all
quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file
such reports as a non-accelerated filer; and

 

(2)            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.

 

(b)            The
requirements of Section 4.03(a) may be satisfied by the filing with the SEC for public availability by any direct or indirect
parent company of the Company of any Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10- Q or Current Report on Form 8-K,
containing the required information with respect to the Company or parent company, as applicable, and filed within the time period required
under the rules and regulations of the SEC for the filing of such forms; provided that, if applicable, any such financial
information required by the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial
statements or in the footnotes thereto or in a separate discussion (which may be contained in the “Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of the applicable quarterly or annual report), if any, between
the financial information of the parent company, on the one hand, and the Company and its Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the
other hand.

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing in Section 4.03(a), at any time when the Company does not otherwise file such reports with the SEC, the reports provided
pursuant to Section 4.03(a) (i) will not be required to contain the separate financial information for Guarantors as
contemplated by Rule 13-01 or 13-02 of Regulation S-X or any financial statements of unconsolidated subsidiaries or 50% or less
owned persons as contemplated by Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X or any schedules required by Regulation S-X, or in each case any successor
provisions and (ii) shall not be required to comply with Regulation G under the Exchange Act or Item 10(e) of Regulation
S-K with respect to any non-GAAP financial measures contained therein.

 

(d)            At
any time that any of the Company’s Significant Subsidiaries are Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the annual and quarterly financial
reports required by Section 4.03(a) will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial
statements or in the footnotes thereto or in a separate discussion (which may be contained in the “Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of the applicable quarterly or annual report) of the financial
condition and results of operations of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results
of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of the Company.

(e)           Any
and all Defaults or Events of Default arising from a failure to furnish in a timely manner any information required by this Section 4.03
shall be deemed cured (and the Company shall be deemed to be in compliance with this covenant) upon furnishing such information as contemplated
by this covenant (but without regard to the date on which such information or report is so furnished); provided that such cure
shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Holders in Section 6.01 if the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if
any, on, the Notes have been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such acceleration has not been rescinded
or cancelled prior to such cure.

 

(f)            The
Company shall furnish to the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Notes, prospective investors, broker-dealers and securities analysts,
upon their request, any information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act so long
as the Notes are not freely transferable under the Securities Act.

 

(g)           Delivery
of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such
shall not constitute actual or constructive knowledge or notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information
contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled
to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or
otherwise, the Company’s or any other Person’s compliance with any of the covenants under this Indenture, to determine whether
such reports, information or documents are filed with the SEC or made publicly available on a website, to examine such reports, information,
documents and other reports to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, to ascertain the correctness or otherwise of
the information or the statements contained therein or to participate in any conference calls.

 

Section 4.04      Compliance
Certificate.

 

(a)           The
Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year ending after the date of this Indenture, an Officers’
Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made
under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled
its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his
or her knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and are
not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or
Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action
the Company is taking or propose to take with respect thereto).

 

(b)           So
long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer of the Company becoming
aware of any Default or Event of Default, a written statement specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company
is taking or propose to take with respect thereto.

 

    66 

     

    

 

Section 4.05      Taxes.

 

The
Company will pay, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental
levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse
in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

 

Section 4.06      Stay,
Extension and Usury Laws.

 

The
Company and each of the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead,
or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any
time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and each of the Guarantors
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will
not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and
permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”),

 

    67

of the Company for such period.

and distributions to dissenting stockholders of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to applicable law, pursuant to or in
connection with a consolidation, amalgamation, reorganization, merger or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company
or any Restricted Subsidiary that complies with the terms of this Indenture.

 

The
amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment (or, in the case
of a dividend or distribution, on the date of declaration) of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. For purposes of determining compliance
with the foregoing covenant, in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted
Payments described in Section 4.07(b)(1) through (12), or is permitted pursuant to Section 4.07(a), the Company will
be permitted to classify (or later classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such Restricted Payment or other
such transaction (or portion thereof) on the date made or later reclassify such Restricted Payment or other such transaction (or portion
thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.07.

 

If
any Person in which an Investment is made, which Investment constitutes a Restricted Payment when made, thereafter becomes a Restricted
Subsidiary in accordance with this Indenture, all such Investments previously made in such Person shall be Permitted Investments under
clause (3) of the definition thereof, and for the avoidance of doubt, all such Investments shall no longer be counted as
Restricted Payments for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments pursuant to Section 4.07(a)(4)(C)(iii),
in each case, to the extent such Investments would otherwise be so counted.

Section 4.08       Dividend
and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

 

(a)           The
Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become
effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

 

(1)           pay
dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect
to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries; provided that the priority that any series of Preferred Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary has in receiving dividends,
distributions or liquidating distributions before dividends, distributions or liquidating distributions are paid in respect of common
stock of such Restricted Subsidiary shall not constitute a restriction on the ability to make dividends or distributions on Capital Stock
for purposes of this Section 4.08;

 

(2)           make
loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances
made to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to other Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

 

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

 

(b)           The
restrictions in Section 4.08(a) hereof will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

 

(1)           agreements
governing Existing Indebtedness as in effect on the date of this Indenture and the Credit Agreement as in effect on the Issue Date and
any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided
that the encumbrances or restrictions contained in the amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings,
replacements or refinancings are not in the good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company materially more restrictive, taken as a
whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the date of this Indenture;

 

    72 

     

    

 

(2)           this
Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees;

 

(3)           agreements
governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.09 hereof and any amendments, restatements,
modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the encumbrances
or restrictions contained therein are in the reasonable good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company, either (a) not materially
more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees with respect to the Notes
or the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date of this Indenture or (b) not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect
on the ability of the Company to make required payments on the Notes;

 

(4)           applicable
law, rule, regulation or order;

 

(5)           any
instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect
at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation
of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other
than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions,
supplements, increases, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided, that the encumbrances and restrictions in
any such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements, increases, refundings, replacements or refinancings
are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company, no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those in effect
on the date of the acquisition; provided further, that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms
of this Indenture to be incurred;

 

(6)           customary
non-assignment provisions in Hydrocarbon purchase and sale or exchange agreements or similar operational agreements or in licenses, easements
or leases, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of business;

money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Finance Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on
the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of Section 4.08(a);

 

(8)           any
agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending
its sale or other disposition;

 

(9)           Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness
are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an Officer of the Company, not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those
contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

 

(10)         Liens
permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 4.12 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject
to such Liens;

 

    73 

     

    

 

(11)         provisions
limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements,
stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a Restricted Investment) entered
into with the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject
of such agreements;

 

(12)         encumbrances
or restrictions applicable only to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Domestic Subsidiary;

encumbrances and restrictions contained in agreements of the types described in the definition of Permitted Business Investments;

 

(15)         agreements
governing Hedging Obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business;

 

(16)         any
encumbrance or restriction with respect to an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to or by reason of an agreement that the Unrestricted
Subsidiary is a party to or entered into before the date on which such Unrestricted Subsidiary became a Restricted Subsidiary; provided
that such agreement was not entered into in anticipation of the Unrestricted Subsidiary becoming a Restricted Subsidiary and any
such encumbrance or restriction does not extend to any assets or property of the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary other than
the assets and property of such Unrestricted Subsidiary;

 

(17)         customary
provisions contained in leases, sub-leases, licenses, sub-licenses, Equity Interests or similar agreements, including with respect to
intellectual property and other agreements;

 

(18)         restrictions
or conditions contained in any trading, netting, operating, construction, service, supply, purchase, sale or other agreement to which
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party entered into in the ordinary course of business or consistent with industry practice;
provided that such agreement prohibits the encumbrance of solely the property or assets of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary
that are subject to such agreement, the payment rights arising thereunder or the proceeds thereof and does not extend to any other asset
or property of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary or the assets or property of any other Restricted Subsidiary;

 

(19)         customary
provisions restricting subletting or assignment of any lease governing a leasehold interest of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;

In

restriction, an encumbrance or restriction on a specified asset or property or group or type of assets or property may also apply to
all improvements, additions, repairs, attachments or accessions thereto, assets and property affixed or appurtenant thereto, parts, replacements
and substitutions therefor, and all products and proceeds thereof, including dividends, distributions, interest and increases in respect
thereof.

Section 4.09       Incurrence
of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.

 

(a)           The
Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, Guarantee
or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”)
any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to issue any Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Preferred
Stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial
statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock
or such Preferred Stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.00 to 1.00, determined on a pro forma basis (including
a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock
or the Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

 

(b)           Section 4.09(a) will
not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness or issuances of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable
(collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

 

(1)           the
incurrence by the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries, of Indebtedness and letters of credit under Credit Facilities in an aggregate
principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal
amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greatest
of (i) $1.0 billion, (ii) the Borrowing Base in effect under the Credit Agreement at such time, and (iii) 32.5% of
the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined on the date of such incurrence;

 

(2)           the
incurrence by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness;

 

(3)           the
incurrence by the Company and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes to be issued on the date of this Indenture and
the related Note Guarantees;

 

    75 

     

    

 

(4)           the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Finance Lease Obligations, mortgage financings
or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or other acquisition
cost or cost of design, construction, installation or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness
incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not
to exceed the greater of (i) $75.0 million and (ii) 3.5% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets
determined as of the date of such incurrence or issuance;

 

(5)           the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds
of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness)
of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Disqualified Stock of the Company, in each case that was permitted by this
Indenture to be incurred under Section 4.09(a) or clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), or (14) of this Section 4.09(b);

 

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

 

(A)          if
the Company or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not the Company or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness (excluding
any Indebtedness in respect of accounts payable incurred in connection with goods and services rendered in the ordinary course of business
or consistent with past practice (and not in connection with the borrowing of money)) must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to
the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or the Note Guarantee,
in the case of a Guarantor; and

 

(B)           (i) any
subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not
either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness
by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

 

(7)           the
issuance by any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries to the Company or to any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Preferred

subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Preferred Stock being held by a Person other than the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; and

 

(B)           any
sale or other transfer of any such Preferred Stock to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company,
will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such Preferred Stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted
by this clause (7);

 

    76 

     

    

 

(8)           the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations;

 

(9)           the
Guarantee by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
to the extent that the guaranteed Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09; provided
that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the Guarantee must be subordinated
or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed;

 

(10)         the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of self-insurance obligations or bid, plugging
and abandonment, appeal, reimbursement, performance, surety and similar bonds and completion guarantees provided by the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business or as required by requirements of law or governmental authorities and any Guarantees
or letters of credit functioning as or supporting any of the foregoing bonds or obligations and workers’ compensation claims in
the ordinary course of business or as required by requirements of law or governmental authorities;

 

(11)         the

within ten Business Days;

 

(12)         the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of in-kind obligations relating to net oil or natural gas balancing positions
arising in the ordinary course of business;

 

(13)         any
obligation arising from agreements of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company providing for indemnification, adjustment
of purchase price, earn outs, or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition or acquisition
of any business, assets or Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary in a transaction permitted by this Indenture; provided that
such obligation is not reflected as a liability on the face of the balance sheet of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;

 

(14)         any
Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness;

 

(15)         the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in the ordinary course of business consisting of obligations
owed to insurance providers or the financing of insurance premiums;

 

(16)         the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness or the issuance by the Company of any Disqualified

Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Stock issued
pursuant to this clause (16), not to exceed the greater of (i) $100.0 million and (ii) 5.0% of the Company’s
Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets determined as of the date of such incurrence or issuance;

 

    77

and services purchased in the ordinary course of business or consistent with industry practice;

 

(18)         the

of business; and (b) the incurrence of any guarantee by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness or other obligations
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary so long as the incurrence of such Indebtedness or other obligation incurred by the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary is permitted under the terms of this Indenture.

 

For
purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more
than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (20) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant
to Section 4.09(a), the Company will be permitted to divide, classify and reclassify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its
incurrence, or later redivide or reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 4.09.
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding on or prior to the Issue Date will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such
date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

 

The
accrual of interest or Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock dividends or distributions, the accretion or amortization of original issue
discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification
of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends or distributions
on Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional securities of the same class of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock
will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09;
provided that the amount thereof shall be included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued to the extent required by the definition
of such term.

 

    78 

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(c)           in
respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

 

(1)           the
Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

 

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

 

For
purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness or issuance of Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness, liquidation preference of Disqualified Stock or
amount of Preferred Stock denominated in a foreign currency will be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect
on the date such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock was incurred or issued (or, in the case of revolving credit debt,
the date such Indebtedness was first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent)); provided
that if such Indebtedness is incurred or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued to refinance other Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated
restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock does not exceed (1) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, the liquidation preference
of such Disqualified Stock or the amount of such Preferred Stock, as applicable, being refinanced, extended, replaced, refunded, renewed
or defeased, plus (2) any accrued and unpaid interest on the Indebtedness, any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock
and any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Disqualified Stock being so refinanced, extended, replaced, refunded, renewed or defeased,
plus (3) the amount of any tender premium or penalty or premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument or documents
governing such refinanced Indebtedness, Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock and any defeasance costs and any fees and expenses (including
original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Indebtedness, Preferred Stock
or Disqualified Stock or the extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance of such refinanced Indebtedness, Preferred
Stock or Disqualified Stock.

 

The
principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued to refinance other Indebtedness, Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock, if incurred or issued in a different currency from the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock,
as applicable, being refinanced, will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective
Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. The principal amount
of any non-interest bearing Indebtedness or other discount security constituting Indebtedness at any date will be the principal amount
thereof that would be shown on a balance sheet of the Company dated such date prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

    79 

     

    

 

If
any Indebtedness is incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued, in reliance on a basket measured by reference to a
percentage of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets, and any refinancing thereof would cause the percentage of Adjusted Consolidated
Net Tangible Assets to be exceeded if calculated based on the Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets on the date of such refinancing,
such percentage of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets will not be deemed to be exceeded to the extent the principal amount of
such newly incurred Indebtedness, the liquidation preference of such newly issued Disqualified Stock or the amount of such newly issued
Preferred Stock does not exceed the sum of (i) the principal amount of such Indebtedness, the liquidation preference of such Disqualified
Stock or the amount of such Preferred Stock being refinanced, extended, replaced, refunded, renewed or defeased, (ii) any accrued
and unpaid interest on the Indebtedness, any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock and any accrued and unpaid dividends
on the Disqualified Stock being so refinanced, extended, replaced, refunded, renewed or defeased and (iii) the amount of any tender
premium or penalty or premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument or documents governing such refinanced Indebtedness,
Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock and any defeasance costs and any fees and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront
fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Indebtedness, Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock or the
extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance of such refinanced Indebtedness, Preferred Stock or Disqualified
Stock.

 

Section 4.10       Asset
Sales.

 

The
Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

 

(a)            the
Company (or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by any Person assuming
responsibility for, any liability, contingent or otherwise, in connection with such Asset Sale) at the time of the Asset Sale at least
equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or
Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

 

(b)           at
least 75% of the aggregate consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and all other Asset Sales

of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

 

(1)           any
liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto or,
if incurred or accrued subsequent to the date of such balance sheet, such liabilities that would have been reflected on the Company’s
or a Restricted Subsidiary’s consolidated balance sheet or in the notes thereto if such incurrence or accrual had taken place on
or prior to the date of such balance sheet, as determined in good faith by the Company) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other
than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are canceled,
terminated or assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation, indemnity or other agreement that releases the Company
or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary against further liability;

 

    80 

     

    

 

(2)           with
respect to any Asset Sale of oil and natural gas properties by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary where the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary retains an interest in such property, the costs and expenses of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary related to the exploration,
development, completion or production of such properties and activities related thereto which the transferee (or an Affiliate thereof)
agrees to pay;

 

(3)           any
securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are, within 180
days of the Asset Sale, converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash
or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion;

 

(4)           any
Capital Stock or assets of the kind referred to in clause (2) or (4) of Section 4.10(c); and

Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market
Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (5), not to exceed an amount
equal to 5.0% of the Company’s Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (determined at the time of receipt of such Designated
Non-cash Consideration), with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received
and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value.

 

(c)           Within
365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (as may be extended pursuant to the immediately succeeding paragraph),
the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply such Net Proceeds at its option to any combination of the following:

 

(1)           to
repay, repurchase or redeem any Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, other than (i) Indebtedness
of the Company or a Guarantor that is subordinated to the Notes or the Note Guarantees, or (ii) Indebtedness owed to an Affiliate
of the Company;

 

(2)           to
acquire all or substantially all of the assets, or any Capital Stock, of one or more other Persons primarily engaged in the Oil and Gas
Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

 

(3)           to
make capital expenditures in respect of the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiaries’ Oil and Gas Business; or

 

(4)           to
acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in the Oil and Gas Business.

 

    81 

     

    

 

The
requirement of clause (2), (3) or (4) of this Section 4.10(c) shall be deemed to be satisfied if a bona
fide binding contract committing to make the investment, acquisition or expenditure referred to therein is entered into by the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with a Person other than an Affiliate of the Company within the time period specified in the preceding
paragraph and such Net Proceeds are subsequently applied in accordance with such contract within 180 days following the date such agreement
is entered into.

 

Pending
the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that
is not prohibited by this Indenture.

 

Any
Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 4.10(c) will constitute “Excess
Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, within five days thereof, the Company will make
an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari
passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Section 4.10 with respect to offers to purchase,
prepay or redeem such Indebtedness with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase, prepay or redeem, on a pro rata basis (based
on the principal amount of Notes and pari passu Indebtedness or, in the case of pari passu Indebtedness issued with significant
original issue discount, based on the accreted value thereof tendered), the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari
passu Indebtedness (plus all accrued interest on the Indebtedness and the amount of all fees and expenses, including premiums, incurred
in connection therewith) that may be purchased, prepaid or redeemed out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer
will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased (or the lesser amount
required under the agreements governing such other pari passu Indebtedness), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but
excluding, the date of purchase, prepayment or redemption, subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date
to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation
of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited
by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds
allocated to the purchase of Notes, the Trustee will select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (except that any Notes
represented by a Note in global form will be selected by such method as DTC or its nominee or successor may require or, where such nominee
or successor is the Trustee, a method that most nearly approximates pro rata selection as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate
unless otherwise required by law), based on the amounts tendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so
that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, will be purchased). Upon completion
of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with
respect to Excess Proceeds by making an Asset Sale Offer prior to the expiration of the application period referred to in this Section 4.10(c) or
with respect to Excess Proceeds of $50.0 million or less.

 

    82 

     

    

 

The
Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder
to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer.
To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10,
the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under
Section 3.09 or this Section 4.10 by virtue of such compliance.

 

Section 4.11      Transactions
with Affiliates.

 

(a)           The
Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction,
contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company involving aggregate
consideration in any single transaction or series of related transactions in excess of $10.0 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”),
unless:

 

(1)           the
Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would
have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person or, if in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate
Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point
of view; and

 

(2)           the
Company delivers to the Trustee:

 

(A)           with
respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration more than $25.0 million,
an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions complies with this
Section 4.11; and

 

(B)           with
respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0
million, a Board Resolution of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction or
series of related Affiliate Transactions complies with this Section 4.11 and that such Affiliate Transaction or series of related
Affiliate Transactions has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company, if any.

 

(b)           The
following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.11(a) hereof:

 

(1)           any
employment or consulting agreement, employee benefit plan, officer or director indemnification, compensation or severance agreement or
any similar arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent of the Company
in the ordinary course of business and payments pursuant thereto;

 

    83

transaction);

 

(3)           transactions
with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company) that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns,
directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

 

(4)           payment
of reasonable and customary fees and reimbursements of expenses (pursuant to indemnity arrangements or otherwise) of officers, directors,

(5)           any

effected in accordance with the terms of the agreements of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary described or otherwise included in
the Company’s filings with the SEC that are in effect on the date of this Indenture, and any amendment or replacement of any of
such agreements so long as such amendment or replacement agreement is not materially less advantageous to the Company, taken as a whole,
than the agreement so amended or replaced;

 

(8)           loans
or advances to or reimbursements of expenses incurred by employees for moving, entertainment and travel expenses and similar expenditures
in the ordinary course of business;

 

(9)           transactions
between the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any other Person, a director of which is also on the Board of Directors
of the Company or any direct or indirect parent company of the Company, and such common director is the sole cause for such other Person
to be deemed an Affiliate of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that such director abstains
from voting as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company or any direct or indirect parent company of the Company, as the case
may be, on any transaction with such other Person;

 

(10)         in
the case of contracts for exploring for, producing, marketing, storing, gathering, transporting or otherwise handling Hydrocarbons, or
activities or services reasonably related or ancillary thereto, or other operational contracts, any such contracts entered into in the
ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party, in
either case in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors of the Company or the senior management thereof;

 

    84 

     

    

 

(11)         payments

are made or offered to holders of such debt securities or Indebtedness held by Persons other than Affiliates;

 

(12)         any
transaction in which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an
accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary from a financial point of view or that such transaction meets the requirements of Section 4.11(a)(1);

 

(13)         transactions
with customers, clients, suppliers, contractors, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services (other than an
Unrestricted Subsidiary), or transactions otherwise relating to the purchase or sale of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary
course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are, in the aggregate (taking into account all
the costs and benefits associated with such transactions), not materially less favorable to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries
than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person,
as determined in good faith by the Company, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time
from an unaffiliated party;

 

(14)         any
lease (other than any lease of Oil and Gas Properties) entered into between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, as lessee, and

Section 4.12       Liens.

 

The
Company will not and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist
or become effective any Lien (an “Initial Lien”) of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon
any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless the Notes or any Note Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary,
as applicable, are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the Indebtedness so secured until such time as such Indebtedness is no
longer secured by a Lien. Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes pursuant to this paragraph 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. In the event that an Initial Lien is or becomes a Permitted Lien, the Company may, at its option and without the consent of any
Holder, elect to release and discharge any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to this Section 4.12 in respect
of such Initial Lien.

 

    85 

     

    

 

 

Section 4.13     [Reserved].

 

Section 4.14     Organizational
Existence.

 

Subject to Article 5
and Section 10.04 hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and
effect:

 

(a)            its
corporate or other existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in accordance
with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary;
and

 

(b)            the
rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence
of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct
of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material
respect to the Holders of the Notes.

 

Section 4.15     Offer
to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

 

(a)            Upon
the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder
of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes
at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), subject
to the rights of Holders of such Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the
 “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each
Holder of Notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating:

 

(1)            that
the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.15 and that all Notes tendered will be accepted for payment;

 

(2)            the
purchase price and the expiration date of the Change of Control Offer, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days
from the date such notice is sent;

 

(3)            that
any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest;

 

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

 

    86 

     

    

 

(5)            that
Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the
form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” attached to the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to
the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change
of Control Payment Date;

 

(6)            that
Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the second
Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, electronic image scan, facsimile transmission or letter setting
forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his
election to have the Notes purchased; and

 

(7)            that
Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of
the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof.

 

The Company will comply with
the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those
laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent
that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.15, the Company will comply
with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.15
by virtue of such compliance.

 

(b)            Promptly
following the expiration of the Change of Control Offer, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment all Notes or portions
of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. Promptly after such acceptance, the Company will, on the Change of
Control Payment Date:

 

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

 

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

 

The Paying Agent will promptly
deliver (but in any case not later than five days after the Change of Control Payment Date) to each Holder of Notes properly tendered
the Change of Control Payment for such Notes (or, if all the Notes are then in global form, it will make such payment through the facilities
of DTC), and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order in accordance with Section 2.02,
the Trustee, upon the written request of the Company, will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry)
to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any. The Company will announce
to the Holders of the Notes the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment
Date.

 

    87 

     

    

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15, the Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change
of Control if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the time and otherwise in compliance with the
requirements set forth in this Section 4.15 and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control
Offer, (2) notice of redemption of all outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, unless and until
there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price, or (3) in connection with or in contemplation of any Change of
Control, the Company has made an offer to purchase (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a
cash price equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all Notes properly tendered in accordance with the
terms of the Alternate Offer.

 

(d)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, a Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control,
conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time
the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer is made. The settlement date of any such Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer made
in advance of a Change of Control may be changed to conform to the actual closing date of such Change of Control; provided that
such settlement date is not earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date the Change of Control Offer notice is sent as described
in Section 4.15(a).

 

(e)            In
the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes accept a Change of Control
Offer or Alternate Offer and the Company (or a third party making the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer in lieu of the Company
as described in paragraph (c) above) purchases all of the Notes held by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon
not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change
of Control Offer or Alternate Offer described above, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a
redemption price equal to the applicable Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment,
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders
on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date).

 

Section 4.16     Additional
Note Guarantees.

 

If any Restricted Subsidiary
(including any acquired or newly created Restricted Subsidiary) Guarantees any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or capital markets
debt securities incurred or issued by the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary or otherwise creates, incurs, issues, assumes or
becomes directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or capital
markets debt securities, in each case, other, than the Notes, then, in either case, such Restricted Subsidiary will become a Guarantor
of the Notes by executing a supplemental indenture in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto and delivering an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee within 30 days after the date that Restricted Subsidiary was acquired or created
or on which it Guaranteed or otherwise created, incurred, issued, assumed or became directly or indirectly liable with respect to such
Indebtedness.

 

    88 

     

    

 

Section 4.17     Designation
of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

 

The Company may designate
any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments
owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be
either an Investment made as of the time of the designation that will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 4.07
hereof or represent a Permitted Investment under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the
Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise
meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

 

Any designation of a Subsidiary
of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a Board
Resolution giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding
conditions and was permitted by Section 4.07 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding
requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture
and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and,
if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09 hereof, the Company will be in default
of such covenant.

 

The Board of Directors of
the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that
such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness
of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09
hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and
(2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

 

Section 4.18     Covenant
Termination.

 

If at any time following
the Issue Date (a) the Notes obtain at least two of any of the following three ratings: (i) Baa3 or better by Moody’s,
(ii) BBB- or better by S&P and (iii) BBB- or better from Fitch (or, if any of such entities ceases to rate the Notes
for reasons outside of the control of the Company, the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized
statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a
replacement agency) and (b) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture, then upon
delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate certifying to such events, Sections 4.07, 4.08, 4.09,
4.10, 4.11, 4.17 and 5.01(a)(4) of this Indenture will be terminated and the limitations in such covenants will cease to apply
and no Default or Event of Default shall result from any failure to comply with any of the provisions of such Sections. The Trustee shall
not have any duty to (a) monitor the ratings of the Notes, (b) determine whether a termination has occurred, (c) notify
Holders of any of the foregoing or (d) determine the consequences thereof, but may provide a copy of such Officers’ Certificate
to any Holder upon request.

Upon any consolidation or
merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets
of the Company in accordance with Section 5.01 in which the Company is not the surviving entity, the successor Person formed by
such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other
disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment,
transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Company” shall refer
instead to the successor Person and not to the predecessor Company), and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this
Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the predecessor Company herein, and thereafter (except in
the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties or assets), the predecessor Company will be relieved
of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Notes and, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel, the Trustee shall enter into a supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such successor and such
discharge and relief of such predecessor Company.

(d)            failure
by the Company for 180 days after notice (1) to the Company by the Trustee or (2) to the Company and the Trustee by Holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with Section 4.03 hereof;

 

    91 

     

    

 

(e)            failure
by the Company for 60 days after notice (1) to the Company by the Trustee or (2) to the Company and the Trustee by Holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with any of its other agreements in this Indenture;

 

(f)            default
under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for
money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of this Indenture, if that
default:

 

(1)            is
caused by a failure to pay principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the
grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or

 

(2)            results
in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness,
together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which
has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more; provided, however, that if, prior to any acceleration of the
Notes, (i) any such Payment Default is cured or waived, (ii) any such acceleration is rescinded, or (iii) such Indebtedness
is repaid during the 30 Business Day period commencing upon the end of any applicable grace period for such Payment Default or the occurrence
of such acceleration, as the case may be, any Default or Event of Default (but not any acceleration of the Notes) caused by such Payment
Default or acceleration shall be automatically rescinded, so long as such rescission does not conflict with any judgment, decree or applicable
law;

 

(g)            failure
by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating

(5)            announces
publicly that it generally is not paying its debts as they become due;

 

    92 

     

    

 

(i)            a
court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

 

(1)            is
for relief against the Company or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of
Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

 

(2)            appoints
a custodian of the Company or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted
Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property
of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the
Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or

 

(3)            orders
the liquidation of the Company or any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of
Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

 

and in each case the order or decree remains
unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; and

 

(j)            except
as permitted by this Indenture, any Note Guarantee is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any
reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, denies or disaffirms its obligations
under its Note Guarantee.

 

Section 6.02     Acceleration.

 

In the case of an Event of
Default specified in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary
of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together, would constitute
a Significant Subsidiary, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes will become due and payable
immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (with a copy to the Trustee) may declare the
principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. However, a Default
under clauses (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of Section 6.01 will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or
the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes notify the Company of the Default and, with respect to clauses
(d), (e) or (g) of Section 6.01, the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clauses (d), (e) or
(g) of Section 6.01 after receipt of such notice; provided that a notice of Default may not be given with respect
to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Holders, more than two years prior to such notice of Default.

 

    93 

     

    

 

The Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all of the Holders of
all the Notes, rescind an acceleration and its consequences hereunder, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree
and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on the Notes that
has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived.

 

Any notice of Default, notice
of acceleration or instruction to the Trustee to provide a notice of Default, notice of acceleration or take any other action (a “Noteholder
Direction”) provided by any one or more Holders (each a “Directing Holder”) must be accompanied by a written
representation from each such Holder delivered to the Company and the Trustee that such Holder is not (or, in the case such Holder is
DTC or its nominee, that such Holder is being instructed solely by Beneficial Owners that are not) Net Short (a “Position Representation”),
which representation, in the case of a Noteholder Direction relating to the delivery of a notice of Default (a “Default Direction”)
shall be deemed a continuing representation until the resulting Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist or the Notes are
accelerated. In addition, each Directing Holder is deemed, at the time of providing a Noteholder Direction, to covenant to provide the
Company with such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such Noteholder’s
Position Representation within five Business Days of request therefor (a “Verification Covenant”). The Trustee shall
have no duty whatsoever to provide this information to the Company or to obtain this information for the Company. In any case in which
the Holder is DTC or its nominee, any Position Representation or Verification Covenant required hereunder shall be provided by the Beneficial
Owner of the Notes in lieu of DTC or its nominee and DTC shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Position Representation and Verification
Covenant in delivering its direction to the Trustee.

 

If, following the delivery
of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis
to believe a Directing Holder was, at any relevant time, in breach of its Position Representation and provides to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate stating that the Company has initiated litigation in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that such
Directing Holder was, at such time, in breach of its Position Representation, and seeking to invalidate any Default, Event of Default
or acceleration (or notice thereof) that resulted from the applicable Noteholder Direction, the cure period with respect to such Default
shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to such Default or Event of Default shall be automatically reinstituted
and any remedy stayed pending a final and non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If, following
the delivery of a Noteholder Direction, but prior to acceleration of the Notes, the Company provides to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate stating that a Directing Holder failed to satisfy its Verification Covenant, the cure period with respect to such Default
shall be automatically stayed and the cure period with respect to any Default or Event of Default that resulted from the applicable Noteholder
Direction shall be automatically reinstituted and any remedy stayed pending satisfaction of such Verification Covenant. Any breach of
the Position Representation shall result in such Holder’s participation in such Noteholder Direction being disregarded; and, if,
without the participation of such Holder, the percentage of Notes held by the remaining Holders that provided such Noteholder Direction
would have been insufficient to validly provide such Noteholder Direction, such Noteholder Direction shall be void ab initio, with the
effect that such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed never to have occurred, acceleration voided and the Trustee shall be deemed
not to have received such Noteholder Direction or any notice of such Default or Event of Default; provided, however, this shall not invalidate
any indemnity or security provided by the Directing Holders to the Trustee, which obligations shall continue to survive.

 

    94 

     

    

 

Notwithstanding anything
in the preceding two paragraphs to the contrary, any Noteholder Direction delivered to the Trustee during the pendency of an Event of
Default specified in clauses (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Section 6.01 hereof, with respect to the Company, any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that, taken together,
would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, shall not require compliance with the foregoing paragraphs.

 

For the avoidance of doubt,
the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Noteholder Direction delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture, shall
have no duty to inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any Position Representation, enforce compliance with any Verification Covenant,
verify any statements in any Officers’ Certificate delivered to it, or otherwise make calculations, investigations or determinations
with respect to Derivative Instruments, Net Shorts, Long Derivative Instruments, Short Derivative Instruments or otherwise. With their
acquisition of the Notes, each Holder and subsequent purchaser of the Notes consents to the delivery of its Position Representation by
the Trustee to the Company in accordance with this Section 6.02. The Company and each Holder and subsequent purchaser of the Notes
(i) waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, (ii) agrees not to commence any legal proceeding against the Trustee
in respect of, and (iii) acknowledges that the Trustee will not be liable, in each case with respect to any action that the Trustee
takes in accordance with this Section 6.02 or arising out of or in connection with following instructions or taking actions in
accordance with a Noteholder Direction. In connection with the requisite percentages required under this Section 6.02, the Trustee
shall treat all outstanding Notes equally irrespective of any Position Representation in determining whether the requisite percentage
has been obtained with respect to the initial delivery of the Noteholder Direction. The Company hereby confirms that any and all other
actions that the Trustee takes or omits to take under this Section 6.02 and all fees, costs expenses of the Trustee and its agents
and counsel arising hereunder and in connection herewith shall be covered by the Company’s indemnifications under Section 7.07.

 

Section 6.03     Other
Remedies.

 

If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, and is known to the Trustee (as provided in Section 7.02(g)), the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to
collect the payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision
of the Notes or this Indenture.

 

The Trustee may maintain
a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the
Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy
or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default, other than to the extent set forth in Section 6.02. All remedies
are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

 

    95 

     

    

 

Section 6.04     Waiver
of Past Defaults.

 

The Holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of
the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default
in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase);
provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind
an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver,
such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of
this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Section 6.05     Control
by Majority.

 

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

 

Section 6.06     Limitation
on Suits.

 

No Holder of a Note may pursue
any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

 

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

 

(b)            Holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy;

 

(c)            such
Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss,
liability or expense;

 

(d)            the
Trustee does not comply with such request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

 

(e)            during
such 60-day period, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Trustee a written
direction inconsistent with such request.

 

A Holder of a Note may not
use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a
Note (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such uses are unduly prejudicial
to such Holders).

 

    96 

     

    

 

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 of, premium, if any, on, and interest,
if any, on, the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment
on or after such respective dates, shall not be amended or waived in a manner adverse to such Holder without the consent of such Holder.

 

Section 6.08     Collection
Suit by Trustee.

 

If an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.01(a) or (b) 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, premium, if any, on, and interest,
if any, 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 7.07 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 7.07 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 of Notes any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder of Notes, or to authorize the Trustee to vote
in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

 

    97 

     

    

 

Section 6.10     Priorities.

 

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

 

First:
to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 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 the Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest,
if any, 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 the Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10.

 

Section 6.11     Undertaking
for Costs.

 

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

TRUSTEE

 

Section 7.01     Duties
of Trustee.

 

(a)            If
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture,
and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
of such person’s own affairs.

 

(b)            Except
during the continuance of an Event of Default:

 

(1)            the
duties of the Trustee will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and the Trustee need perform only those duties
that are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
against the Trustee; and

 

(2)            in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements
and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements
of this Indenture. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provisions hereof are specifically required
to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee will examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the
requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

 

    98 

     

    

 

(c)            The
Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act, or its own
willful misconduct, except that:

 

(1)            this
paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this Section 7.01;

or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a),
(b), and (c) of this Section 7.01.

 

(e)            No
provision of this Indenture will require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee will be under

Section 7.02     Rights
of Trustee.

paper or any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate
any fact or matter stated in the document.

 

(b)            Before
the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or both. The Trustee

no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential loss or damage of any
kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood
or such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 

(i)            The
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified,
are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person
employed to act hereunder.

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 (as
defined in the TIA) after a Default has occurred and is continuing it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days or resign. Any Agent
may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 hereof.

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 of the Trustee, the Trustee will send electronically

is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal
of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, 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     [Reserved].

 

Section 7.07     Compensation
and Indemnity.

 

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

 

(b)            The
Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will indemnify the Trustee and its directors, officers, employees and agents against
any and all losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by them (including taxes (other than taxes based upon the income of the Trustee)
and documented attorneys’ and agents’ fees and expenses and court costs) arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
or administration of the Trustee’s duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against
the Company and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company,
the Guarantors, any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder (including actions taken or omitted to be taken pursuant to Section 6.02), except to the extent any such loss, liability
or expense is attributable to its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final nonappealable order of a court of
competent jurisdiction. The Trustee will notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee
to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Company or such Guarantor
will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company will pay the
documented fees and expenses of such counsel. None of the Company or any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made without its consent,
which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

 

(c)            The
obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture
and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

 

(d)            To
secure the Company’s and the Guarantors’ payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee will 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 of, premium, if any,
on, and interest, if any, on, particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

 

    101 

     

    

 

(e)            When
the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or (i) 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 any Bankruptcy Law.

 

Section 7.08     Replacement
of Trustee.

 

(a)            A
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee will become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s
acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08.

 

(b)            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
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company
in writing not less than 30 days prior to the effective date of such removal. The Company may remove the Trustee if:

 

(1)            the
Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof;

 

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

 

(3)            a
custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or

 

(4)            the
Trustee becomes incapable of acting.

 

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

 

(d)            If
a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee (at the
Company’s expense), the Company, or the Holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 

(e)            If
the Trustee, after written request by any Holder who has been a Holder for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10
hereof, such Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor
Trustee.

 

(f)            A
successor Trustee will deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon, the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee will become effective, and the successor Trustee will have all the rights, powers and duties of the
Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee will mail a notice of its succession to Holders. The retiring Trustee will promptly
transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid
and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.08,
the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 hereof will continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.

 

    102 

     

    

 

Section 7.09     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 Person, the successor Person
without any further act will be the successor Trustee.

 

Section 7.10     Eligibility;
Disqualification.

 

There will 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 $100.0 million as set forth in its most recent published
annual report of condition.

 

Article 8

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

 

Section 8.01     Option
to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

 

The Company may at any time,
at the option of its Board of Directors evidenced by resolutions set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, elect to have either Section 8.02
or 8.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8.

 

Section 8.02     Legal
Defeasance and Discharge.

 

Upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company and each of the Guarantors
will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their
obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees) on the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied
(hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Company and the Guarantors will
be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes (including the Note Guarantees), which
will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 hereof and the other Sections of
this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations under such
Notes, the Note Guarantees and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until otherwise terminated or discharged
hereunder:

 

(a)            the
rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any,
on, such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 8.04 hereof;

 

    103 

     

    

 

(b)            the
Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.06, 2.07, 2.10, 2.11 and 4.02 hereof;

 

(c)            the
rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations
in connection therewith; and

 

(d)            this
Article 8.

 

Subject to compliance with
this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option
under Section 8.03 hereof.

 

Section 8.03     Covenant
Defeasance.

 

Upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, the Company and each of the Guarantors
will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, be released from each of their respective
obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.14, 4.15, 4.16 and
4.17 hereof and clauses (3) and (4) of Section 5.01(a) hereof with respect to the outstanding Notes on
and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”),
and the Notes will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration
or act of Holders of the Notes (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed
 “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes will not be deemed outstanding for accounting
purposes to the extent permitted by GAAP). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes and
Note Guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition
or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission
to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder
of this Indenture and such Notes and Note Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s exercise under
Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (j) hereof will not constitute Events of Default.

 

Section 8.04     Conditions
to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.

 

In order to exercise either
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof:

 

(a)            the
Company must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government
Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of an accounting, appraisal or investment
banking firm of national standing, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the outstanding Notes on the
stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Company must specify whether the Notes
are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date (provided that if such redemption requires
the payment of an Applicable Premium (x) the amount of cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination
thereof, that must be irrevocably deposited will be determined using an assumed Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of such
deposit and (y) the depositor must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited additional money (the “Applicable Premium
Deficit”) in trust on the redemption date as necessary to pay such Applicable Premium as determined on such date (it being
understood that any defeasance shall be subject to the condition subsequent that such Applicable Premium Deficit is in fact paid); provided
any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with
the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption;
provided, further, that the Trustee shall have no liability whatsoever in the event that such Applicable Premium Deficit
is not in fact paid after any defeasance);

 

    104 

     

    

 

(b)            in
the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee confirming that:

 

(1)            the
Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling; or

 

(2)            since
the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and
based thereon such Opinion of Counsel will confirm that, the beneficial owners of the Notes for U.S. Federal income tax purposes will
not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not
occurred;

 

(c)            in
the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Company must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee confirming that the beneficial owners of the Notes for U.S. Federal income tax purposes will not recognize income, gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same
amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

 

(d)            no
Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default
or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit (and any similar concurrent deposit relating
to other Indebtedness), and the granting of Liens to secure such borrowings);

 

(e)            such
Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement
or instrument (other than this Indenture and the agreements governing any other Indebtedness being defeased, discharged or replaced)
to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound;

 

    105 

     

    

 

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

 

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

 

Section 8.05     Deposited
Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

Subject to Section 8.06
hereof, all money and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying
trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof
in respect of the outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes
and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the 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 will pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities
deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee
or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

 

Notwithstanding anything
in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Trustee will 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 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally
recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be
the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(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 8.06     Repayment
to Company.

 

Subject to any applicable
escheat, or abandoned or unclaimed property law, 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, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two
years after such principal, 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) will be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to 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, will thereupon cease.

 

    106

     

    

 

Section 8.07     Reinstatement.

 

If the Trustee or Paying
Agent is unable to apply any U.S. dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof,
as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, then the Company’s and the Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees
will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the
Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be;
provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on,
any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company will be subrogate d to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 

Article 9

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

 

Section 9.01     Without
Consent of Holders of Notes.

 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02
of this Indenture, without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this
Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees:

 

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

 

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

 

(c)            to
provide for the assumption of the Company’s or a Guarantor’s obligations to Holders of the Notes and Note Guarantees in the
case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s or such Guarantor’s properties or
assets, as applicable;

 

(d)            to
make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the
legal rights under this Indenture of any Holder of Notes, including to comply with requirements of the SEC or DTC in order to maintain
the transferability of the Notes pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S;

 

(e)            to
comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

 

(f)            to
conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Note Guarantees to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section
of the Offering Memorandum;

 

(g)            to
provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the limitations set forth in this Indenture as of the date hereof;

 

    107

     

    

 

(h)            to
secure the Notes or the Note Guarantees pursuant to the requirements of Section 4.12 hereof;

 

(i)            to

its Note Guarantee as provided in this Indenture;

 

(j)            to
evidence or provide for the acceptance of appointment under this Indenture of a successor Trustee;

 

(k)            to
amend the provisions of this Indenture relating to the transfer and legending of Notes as permitted by this Indenture, including to facilitate
the issuance and administration of the Notes; or

 

(l)            to
add or modify covenants of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the benefit of Holders, to add additional Defaults or Events
of Default, to make changes that would provide additional rights to the Holders under this Indenture or to surrender any right or power
conferred upon the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary.

 

Section 9.02     With
Consent of Holders of Notes.

 

Except as provided below
in this Section 9.02, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture (including Sections 3.09,
4.10, and 4.15 hereof) and the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained in connection
with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with
any provision of this Indenture or the Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any) voting as a single class (including consents obtained
in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.08 hereof shall determine which
Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. However, without the consent of each Holder
affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting
Holder):

 

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

 

(b)            reduce
the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase
of the Notes (other than provisions under Sections 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15 or the minimum notice required with respect to any redemption
of Notes pursuant to Article 3);

 

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

 

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

 

    108

     

    

 

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

 

(f)            make
any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of the Notes to receive
payments of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on, the Notes (other than as permitted in clause (g) of
this Section 9.02 below);

 

(g)            waive
a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by Section 3.09, 4.10 or 4.15);

 

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

 

(i)            make
any change in the preceding amendment, supplement and waiver provisions.

 

For the avoidance of doubt,
no amendment to, or deletion of any of the covenants in this Indenture or action taken in compliance with the covenants in effect at
the time of such action, shall be deemed to impair or affect any rights of any Holder of Notes to receive payment of principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest, if any, on, the Notes or to institute suit for the enforcement of payment on or with respect to such Holder’s
Notes.

 

It is not necessary for the
consent of the Holders of the Notes under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement
or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

 

After an amendment, supplement
or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company will mail to the Holders of the Notes a notice briefly describing
the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any
way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver.

 

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 amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement
or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder unless it makes a change described in any
of clauses (a) through (i) of the first paragraph of Section 9.02, in which case, the amendment, supplement or
waiver shall bind only each Holder of a Note who has consented to such amendment, supplement or waiver and every subsequent Holder of
a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same indebtedness as the consenting Holder’s Note.

 

    109

     

    

 

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
may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement
or waiver.

 

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

 

Section 9.05     Trustee
to Sign Amendments, etc.

 

The Trustee will sign any
amended or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect
the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall receive
and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04
hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture
is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

 

Section 9.06     Effect
of Supplemental Indentures.

 

Upon the execution of any
amended or supplemental indenture under this Article 9, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such amended
or supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes and every Holder of Notes theretofore or thereafter authenticated
and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby, unless such amended or supplemental indenture makes a change described in any of clauses (a) through
(i) of the first paragraph of Section 9.02, in which case, such amended or supplemental indenture shall bind only each Holder
of a Note who has consented to such amended or supplemental indenture and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that
evidences the same indebtedness as the consenting Holder’s Note.

Section 10.01     Guarantee.

 

(a)            Subject
to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally Guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated

Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

    110

     

    

 

(2)            in
case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in
full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

 

Failing payment when due
of any amount so Guaranteed or any performance so Guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated
to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a Guarantee of payment and not a Guarantee of collection.

 

(b)            The
Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with
respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives
diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any
right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee
will not be discharged except by complete payment of all amounts due under the Notes and this Indenture.

 

(c)            If
any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator
or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or
such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.

 

(d)            Each
Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations Guaranteed
hereby until payment in full of all obligations Guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on
the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations Guaranteed hereby may be
accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations Guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration
of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith
become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution
from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee.

 

    111

     

    

 

Section 10.02     Limitation
on Guarantor Liability.

 

Each Guarantor and, by its
acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor
not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform
Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing
intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited
to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor
that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made
by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the
obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

 

Section 10.03     Execution
and Delivery of Note Guarantee.

 

The Note Guarantee of any
Guarantor shall be evidenced solely by its execution and delivery of this Indenture (or, in the case of any Guarantor that is not party
to this Indenture as of the date hereof, a supplemental indenture) and not by an endorsement on, or attachment to, any Note of any Note
Guarantee or notation thereof. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall be and remain
in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on any Note a notation of such Note Guarantee. The delivery of any Note
by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantees set forth in this Indenture
on behalf of each of the Guarantors.

 

Section 10.04     Guarantors
May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

 

Except as otherwise provided
in Section 10.05 hereof, no Guarantor may consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving
Person) another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:

 

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

 

(b)            either:

 

(1)            subject
to Section 10.05 hereof, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) unconditionally
assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under its Note Guarantee and this Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; or

 

(2)            such
transaction or series of transactions does not violate Section 4.10 hereof.

 

In case of any such consolidation
or merger and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory
in form to the Trustee, of the Note Guarantee of the Guarantor and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions
of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the
same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. All the Note Guarantees relating to Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore
shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
this Indenture as the Note Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all
of such Note Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

 

    112

     

    

 

Except as set forth in Articles 4
and 5 hereof, and notwithstanding clauses (b)(1) and (2) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the
Notes will prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale
or other disposition of the properties or assets of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or another
Guarantor.

 

Section 10.05     Releases.

 

Notwithstanding Section 10.04,
the Note Guarantee of a Guarantor shall automatically be released:

 

(a)            in
connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of that Guarantor, by way of merger,
consolidation, dividend, amalgamation, distribution or otherwise, to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such
transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10
hereof;

 

(b)            in
connection with any sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either
before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale, exchange, transfer
or other disposition does not violate Section 4.10 hereof and such Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company
as a result of the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition;

 

(c)            upon
designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

 

(d)            at
such time as such Guarantor does not Guarantee any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or capital markets debt securities incurred or
issued by the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary and has not created, incurred, issued or assumed or is directly or indirectly
liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to any Indebtedness under a Credit Facility or capital markets debt securities, in each
case, other than the Notes;

 

(e)            upon
the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor in a transaction or series of transactions that does not violate the terms of this Indenture;
or

 

(f)            as
described in Article 9 hereof.

 

In addition, the Note Guarantees
of all Guarantors will be released upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance in accordance with Article 8 hereof or satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture in accordance with Article 11 hereof.

 

Any release pursuant to the
foregoing shall be deemed to occur automatically, without further action by the Trustee or Holders of Notes, upon delivery by the Company
of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the conditions to such release have been satisfied. Any Guarantor
not released from its obligations under its Note Guarantee as provided in this Section 10.05 will remain liable for the full amount
of principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture
as provided in this Article 10.

 

    113

     

    

 

Article 11

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

 

Section 11.01     Satisfaction
and Discharge.

 

This Indenture will be satisfied
and discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder (except as to surviving rights of registration
of transfer or exchange of the Notes and as otherwise specified in this Article 11), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when:

 

(a)            either:

 

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

 

(2)            all
Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable or will become due and payable within
one year by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise and either 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 of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars,
non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment
of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium,
if any, and interest, if any, to the date of Stated Maturity or redemption (provided that if such redemption requires the payment
of any Applicable Premium, (x) the amount of cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof,
that must be irrevocably deposited will be determined using an assumed Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of such deposit and
(y) the depositor must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited the Additional Premium Deficit in trust on the redemption date
as necessary to pay such Applicable Premium as determined by such date; provided any Applicable Premium Deficit shall be set forth
in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee simultaneously with the deposit of such Applicable Premium Deficit that confirms
that such Applicable Premium Deficit shall be applied toward such redemption; provided further that the Trustee shall have no
liability whatsoever in the even that such Applicable Premium Deficit is not in fact paid after any satisfaction and discharge);

 

(b)            the
Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by the Company under this Indenture; and

 

    114

     

    

 

(c)            the
Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at Stated
Maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

 

In addition, the Company
must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction
and discharge have been satisfied.

 

Notwithstanding the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture, if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (2) of clause (a) of
this Section 11.01, the provisions of Sections 11.02 and 8.06 hereof will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01
will be deemed to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 hereof, that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture.

 

Section 11.02     Application
of Trust Money.

 

Subject to the provisions
of Section 8.06 hereof, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.01 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,
premium, if any, interest, if any, for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated
from other funds except to the extent required by law.

 

The Company will pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable Government Securities
deposited pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee
or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.

 

If the Trustee or Paying
Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with Section 11.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding
or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application,
the Company’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though
no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof; provided that if the Company has made any payment of principal
of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, any Notes because of the reinstatement of their obligations, the Company shall be
subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the Trustee
or Paying Agent.

 

Notwithstanding the above,
the Trustee shall pay to the Company from time to time upon its request any money or Government Securities held by the Trustee as provided
in this Section 11.02 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written
certification delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect satisfaction
and discharge under this Article 11.

 

    115

     

    

 

Subject to any applicable
escheat, or abandoned or unclaimed property law, any money or Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or
then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two
years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest 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 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.

respect to any Global Note the Depositary for which is DTC, any consent or other action given, made or taken by an “agent member”

to authorization by, DTC shall be deemed to constitute the “Act” of the Holder of such Global Note, and such Act shall be
deemed to have been delivered to the Company and the Trustee upon the delivery by DTC of an “agent’s message” or other
notice of such consent or other action having been so given, made or taken in accordance with the customary procedures of DTC.

(b)            The
fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution
or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual
signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such witness, notary or officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is by
a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof
of authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same,
may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.

 

(c)            Notwithstanding

as provided in Section 2.03.

 

(d)            If
the Company shall solicit from the Holders of the Notes any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, the Company may, at its option, fix in advance a record date for the determination of the Holders entitled to give, make or take
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do
so. Such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the

record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date (whether or not such Persons were Holders before,
or continue to be Holders after, such record date) shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the
requisite proportion of the then outstanding Notes have given, made or taken such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the then outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such record date; provided
that no such Act by the Holders of record on any record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after such record date.

 

(e)            Subject
to Section 9.03, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Note
shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration or transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon,
whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

 

    121

     

    

 

(f)            Without
limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to give, make or take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may
do so itself with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which
may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

 

Section 12.16     Benefit
of Indenture.

 

Nothing in this Indenture
or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any Registrar and their

of Notices, Etc.

 

Any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that any

Section 12.18     U.S.A.
Patriot Act.

 

The parties hereto acknowledge
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 identities 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 request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot
Act.

 

Section 12.19     Force
Majeure.

 

In no event shall the Trustee
be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly
or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, but not limited to, (i) any act or provision of any present or future law
or regulation or governmental authority, (ii) any act of God, (iii) natural disaster, (iv) war, (v) terrorism,
(vi) civil unrest, (vii) accidents, (viii) labor dispute, (ix) disease, (x) epidemic or pandemic, (xi) quarantine,
(xii) national emergency, (xiii) loss or malfunction of utility or computer software or hardware, (xiv) communications
system failure, (xv) malware or ransomware; (xvi) unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex system or other

[BACK OF NOTE]

 

5.000% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2026

 

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

 

(1)            INTEREST.
Bonanza Creek Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal
amount of this Note at 5.000% per annum. The Company will pay interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15
of each year, beginning April 15, 2022 (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 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.
The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and
premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent
lawful; the Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments
of interest, if any (without regard to any applicable grace period), 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 comprised of twelve 30-day months. If any payment with respect to any principal of, premium, if any, on,
or interest, if any, on any Note (including any payment to be made on any date fixed for redemption or purchase of any Note) is due on
a day which is not a Business Day, then the payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the
same force and effect as if made on such date, and no interest will accrue for the intervening period.

 

(2)            METHOD
OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest), if any, to the Persons who are registered Holders
of Notes at the close of business on the April 1 and October 1 next preceding each 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, if any, and interest, if any, at the office or
agency of the Company maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest, if any, may be made by check
mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately
available funds will be required with respect to principal of, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on, all Global Notes and all
other Notes the Holders of which hold not less than $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of such other Notes in definitive form and
will have provided wire transfer instructions to a U.S. dollar account in the contiguous United States to the Company or the Paying Agent.
Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts.

 

(3)            PAYING
AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent
and Registrar. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries
may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

 

(4)            INDENTURE.
The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of October 13, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among the Company,
the Guarantors party thereto from time to time and the Trustee. 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.
The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be issued thereunder.

 

    A-4

     

    

 

(5)            OPTIONAL
REDEMPTION.

 

(a)            At
any time prior to October 15, 2023, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount
of Notes issued under the Indenture (including any Additional Notes), upon notice as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price
equal to 105.000% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date
of redemption (subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date),
with an amount of cash not greater than the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering, provided that:

 

(A)            at
least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued on the Issue Date (excluding Notes held by the Company and its
Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (unless all such Notes are redeemed substantially

redemption occurs within 180 days after the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

 

(b)            At
any time prior to October 15, 2023, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon notice
as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus the Applicable
Premium as of the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption, subject to the
rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

if any, on the Notes redeemed, to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning
on October 15 of the years indicated below, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest on
the relevant Interest Payment Date:

 

	Year	 	Percentage	 
	2023	 	 	102.500	%
	 	 	 	 	 
	2024	 	 	101.250	%
	 	 	 	 	 
	2025 and thereafter	 	 	100.000	%

the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption
date.

of Control Offer”) to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000
in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to
receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following
any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing
the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture.

 

(b)            If
the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company consummates any Asset Sales, within five days of each date on which the aggregate
amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $50.0 million, the Company may be required to make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and
all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture
with respect to offers to purchase, prepay or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will

the period between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

 

(11)            PERSONS
DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered Holders have rights
under the Indenture.

 

(12)            AMENDMENT,
SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes, or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented
with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes including Additional Notes,
if any, voting as a single class, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the
Notes or the Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes including Additional Notes, if any, voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of Notes, the Indenture, the Notes
or the Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented for certain purposes set forth in the Indenture.

 

(13)            DEFAULTS
AND REMEDIES. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company,
any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that,
taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all outstanding
Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default with respect to the Notes
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may
declare the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders
may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture,
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting
any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. The Trustee may withhold
from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the
payment of principal, premium, if any, on, and interest, if any, on the Notes) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of all
the Holders, rescind an acceleration and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the
payment of principal of, premium, if any, on, or interest, if any, on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase any
Notes). The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually an Officers’ Certificate regarding compliance with the Indenture,
and the Company is required, upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a written statement specifying
such Default or Event of Default.

 

(14)            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.

 

(15)            NO
RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No director, manager, officer, member, employee, incorporator or other owner of Capital Stock of the Company
or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture,
the Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes
by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the
Notes.
