(g)Severability.

“Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio” means, with respect to any Person, at any date, the ratio of (i) Consolidated Total Indebtedness of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date of calculation (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP) less the amount of cash and Cash Equivalents in excess of any Restricted Cash that would be stated on the balance sheet of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries and held by such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date of determination to (ii) EBITDA of such Person for the four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding such date on which such additional Indebtedness is Incurred.
In the event that the Parent or any such Subsidiary Incurs, repays, repurchases or redeems any Indebtedness subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio is being calculated but prior to the event for which the calculation of the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio is made (the “Consolidated Total Net Leverage Calculation Date”), then the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence, repayment, repurchase or redemption of Indebtedness, or such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.
For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and any operational changes, business realignment projects or initiatives, restructurings or reorganizations that the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary has determined to make and/or made during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Calculation Date (each, for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations and other operational changes, business realignment projects or initiatives, restructurings or reorganizations (and the change of any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period.  If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, amalgamation, discontinued operation, operational change, business realignment project or initiative, restructuring or reorganization, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, discontinued operation, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, operational change, business realignment project or initiative, restructuring or reorganization had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.  If since the beginning of such period any Restricted Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.
For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any pro forma event, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer.  Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable good faith determination of the Issuer as set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, to reflect operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable event within 12 months of the date the applicable event is consummated and which are expected to have a continuing impact and are factually supportable.
If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of 12 months).  Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of 

9

interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP.  For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period.  Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate.
For purposes of this definition, any amount in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be converted to U.S. dollars based on the average exchange rate for such currency for the most recent twelve month period immediately prior to the date of determination in a manner consistent with that used in calculating EBITDA for the applicable period.

If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Parent, an Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, amalgamation, discontinued operation, operational change, business realignment project or initiative, restructuring or reorganization, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, discontinued operation, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, operational change, business realignment project or initiative, restructuring or reorganization had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. If since the beginning of such period any Restricted Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, then the First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the First Lien Secured Leverage Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Issuer may designate.
For purposes of this definition, any amount in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be converted to U.S. dollars based on the average exchange rate for such currency for the most recent twelve month period immediately prior to the date of determination in a manner consistent with that used in calculating EBITDA for the applicable period.

With respect to any Additional Notes issued after the Issue Date (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 3.08, 4.06(e), 4.08(c) or Appendix A), there shall be (a) established in or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and (b) (i) set forth or determined in the manner provided in an Officers’ Certificate or (ii) established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of such Additional Notes:

If any of the terms of any Additional Notes are established by action taken pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors, a copy of an appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Issuer and delivered to the First Lien Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate or an indenture supplemental hereto setting forth the terms of the Additional Notes.
The Initial Notes and any Additional Notes may, at the Issuer’s option, be treated as a single class of securities for all purposes under this Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase; provided that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number, if applicable.
SECTION 2.02    Form and Dating.  Provisions relating to the Initial Notes are set forth in Appendix A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  The (i) Initial Notes and the First Lien Trustee’s certificate of authentication and (ii) any Additional Notes (if issued as Transfer Restricted Notes) and the First Lien Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall each be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Indenture.  The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule, agreements to which the Issuers or any Guarantor is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Issuers).  Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that Notes may be issued in denominations of less than $2,000 solely to accommodate book-entry positions that have been created by Depository participants in denominations of less than $2,000.
SECTION 2.03    Execution and Authentication.  The First Lien Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery upon a written order of the Issuers signed by one Officer of each Issuer (an “Authentication Order”) (a) Initial Notes for original issue on the date hereof in an aggregate principal amount of $495,032,000.00 and (b) subject to the terms of this Indenture, Additional Notes in an aggregate principal amount to be determined at the time of issuance and specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or Appendix A, any issuance of Additional Notes after the Issue Date shall be in a principal amount of at least $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
As far as the Issuer is concerned, the Notes (in global or definitive form) will have to be signed pursuant to the articles of association of the Issuer or the resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Issuer.  One Officer shall sign the Notes for each Issuer by manual or facsimile signature.
If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the First Lien Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless.
A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the First Lien Trustee (or an authenticating agent as described immediately below) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Note.  The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been authenticated under this Indenture.
The First Lien Trustee may appoint one or more authenticating agents reasonably acceptable to the Issuers to authenticate the Notes.  Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuers.  Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the First Lien Trustee may do so.  Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the First Lien Trustee includes authentication by such agent.  An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

40

(c)    The Issuers may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA.  The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent.  The Issuers shall notify the First Lien Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent.  If the Issuers fail to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the First Lien Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 7.07.  The Parent or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.
(d)    The Issuers may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the First Lien Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) if applicable, acceptance of an appointment by a successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuers and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the First Lien Trustee or (ii) notification to the First Lien Trustee that the First Lien Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above.  The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Issuers and the First Lien Trustee; provided, however, that the First Lien Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the First Lien Trustee also resigns as First Lien Trustee in accordance with Section 7.08.
SECTION 2.05    Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.  Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of the principal of and interest on any Note, the Issuers shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Parent or a Subsidiary thereof is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such principal and interest when so becoming due.  The Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of holders or the First Lien Trustee all money held by a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, and shall notify the First Lien Trustee of any default by the Issuers in making any such payment.  If the Parent or a Subsidiary thereof acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto.  The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the First Lien Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent.  Upon complying with this Section 2.05, a Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the First Lien Trustee.
SECTION 2.06    Holder Lists.  The First Lien Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of holders.  If the First Lien Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuers shall furnish, or cause the Registrar to furnish, to the First Lien Trustee, in writing at least five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the First Lien Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the First Lien Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of holders.
SECTION 2.07    Transfer and Exchange.  The Notes shall be issued in registered form and shall be transferable only upon the surrender of a Note for registration of transfer and in compliance with Appendix A.  When a Note is presented to the Registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if its requirements (including, among other things, the furnishing of appropriate endorsements and transfer documents) therefor are met.  When Notes are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes of other denominations, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met.  To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, the Issuers shall execute and the First Lien Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request.  The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges payable on transfer that are required by law in connection with any transfer or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.07.  The Issuer shall not be required to make, and the Registrar need not register, transfers or exchanges of any Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or of any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed.

41

Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuers, the Guarantors, the First Lien Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Issuers, the Guarantors, the First Lien Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Any holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall, by acceptance of such beneficial interest, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by (a) the holder of such Global Note (or its agent) or (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, and that ownership of a beneficial interest in such Global Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.
All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.
The First Lien Trustee shall have no 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 Depository participants or beneficial owners of interests 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.
None of the First Lien Trustee, Registrar or Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depository.
Notwithstanding any register held and maintained by the Registrar or any other registrar appointed by the Issuers, the Issuer will keep a register of holders of Notes at its registered office (the “Register”), for the purpose of Luxembourg law.  Ownership in respect of Notes is established by way of registration of the transfer of notes in the Register.  In the case of a conflict between a register of Notes held by an agent of the Issuer and the Register, the Register will be prima facie evidence of ownership for Luxembourg law purposes, in the event of discrepancy between that register and the Register.
SECTION 2.08    Replacement Notes.  If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuers shall issue and the First Lien Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met, such that the holder (a) satisfies the Issuers and the First Lien Trustee within a reasonable time after such holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar does not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Issuers and the First Lien Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”) and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuers and the First Lien Trustee.  Such holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the First Lien Trustee, with respect to the First Lien Trustee, and the Issuers, with respect to the Issuers, to protect the Issuers, the First Lien Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar, as applicable, from any loss or liability that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment.  The Issuers and the First Lien Trustee may charge the holder for their expenses in replacing a Note (including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements in replacing such Note).  In the event any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuers in their discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.
Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuers.
The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes.
SECTION 2.09    Outstanding Notes.  Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the First Lien Trustee except for those canceled by it, those paid pursuant to Section 2.08, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding.  Subject to Section 14.05, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers hold the Note.
If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08 (other than a mutilated Note surrendered for replacement), it ceases to be outstanding unless the First Lien Trustee and the Issuers receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser.  A mutilated Note ceases to be outstanding upon surrender of such Note and replacement thereof pursuant to Section 2.08.

42

If a Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as the case may be, and no Paying Agent is prohibited from paying such money to the holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue.
SECTION 2.10    Cancellation.  The Issuers at any time may deliver Notes to the First Lien Trustee for cancellation.  The Registrar and each Paying Agent shall forward to the First Lien Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment.  The First Lien Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures.  The Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes they have redeemed, paid or delivered to the First Lien Trustee for cancellation.  The First Lien Trustee shall not authenticate Notes in place of canceled Notes other than pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.
SECTION 2.11    Defaulted Interest.  If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, the Issuers shall pay the defaulted interest then borne by the Notes (plus interest on such defaulted interest to the extent lawful) in any lawful manner.  The Issuers may pay the defaulted interest to the Persons who are holders on a subsequent special record date.  The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed any such special record date and payment date to the reasonable satisfaction of the First Lien Trustee and shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed to each affected holder a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.
SECTION 2.12    CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, Etc.
  The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and the First Lien Trustee shall use any such CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to holders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers, either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and that any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.  The Issuers shall promptly advise the First Lien Trustee in writing of any change in any such CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers.
SECTION 2.13    Calculation of Principal Amount of Notes.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount of the Notes at such date of determination.  With respect to any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all the Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such date of determination, of Notes, the holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination, of the Notes then outstanding, in each case, as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, and Section 14.05 of this Indenture.  Any calculation of the Applicable Premium or Additional Amounts made pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be made by the Issuer and delivered to the First Lien Trustee pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate.

ARTICLE III
REDEMPTION
SECTION 3.01    Redemption.  The Notes may be redeemed, in whole or from time to time in part, subject to the conditions and at the redemption prices set forth in Paragraph 5 of the form of Note set forth in Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

The Issuers shall give notice to the First Lien Trustee provided for in this 

43

Section 3.03 at least 15 days but not more than 60 days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the First Lien Trustee) before a redemption date if the redemption is a redemption pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Note.  The Issuers may also include a request in such Officers’ Certificate that the First Lien Trustee give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ name and at their expense and setting forth the form of such notice containing the information required by Section 3.05.  Any such request shall be received in writing by the First Lien Trustee at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the First Lien Trustee) prior to the date on which such notice is to be given.  Any such notice may be canceled if written notice from the Issuers of such cancellation is actually received by the First Lien Trustee on the Business Day immediately prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any holder or otherwise delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository and shall thereby be void and of no effect.  The Issuers shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the First Lien Trustee to select the Notes to be redeemed pursuant to Section 3.04.
SECTION 3.04    Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed.  In the case of any partial redemption of Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the First Lien Trustee on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable or by lot or by such other method as the First Lien Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner that complies with the requirements of the Depository, if applicable); provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.  The First Lien Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption.  The First Lien Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Notes that have denominations larger than $2,000.  Notes and portions of them the First Lien Trustee selects shall be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.  The First Lien Trustee shall notify the Issuers promptly of the Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed.
SECTION 3.05    Notice of Optional Redemption.
(a)    At least 15 but not more than 60 days before a redemption date pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Note, the Issuers shall mail or cause to be mailed by first-class mail, or delivered electronically if held by the Depository, a notice of redemption to each holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the First Lien Trustee), except that redemption notices may be mailed or otherwise delivered more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Notes pursuant to Article VIII.
Any such notice shall identify the Notes including CUSIP numbers to be redeemed and shall state:
(i)    the redemption date;
(ii)    the redemption price and the amount of accrued interest to, but excluding, the redemption date;
(iii)    the name and address of the Paying Agent;
(iv)    that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest;

(vii)    the CUSIP number, ISIN and/or “Common Code” number, if any, printed on the Notes being redeemed; and
(viii)    that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number or ISIN and/or “Common Code” number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.
(b)    At the Issuers’ request, the First Lien Trustee shall deliver the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ name and at the Issuers’ expense.  In such event, the Issuers shall notify the First Lien Trustee of such request at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the First Lien Trustee) prior to the date such notice is to be provided to holders.  

44

Such notice shall be in writing and may be sent to the First Lien Trustee via electronic mail.  Except as set forth in paragraph 5 of the Note, the notice of redemption may not be canceled once delivered to holders of Notes by the First Lien Trustee.
SECTION 3.06    Effect of Notice of Redemption.  Once notice of redemption is mailed or otherwise delivered in accordance with Section 3.05, Notes called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice, except as provided in the final paragraph of paragraph 5 of the Notes.  Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such Notes shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date; provided, however, that if the redemption date is after a regular Record Date and on or prior to the next Interest Payment Date, the accrued interest shall be payable to the holder of the redeemed Notes registered on the relevant Record Date.  Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any holder shall not affect the validity of the notice to any other holder.
SECTION 3.07    Deposit of Redemption Price.  With respect to any Notes, prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Parent or a Subsidiary thereof is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption that have been delivered by the Issuer to the First Lien Trustee for cancellation.  On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Issuers have deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed.
SECTION 3.08    Notes Redeemed in Part.  If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.  A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note.
SECTION 3.09    [Reserved].
SECTION 3.10    Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes.  The Issuers may, at their option, redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes then outstanding, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which shall become due on the applicable redemption date as a result of the redemption or otherwise if, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or the official written interpretation of such laws, which change or amendment is publicly announced and becomes effective after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, after such later date) (each of the foregoing changes or amendments, a “Change in Tax Law”), the Issuers are, or on the next interest payment date in respect of the Notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts or if, after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, after such later date), any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions that constitutes a Change in Tax Law, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Issuers, or there is any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Issuers will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes (each such action, change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation, a “Tax Action”) (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel described in clause (ii) below to such effect is delivered to the First Lien Trustee), and, in each case, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of a new paying agent).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action will be given (a) earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuers would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action and (b) unless, at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts remains in effect.  Prior to any redemption of Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Issuers shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee (i) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuers are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of redemption have occurred and (ii) an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the First Lien Trustee to the effect that the Issuers are entitled to redeem the Notes as a result of a Change in Tax Law or a Tax Action.  The First Lien Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the holders.

The Issuers shall promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture.  An installment of principal of or interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the First Lien Trustee or the Paying Agent holds as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due and the First Lien Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.
The Issuers shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Notes, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful.
The Issuers shall maintain the proceeds of the Notes in a segregated account until such time as the Issuers shall use the proceeds in connection with the Acquisition.
SECTION 4.02    Reports and Other Information.
(a)    Notwithstanding that the Parent may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise report on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided for such annual and quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding hereunder, the Parent will furnish to the First Lien Trustee and holders the following:
(i)    within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations for non-accelerated filers, all quarterly and annual financial information of the Parent that would be required to be contained in a filing with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K (or any successor comparable forms) if the Parent were required to file such Forms; and
(ii)    promptly from time to time after the occurrence of an event required to be therein reported (and in any event within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations), current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if the Parent were required to file such reports;
provided that such reports will not be required to contain the separate financial information for the Issuers or the Guarantors contemplated by Rule 3-10 under Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC (or any successor provision).  In addition to providing such information to the First Lien Trustee, the Parent shall make available to the holders, prospective investors, market makers affiliated with any initial purchaser of the Notes and securities analysts the information required to be provided pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of this paragraph, by posting such information to its website or on IntraLinks or any comparable online data system or website, it being understood that the First Lien Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine if such information has been posted on any website.
(b)    If the Parent has designated any of its Subsidiaries as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and if any such Unrestricted Subsidiary or group of Unrestricted Subsidiaries, if taken together as one Subsidiary, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary of the Parent, then the annual and quarterly information required by clause (i) of the first paragraph of this covenant shall include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries.
(c)    In the event that:
(i)    any direct or indirect parent of the Parent (together with its Subsidiaries other than the Parent and its Subsidiaries)
(1)    had consolidated net sales of less than 2.5% of the consolidated net sales of such parent entity and all of its Subsidiaries for the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period of such parent entity; and

46

(iii)    any direct or indirect parent of the Parent is or becomes a Guarantor of the Notes, consolidating reporting at such parent entity’s level in a manner consistent with that described in clause (i) of Section 4.02(a) for the Parent will satisfy the requirements of such clause.  Upon the occurrence of the event described in clause (iii) above, the Parent may designate such parent entity as the new Parent by delivering an Officers’ Certificate to such effect to the First Lien Trustee and such parent entity shall thereafter be deemed to be the Parent for all purposes under this Indenture.  If any direct or indirect parent of the Parent is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, then reporting by such parent entity in a manner consistent with that described in clause (ii) of Section 4.02(a) for the Parent will satisfy the requirements of such clause.
(d)    In addition, the Parent will make such information available to prospective investors upon request.  In addition, the Parent shall, after the Issue Date and for so long as any Notes remain outstanding during any period when it is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or otherwise permitted to furnish the SEC with certain information pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) of the Exchange Act, furnish to the holders of the Notes and to prospective investors, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.
(e)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent will be deemed to have furnished the reports referred to in this Section 4.02 to the First Lien Trustee and the holders if the Parent has filed such reports with (or furnished such reports to) the SEC via the EDGAR filing system and such reports are publicly available, it being understood that the First Lien Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine if such information has been posted on any website.
(f)    Delivery of any reports, information and documents to the First Lien Trustee pursuant to this Section 4.02 is for informational purposes only and the First Lien Trustee’s receipt thereof shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants under this Indenture (as to which the First Lien Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).
SECTION 4.03    Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock.
(a)    (i) The Parent and the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock; and (ii) the Parent and the Issuers shall not permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Guarantor or Issuer) to issue any shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Parent, any Issuer and any other Guarantor may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor or an Issuer may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), issue shares of Disqualified Stock or issue shares of Preferred Stock, in each case if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Parent for the 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 Preferred Stock is issued 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 Preferred Stock had been issued, as the case may be, and the application of proceeds therefrom had occurred at the beginning of such four-quarter period.
(b)    The limitations set forth in Section 4.03(a) shall not apply to:
(i)    the Incurrence by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness (including under any Credit Agreement and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) up to an aggregate principal amount outstanding at the time of Incurrence that does not exceed the greater of (x) $3,100.0 million and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Consolidated Total Indebtedness that at the time of Incurrence does not cause the First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio for the Parent for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available, determined on a pro forma basis, to exceed the First Lien Incurrence 

47

Threshold; provided that for purposes of determining the amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred under clause (i)(y), all Indebtedness incurred under this clause (i) shall be treated as Indebtedness secured by First Priority Liens;
(ii)    the Incurrence by the Parent, the Issuers and the other Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes issued on the Issue Date and the Guarantees;

(xiii)    Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary and Preferred Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate principal amount or liquidation preference at any time outstanding, together with Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof incurred pursuant to clause (xv) hereof, not greater than 100.0% of the net cash proceeds received by the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries since immediately after the Issue Date from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Parent or cash contributed to the capital of the Parent (in each case other than proceeds of Disqualified Stock or sales of Equity Interests to, or contributions received from the Parent, the Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries) to the extent such net cash proceeds or cash have not been applied to make Restricted Payments or to make other Investments, payments or exchanges pursuant to Section 4.04(b) or to make Permitted Investments (other than Permitted Investments specified in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the definition thereof) (plus, in the case of any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof Incurred pursuant to clause (xv) below, the Additional Refinancing Amount) (it being understood that any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xiii) shall cease to be deemed incurred or outstanding for purposes of this clause (xiii) but shall be deemed incurred for the purposes of Section 4.03(a) from and after the first date on which the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, could have incurred such Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a) without reliance upon this clause (xiii));
(xiv)    any guarantee by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness or other obligations of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary so long as the Incurrence of such Indebtedness Incurred by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary is permitted under the terms of this Indenture; provided that (A) if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Guarantee of the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, any such guarantee with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or such Guarantee, as applicable, substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantee, as applicable, and (B) if such guarantee is of Indebtedness of the Issuers, such guarantee is Incurred in accordance with, or not in contravention of, Section 4.11 solely to the extent Section 4.11 is applicable;

50

which such Restricted Subsidiary could have Incurred such Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a) without reliance upon this clause (xx)); provided that in no event shall the proceeds of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (xx) be used for any refinancing of Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date (other than Indebtedness of Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Issuers or Guarantors);
(xxi)    Indebtedness of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary consisting of (A) the financing of insurance premiums or (B) take-or-pay obligations contained in supply arrangements, in each case, in the ordinary course of business;

(xxiii)    Indebtedness in respect of Obligations of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary to pay the deferred purchase price of goods or services or progress payments in connection with such goods and services; provided that such obligations are incurred in connection with open accounts extended by suppliers on customary trade terms in the ordinary course of business and not in connection with the borrowing of money or any Hedging Obligations;
(xxiv)    Indebtedness of, incurred on behalf of, or representing guarantees of Indebtedness of joint ventures, subject to compliance with Section 4.04; and
(xxv)    Indebtedness of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary to or on behalf of any joint venture (regardless of the form of legal entity) that is not a Restricted Subsidiary arising in the ordinary course of business in connection with the cash management operations (including with respect to intercompany self-insurance arrangements) of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries.
(c)    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.03:
(1)    in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (xxv) of Section 4.03(b) above or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03(a), then the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if Incurred at such later time), such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 4.03; provided that Indebtedness outstanding under a Credit Agreement entered into on or prior to the Issue Date shall be incurred under clause (i) of Section 4.03(b) above and may not be reclassified;
(2)    at the time of Incurrence, the Issuer will be entitled to divide and classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the categories of Indebtedness described in Section 4.03(a) or clauses (i) through (xxv) of Section 4.03(b) (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to any other clause or paragraph of Section 4.03 (or any portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to any such clause or paragraph (or any portion thereof); and
(3)    in connection with the Incurrence (including with respect to any Incurrence on a revolving basis pursuant to a revolving loan commitment) of any Indebtedness under clause (i)(y) of Section 4.03(b), the Parent or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may, by written notice to the First Lien Trustee at any time prior to the actual Incurrence of such Indebtedness designate such Incurrence as having occurred on the date of such prior notice, and any related subsequent actual Incurrence will be deemed for all purposes under this Indenture to have been Incurred on the date of such prior notice.
Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, amortization of original issue discount, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 4.03.  Where any Indebtedness of any Person other than the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries is guaranteed by one or more of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries, the aggregate amount of Indebtedness of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries deemed to be Incurred or outstanding as a result of all such guarantees shall not exceed the amount of 

51

such guaranteed Indebtedness.  Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness which is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 4.03.
For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount (or, if applicable, the liquidation preference, face amount, or the like) of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt.  However, if the Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and the 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 the refinancing, the U.S. dollar-denominated restriction will be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount (or, if applicable, the liquidation preference, face amount, or the like) of the refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount (or, if applicable, the liquidation preference, face amount, or the like) of the Indebtedness being refinanced, plus any additional Indebtedness Incurred to pay premiums (including tender premiums), accrued and unpaid interest, expenses, underwriting discounts, commissions, defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.03, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies.  The principal amount (or, if applicable, the liquidation preference, face amount, or the like) of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which the respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of the refinancing.
SECTION 4.04    Limitation on Restricted Payments.
(a)    The Parent and the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(iv)    make any Restricted Investment;
(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of such Restricted Payment:
(1)    no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;

52

(2)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, the Issuer could Incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under Section 4.03(a); and
(3)    such Restricted Payment (including Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (i) (to the extent that such Restricted Payment would have reduced the Cumulative Credit if made at the date of the declaration or giving of notice referred to therein and without duplication of any such reduction), (ii)(C) (to the extent that the reference to clause (vi) therein operates by reference to clause (vi)(C)), (vi)(C) and (viii) of Section 4.04(b), but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.04(b)), is less than the amount equal to the Cumulative Credit.
(b)    The provisions of Section 4.04(a) shall not prohibit:
(i)    the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any irrevocable redemption within 60 days after the date of declaration or giving notice thereof, if at the date of declaration or the giving notice of such irrevocable redemption, as applicable, such payment would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture;

(B)    the declaration and payment of dividends on the Retired Capital Stock out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the Parent or the Issuer) of Refunding Capital Stock; and
(C)    if immediately prior to the retirement of Retired Capital Stock, the declaration and payment of dividends thereon was permitted under clause (vi) of this Section 4.04(b) and not made pursuant to clause (ii)(B), the declaration and payment of dividends on the Refunding Capital Stock (other than Refunding Capital Stock the proceeds of which were used to redeem, repurchase, retire or otherwise acquire any Equity Interests of the Parent) in an aggregate amount per year no greater than the aggregate amount of dividends per annum that were declarable and payable on such Retired Capital Stock immediately prior to such retirement;
(iii)    the redemption, repurchase, defeasance, or other acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness of the Parent, an Issuer or any Guarantor made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, new Indebtedness of the Parent, an Issuer or a Guarantor which is Incurred in accordance with Section 4.03 so long as:
(A)    the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable) of such new Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount (or accreted value, if applicable), plus any accrued and unpaid interest, of the Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired for value (plus the amount of any premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument governing the Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, acquired or retired, plus any tender premiums, plus any defeasance costs, fees, underwriting discounts, commissions and expenses incurred in connection therewith);
(B)    (i) if the existing Indebtedness of the Parent, an Issuer or any other Guarantor being redeemed, repurchased, defeased, or otherwise acquired or retired for value is Subordinated Indebtedness, such new Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes or the related Guarantee of such Guarantor, as the case may be, at least to the same extent as such Subordinated Indebtedness so purchased, exchanged, redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired for value and (ii) if the existing Indebtedness of the Parent, an Issuer or any other Guarantor being redeemed, repurchased, defeased, or otherwise acquired or retired for value is Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness, such new Indebtedness is either Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness;

53

(C)    such Indebtedness has a final scheduled maturity date equal to or later than the earlier of (x) the final scheduled maturity date of the Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired and (y) 91 days following the last maturity date of any Notes then outstanding; and
(D)    such Indebtedness has a Weighted Average Life to Maturity at the time Incurred which is not less than the shorter of (x) the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness being so redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired and (y) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity that would result if all payments of principal on the Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness being redeemed, repurchased, defeased, acquired or retired that were due on or after the date that is one year following the last maturity date of any Notes then outstanding were instead due on such date;
(iv)    a Restricted Payment to pay for the repurchase, retirement or other acquisition for value of Equity Interests of the Parent held by any future, present or former employee, director, officer or consultant of the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent pursuant to any management equity plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit plan or other agreement or arrangement; provided, however, that the aggregate Restricted Payments made under this clause (iv) do not exceed $50.0 million in any calendar year, with unused amounts in any calendar year being permitted to be carried over to succeeding calendar years; provided, further, however, that such amount in any calendar year may be increased by an amount not to exceed:
(A)    the cash proceeds received by the Parent or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries from the sale of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Parent to employees, directors, officers or consultants of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries that occurs after the Issue Date (provided that the amount of such cash proceeds utilized for any such repurchase, retirement, other acquisition or dividend will not increase the amount available for Restricted Payments under clause (2) of the definition of “Cumulative Credit”), plus
(B)    the cash proceeds of key man life insurance policies received by the Parent or the Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date;
provided that the Parent or the Issuer may elect to apply all or any portion of the aggregate increase contemplated by clauses (A) and (B) above in any calendar year; provided, further, that cancellation of Indebtedness owing to the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary from any present or former employees, directors, officers or consultants of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with a repurchase of Equity Interests of the Parent will not be deemed to constitute a Restricted Payment for purposes of this Section 4.04 or any other provision of this Indenture;
(v)    the declaration and payment of dividends or distributions to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Stock of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary issued or incurred in accordance with Section 4.03;

(xvii)    the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Subordinated Indebtedness, Junior Priority Indebtedness or unsecured Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions similar to those described in Section 4.06 and Section 4.08; provided that all Notes tendered by holders of the Notes in connection with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value;
(xviii)    payments or distributions to dissenting stockholders pursuant to applicable law, pursuant to or in connection with a consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that complies with Section 5.01; provided that as a result of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer of assets, the Issuers shall have made a Change of Control Offer (if required by this Indenture) and that all Notes tendered by holders in connection with such Change of Control Offer have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value;
(xix)    any Restricted Payment used to fund the Transactions and the payment of Transaction Expenses incurred or owed by the Parent, the Issuer or the Restricted Subsidiaries to Affiliates, and any other payments made, whether payable on the Issue Date or thereafter, in each case to the extent permitted by Section 4.07;

(c)    Neither the Parent nor the Issuers will permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.”  For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Designated Subsidiary in connection with the Restructuring and Settlement Transactions or an Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, upon the occurrence of the Chapter 11 Plan Effective Date) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investments.”  Such designation of a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Designated Subsidiary in connection with the 

55

Restructuring and Settlement Transactions or an Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, upon the occurrence of the Chapter 11 Plan Effective Date) will only be permitted if a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary in connection with the Restructuring and Settlement Transactions or an Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, prior to the occurrence of the Chapter 11 Plan Effective Date. Nothing set forth herein shall prohibit (i) the designation of any Designated Subsidiary or any Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or (ii) upon the occurrence of the Chapter 11 Plan Effective Date, the designation of any Designated Subsidiary or any Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case that is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, as a Restricted Subsidiary.
SECTION 4.05    Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries.  The Parent and the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any Material Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of an Issuer or any Material Subsidiary to:
(a)    pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary (1) on its Capital Stock, or (2) with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits; or
(b)    make loans or advances to the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a direct or indirect parent of such Material Subsidiary,
except in each case for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:
(1)    contractual encumbrances or restrictions in effect or entered into on the Issue Date, including (A) pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Agreement Documents and (B) the Existing Notes, the Existing Notes Indentures, and the related guarantees, and, in each case, any similar contractual encumbrances effected by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of such agreements or instruments;
(2)    this Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, the First Lien Collateral Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements;
(3)    applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order;
(4)    any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary which was in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person and its Subsidiaries, or the property or assets of the Person and its Subsidiaries, so acquired;
(5)    contracts or agreements for the sale of assets, including any restriction with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary imposed pursuant to an agreement entered into for the sale or disposition of the Capital Stock or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary;
(6)    Secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be Incurred pursuant to Section 4.03 and Section 4.12 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness;
(7)    restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;
(8)    customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;
(9)    purchase money obligations for property acquired and Capitalized Lease Obligations in the ordinary course of business;
(10)    customary provisions contained in leases, licenses and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

56

(11)    any encumbrance or restriction that restricts in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject to a lease, license or similar contract, or the assignment or transfer of any such lease, license (including, without limitation, licenses of intellectual property) or other contracts;
(12)    any encumbrance or restriction of a Securitization Subsidiary effected in connection with a Securitization Financing;
(13)    other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (a) of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary that is an Issuer, a Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary or (b) of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not an Issuer, a Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary so long as such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument will not materially affect the Issuers’ ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Notes (as determined in good faith by the Issuer); provided that in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is permitted to be Incurred subsequent to the Issue Date pursuant to Section 4.03;
(14)    any Restricted Investment not prohibited by Section 4.04 and any Permitted Investment; or
(15)    any encumbrances or restrictions of the type referred to in Section 4.05(a) or (b) above imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (1) through (14) above; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Issuer, no more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing.
For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.05, (i) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on other Capital Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (ii) the subordination of loans or advances made to the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Parent or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.
SECTION 4.06    Asset Sales.
(a)    The Parent and the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x) the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of, and (y) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of each of the following shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for purposes of this provision:
(i)    any liabilities (as shown on the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto) of the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets or that are otherwise canceled or terminated in connection with the transaction with such transferee, excluding (A) any Existing Notes and (B) any other Indebtedness included in the calculation of Consolidated Total Indebtedness that is both (1) unsecured or Junior Priority Indebtedness and (2) a direct obligation of, or guaranteed by, all or substantially all of the Issuers and the Guarantors;
(ii)    any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days of the receipt thereof (to the extent of the cash received);
(iii)    Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Sale, to the extent that the Parent and each Restricted Subsidiary are released from any guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with the Asset Sale and the assumption of such guarantee, if any, would be deemed to be Cash Equivalents under clause (i) above;

57

(iv)    consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the Issue Date from Persons who are not the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary; and
(v)    any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Issuer), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this Section 4.06(a)(v) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $600.0 million and 4.0% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).
(b)    Within 365 days after the Parent’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option:
(i)    to repay (A) Indebtedness constituting Bank Indebtedness and other Pari Passu Indebtedness, in each case that is secured by a  Lien permitted under this Indenture (and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto), (B) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, (C) First Priority Notes Obligations or (D) other Pari Passu Indebtedness (provided that if the Parent, an Issuer or any Guarantor shall so reduce Obligations under such Pari Passu Indebtedness under this clause (D), the Issuer will equally and ratably reduce First Priority Notes Obligations in accordance with Article III of this Indenture, through open-market purchases (provided that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof or, in the event that the Notes were issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event that the Notes were issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest, the pro rata principal amount of Notes), in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Parent or an Affiliate of the Parent; provided that the Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale of First Lien Collateral or assets of the Cadence IP Subsidiary may not be applied to repay any Indebtedness other than the Notes or other Pari Passu Indebtedness secured by a Lien (other than a Lien that is junior in priority to the Liens securing the Notes or any Guarantee) on such First Lien Collateral, except as otherwise permitted under this covenant (provided that if the Parent, an Issuer or any Guarantor shall so repay Obligations under such Pari Passu Indebtedness (other than Pari Passu Indebtedness secured by a Lien that is senior in priority to the Liens securing the Notes or any Guarantee), the Issuer will, to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement as in effect on February 21, 2018, equally and ratably reduce First Priority Notes Obligations in accordance with Article III of this Indenture, through open-market purchases (provided that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event that the Notes were issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest, the pro rata principal amount of Notes); provided, further, that if such Asset Sale involves the disposition of First Lien Collateral, the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary has complied with the provisions of this Indenture and the First Lien Collateral Documents; or
(ii)    to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent), assets, or property or capital expenditures, in each case (A) used or useful in a Similar Business or (B) that replace the properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale or to reimburse the cost of any of the foregoing incurred on or after the date on which the Asset Sale giving rise to such Net Proceeds was contractually committed.
In the case of Section 4.06(b)(ii), a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment until the 12-month anniversary of the date of the receipt of such Net Proceeds; provided that in the event such binding commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are so applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds unless the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another binding commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within six months of such cancellation or termination of the prior binding commitment; provided, further, that the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary may only enter into a Second Commitment under the foregoing provision one time with respect to each Asset Sale and to the extent such Second Commitment is later canceled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied or are not applied within 180 days of such Second Commitment, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

58

Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or invest such Net Proceeds in any manner not prohibited by this Indenture.  Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not applied as provided and within the time period set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 4.06(b) (it being understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to purchase Notes, as described in clause (i) of this Section 4.06(b), shall be deemed to have been so applied whether or not such offer is accepted) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.”  When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $125.0 million, the Issuer shall make an offer to all holders of Notes (and, at the option of the Issuer, to holders of any other Pari Passu Indebtedness secured by a Lien (other than a Lien that is junior in priority to the Liens securing the Notes or a Guarantee) on the First Lien Collateral (the “Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness”)) (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes (and any such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness), that is at least $2,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event the Notes or any such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness were issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest (or, in respect of such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness), to, but excluding, the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture.  The Issuer will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten (10) Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceeds $125.0 million by mailing, or delivering electronically if the Notes are held by the Depository, the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, with a copy to the First Lien Trustee.  To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes (and such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness) tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose that is not prohibited by this Indenture.  If the aggregate principal amount of Notes (and such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness) surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the First Lien Trustee, upon receipt of written notice from the Issuer of the aggregate principal amount to be selected, shall select the Notes (but not such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness) to be purchased in the manner described in Section 4.06(e).  Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.
(c)    The Issuer will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in this Indenture by virtue thereof.
(d)    [reserved].
(e)    If more Notes (and such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness) are tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer than the Issuers are required to purchase, selection of such Notes (but not such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness) for purchase shall be made by the First Lien Trustee on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable, by lot or by such other method as the First Lien Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in such manner as complies with the requirements of the Depository, if applicable); provided that no Notes of $2,000 or less shall be purchased in part.  Selection of such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness shall be made pursuant to the terms of such Eligible Pari Passu Indebtedness.
(f)    Notices of an Asset Sale Offer shall be mailed by the Issuers by first class mail, postage prepaid, or delivered electronically if the Notes are held by the Depository, at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the purchase date to each holder of Notes at such holder’s registered address.  If any Note is to be purchased in part only, any notice of purchase that relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof that has been or is to be purchased.
SECTION 4.07    Transactions with Affiliates.
(a)    The Parent and the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, 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 or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Parent (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, unless:
(i)    such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Parent or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

59

(ii)    with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50.0 million, the Parent or the Issuer delivers to the First Lien Trustee a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Parent or the Issuer, approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above.
(b)    The provisions of Section 4.07(a) shall not apply to the following:
(i)    transactions between or among the Parent and/or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (or an entity that becomes the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction) and any merger, consolidation or amalgamation of the Parent and any direct parent of the Parent; provided that such parent shall have no material liabilities and no material assets other than cash, Cash Equivalents and the Capital Stock of the Parent and such merger, consolidation or amalgamation is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture and effected for a bona fide business purpose;
(ii)    Restricted Payments permitted by Section 4.04 and Permitted Investments;
(iii)    the payment of reasonable and customary fees and reimbursement of expenses paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary;
(iv)    transactions in which the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, delivers to the First Lien Trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of clause (i) of Section 4.07(a);
(v)    payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to officers, directors, employees or consultants which are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Parent or the Issuer in good faith;
(vi)    any agreement as in effect as of the Issue Date or any amendment thereto (so long as any such agreement together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, is not more disadvantageous to the holders of the Notes in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date) or any transaction contemplated thereby as determined in good faith by the Issuer;
(vii)    the existence of, or the performance by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under the terms of any stockholders or limited liability company agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the Issue Date, and, in each case, any amendment thereto or similar transactions, agreements or arrangements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing transaction, agreement or arrangement or under any similar transaction, agreement or arrangement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (vii) to the extent that the terms of any such existing transaction, agreement or arrangement together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, or new transaction, agreement or arrangement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the holders of the Notes in any material respect than the original transaction, agreement or arrangement as in effect on the Issue Date;
(viii)    the execution of the Transactions, and the payment of all fees, expenses, bonuses and awards related to the Transactions;
(ix)    (A) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, 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 fair to the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the reasonable determination of the Board of Directors or the senior management of the Parent or the Issuer, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party, or (B) transactions with joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice or industry norm;
(x)    any transaction effected as part of a Securitization Financing;
(xi)    the issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Parent to any Person;

60

(xii)    the issuances of securities or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment arrangements, stock option and stock ownership plans or similar employee benefit plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Parent, or the Board of Directors of a Restricted Subsidiary, as appropriate, in good faith;
(xiii)    [reserved];
(xiv)    any contribution to the capital of the Parent;
(xv)    transactions permitted by, and complying with, Section 5.01;
(xvi)    transactions between the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that such Person abstains from voting as a director of the Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, on any matter involving such Person;
(xvii)    pledges of Equity Interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries;
(xviii)    the formation and maintenance of any consolidated group or subgroup for tax, accounting or cash pooling or management purposes in the ordinary course of business;
(xix)    any employment agreements entered into by the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business;
(xx)    transactions undertaken in good faith (as certified by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Issuer in an Officers’ Certificate) for the purpose of improving the consolidated tax efficiency of the Parent and its Subsidiaries and not for the purpose of circumventing any covenant set forth in this Indenture;
(xxi)    [reserved]; and
(xxii)    any purchase by the Parent or its Affiliates of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of the Parent or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that such purchases are on the same terms as such purchases by such Persons who are not the Parent’s Affiliates.
SECTION 4.08    Change of Control.
(a)    Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuers to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), in accordance with the terms contemplated in this Section 4.08; provided, however, that notwithstanding the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuers shall not be obligated to purchase any Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08 in the event that they have previously or concurrently elected to redeem such Notes in accordance with Article III of this Indenture.  In the event that at the time of such Change of Control, the terms of the Bank Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08, then prior to the mailing of the notice to holders provided for in Section 4.08(b) but in any event within 30 days following any Change of Control with respect to the Notes, the Issuers shall:  (i) repay in full all Bank Indebtedness or, if doing so will allow the purchase of the Notes, offer to repay in full all Bank Indebtedness and repay the Bank Indebtedness of each lender and/or note-holder who has accepted such offer; or (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements governing the Bank Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of the Notes as provided for in Section 4.08(b).
(b)    Within 30 days following any Change of Control, except to the extent that the Issuers have exercised their right to redeem the Notes by delivery of a notice of redemption in accordance with Article III of this Indenture, the Issuer shall mail, or deliver electronically if the Notes are held by DTC, a notice (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of Notes with a copy to the First Lien Trustee stating:
(i)    that a Change of Control has occurred and that such holder has the right to require the Issuers to repurchase such holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date);

61

(ii)    the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information regarding such Change of Control;
(iii)    the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 15 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed or delivered electronically); and
(iv)    the instructions determined by the Issuers, consistent with this Section 4.08, that a holder must follow in order to have its Notes purchased.
(c)    Holders electing to have a Note purchased shall be required to surrender the Note, with an appropriate form duly completed, to the Issuer at the address specified in the notice, or transfer such Note by book entry transfer to the Issuer, at least three Business Days prior to the purchase date.  The holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the First Lien Trustee or the Issuer receives not later than one Business Day prior to the purchase date a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the holder, the principal amount of the Note which was delivered for purchase by the holder and a statement that such holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased.  Holders whose Notes are purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered.
(d)    On the purchase date, all Notes purchased by the Issuers under this Section 4.08 shall be delivered to the First Lien Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuers shall pay the purchase price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the holders entitled thereto (subject to the right of holders of record on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
(e)    A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for such Change of Control at the time of making of such Change of Control Offer.
(f)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.
(g)    Notes repurchased by the Issuers pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will have the status of Notes issued but not outstanding or will be retired and canceled at the option of the Issuers.  Notes purchased by a third party pursuant to the preceding clause (f) and clause (i) below will have the status of Notes issued and outstanding.
(h)    The Issuers shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 4.08.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of this Section 4.08, the Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.08 by virtue thereof.
(i)    If holders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuers, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuers as described above, purchase all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, the Issuers or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 15 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the date of redemption.  Any such redemption shall be effected pursuant to Article III.
SECTION 4.09    Compliance Certificate.  The Issuer shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Issuer, beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 25, 2020, an Officers’ Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Issuer they would normally have knowledge of any Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default that occurred during such period.  If any Officer does, the certificate shall describe the Default, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.  Except with respect to receipt of payments of principal and interest on the Notes and any Default or Event of Default information contained in the Officers’ Certificate delivered to it pursuant to this Section 4.09, the First Lien Trustee shall have no duty to review, ascertain or confirm the Issuer’s compliance with or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made in this Indenture.

SECTION 4.10    Further Instruments and Acts.  Upon request of the First Lien Trustee, the Issuers shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.
SECTION 4.11    Future Guarantors.
(a)    The Parent shall cause each of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries that is not an Excluded Subsidiary and that guarantees or becomes a borrower under the Credit Agreement or that guarantees any other Capital Markets Indebtedness of the Parent, an Issuer or any of the Guarantors to execute and deliver to the First Lien Trustee a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto pursuant to which such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary will guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations.
(b)    Each Guarantee will be subject to such prudential limitations as the Issuer may in good faith determine to add to the terms of such Guarantee and limitations under applicable law and limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the applicable Guarantor without (i) rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally or under any applicable mandatory corporate law, (ii) resulting in any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference, thin capitalization laws, retention of title claims, capital maintenance rules, general statutory limitations, or the laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions) of any applicable jurisdiction or any similar principles which may limit the ability of any Foreign Subsidiary to provide a guarantee or may require that the guarantee be limited by an amount or scope or otherwise or (iii) resulting, without corresponding limitations, in any (x) material risk to the officers of the applicable Guarantor of contravention of their fiduciary duties or any legal prohibition and/or (y) risk to the officers of the applicable Guarantor of civil or criminal liability (all such limitations applicable to a given Guarantee, the “Applicable Guarantee Limitations”).
SECTION 4.12    Liens.
(a)    The Parent and the Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist any Lien (except Permitted Liens) on any asset or property of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary securing Indebtedness of the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any Lien shall be permitted on any asset or property that is not First Lien Collateral if the Notes and the Guarantees are equally and ratably secured with (or, at the Issuers’ election, on a senior basis to) the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien; provided that any such security shall be on a senior basis to any such Indebtedness that is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Notes.
(b)    Any Lien that is granted to secure the Notes or any Guarantee under Section 4.12(a) shall be automatically released and discharged at the same time as the release of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Notes or such Guarantee.
(c)    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.12, (i) a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of Permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.12(a) but may be permitted in part under any combination thereof and (ii) in the event that a Lien securing an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.12(a), the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if Incurred at such later time), such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant and will be entitled to only include the amount and type of such Lien or such item of Indebtedness secured by such Lien (or any portion thereof) in one of the categories of permitted Liens (or any portion thereof) described in the definition of “Permitted Liens” or pursuant to Section 4.12(a) and, in such event, such Lien securing such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) will be treated as being Incurred or existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof) or pursuant to Section 4.12(a) without giving pro forma effect to such item (or portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Liens or Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to any other clause or paragraph.
(d)    With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness.  The “Increased Amount” of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms or in the form of Capital Stock (other than Preferred Stock) of the Parent, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class, accretion of 

63

original issue discount or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness described in clause (11) of the definition of “Indebtedness.”
(e)    The Parent and the Issuers will not, and will not permit any of the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to exist any Lien on any fee owned Real Property and leasehold interests in Real Property, including Principal Properties (as defined in the Existing 2013 Senior Notes Indenture) of the Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary securing Indebtedness of the Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary for borrowed money (other than Indebtedness incurred to fund the acquisition or improvement of the Real Property subject to such Lien); provided that any such Lien shall be permitted if (i) such Lien is permitted under Section 4.12(a) and (ii) the Notes and the Guarantees are also secured by a Lien on the applicable Real Property until such time as obligations secured by such Lien are no longer so secured.
SECTION 4.13    Limitations on Activities of the US Co-Issuer.  The US Co-Issuer shall not be permitted to and the Issuer will cause the US Co-Issuer not to hold any material assets, become liable for any material obligations, engage in any trade or business, or conduct any business activity, other than (1) the issuance of its Equity Interests to the Issuer or any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, (2) the Incurrence of Indebtedness as a co-obligor or guarantor, as the case may be, of the Notes and any other Indebtedness that is permitted to be Incurred under Section 4.03 and (3) activities incidental thereto.
SECTION 4.14    Maintenance of Office or Agency.
(a)    The Issuers shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office of the First Lien Trustee or an affiliate of the First Lien Trustee or Registrar) where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange.  The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the First Lien Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.  If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the First Lien Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations and surrenders may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the First Lien Trustee as set forth in Section 14.01.
(b)    The Issuers 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 shall in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes.  The Issuers shall give prompt written notice to the First Lien Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.
(c)    The Issuer hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the First Lien Trustee or its agent as such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.04.
SECTION 4.15    Existence.  The Issuers shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect their legal existence and the rights, licenses, permits, privileges and franchises material to the conduct of their business; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any transaction permitted under Section 5.01; and provided, further, that the Issuers shall not be required to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect any such right, license, permit, privilege, franchise or legal existence if (i) the Issuers shall determine in good faith the preservation, renewal or keeping in full force and effect thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuers or (ii) the failure to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect any such right, license, permit, privilege, franchise or legal existence is not adverse in any material respect to the holders of the Notes.
SECTION 4.16    Covenant Suspension.  If on any date following the Issue Date, (i) the Notes have Investment Grade Ratings from both Rating Agencies, and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, then, beginning on that day (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a “Covenant Suspension Event”), and subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.11 and 5.01(a)(iv) (collectively the “Suspended Covenants”).
In the event that the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries are not subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture for any period of time as a result of the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the “Reversion Date”) one or both of the Rating Agencies withdraw their Investment Grade Rating or downgrade the rating assigned to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants under this Indenture with respect to future events.

64

The Issuer shall provide the First Lien Trustee with written notice of each Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion Date within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence thereof.
Additionally, during a Suspension Period the Parent will no longer be permitted to designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless the Parent would have been permitted to designate such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if a Suspension Period had not been in effect for any period and, following the Reversion Date, such designation shall be deemed to have created an Investment pursuant to Section 4.04(c) at the time of such designation.
On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified as having been Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or 4.03(b) (to the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would be permitted to be Incurred or issued thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness Incurred or issued prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the Reversion Date).  To the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock would not be so permitted to be Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 4.03(a) or 4.03(b), such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Issue Date, so that it is classified as permitted under Section 4.03(b)(iii).  Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.04 will be made as though Section 4.04 had been in effect since the Issue Date and prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period (except to the extent expressly set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph).  Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.04(a) (except to the extent expressly set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph).  As described above, no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred on the Reversion Date as a result of any actions taken by the Parent or the Restricted Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising prior to the Reversion Date, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period.  Within 30 days of such Reversion Date, the Parent and the Issuers must comply with the terms of Section 4.11.
For purposes of Section 4.05, on the Reversion Date, any consensual encumbrances or consensual restrictions of the type specified in Section 4.05(a) or 4.05(b) thereof entered into during the Suspension Period will be deemed to have been in effect on the Issue Date, so that they are permitted under Section 4.05(1)(A).
For purposes of Section 4.07, any Affiliate Transaction entered into after the Reversion Date pursuant to a contract, agreement, loan, advance or guaranty with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Issuer entered into during the Suspension Period will be deemed to have been in effect as of the Issue Date for purposes of Section 4.07(b)(vi).
For purposes of Section 4.06, on the Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds amount will be reset to zero.
SECTION 4.17    Additional Amounts.
(a)    All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuers or any Guarantor under or with respect to the Notes or any Guarantee will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future Taxes unless required by law.  If any such withholding or deduction is required for or on account of Taxes imposed by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes or under any Guarantee (including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium (if any)), the Issuers or such Guarantor, as the case may be, will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each beneficial owner of Notes (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will equal the amount the beneficial owner would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to:
(i)    any Tax, to the extent such Tax would not have been imposed but for the existence of any actual or deemed present or former connection between the holder or the beneficial owner of such Notes and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including being or having been a national, citizen or resident of, carrying on a business in, being or having been physically present in or having or having had a permanent establishment in, the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) other than a connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership, holding or disposition of the Notes, the enforcement of rights under the Notes or any Guarantee or the receipt of payments under or in respect of the Notes or any Guarantee;
(ii)    any Tax, to the extent such Tax is imposed or withheld as a result of the failure of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes to satisfy any certification, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of such holder or beneficial owner 

65

which is required by applicable law, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, all or part of such Tax (including, without limitation, a certification that the holder or beneficial owner is not resident in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction), but in each case, only to the extent such holder or beneficial owner is legally eligible to provide such certification or other documentation;
(iii)    any Tax that would not have been imposed if the presentation of Notes (where presentation is required) for payment had occurred within 30 days after the date such payment was due and payable or was duly provided for, whichever is later (except to the extent that the holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the note been presented within such 30-day period);
(iv)    any estate, inheritance, gift, value added, sales or similar Tax;
(v)    any Tax, to the extent such Tax imposed in respect of a holder or beneficial owner and required to be withheld or deducted pursuant to the European Union Directive on the taxation of savings income (the “Directive”) that was adopted by the ECOFIN Council of the European Union (the Counsel of EU finance and economic ministers) on June 3, 2003, or any other Directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN meeting of November 26-27, 2000, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, the Directive or the Luxembourg law of December 23, 2005;
(vi)    any Tax that could have been avoided by the presentation of Notes (where presentation is required) for payment to another paying agent in a member state of the European Union;
(vii)    any Tax payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments under, or with respect to, the Notes or the Guarantee;
(viii)    any withholding or deduction required pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code as of the Issue Date (or any amended or successor version), any regulations or agreements thereunder, official interpretations thereof, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such sections of the Code; or
(ix)    any combination of clauses (i) through (viii) above.
(b)    The applicable withholding agent will (i) make any required withholding or deduction; and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Relevant Taxing Authority in accordance with applicable law.  The Issuers or any Guarantor, as applicable, will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of Taxes so deducted or withheld from each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will provide such certified copies to the First Lien Trustee.  If certified copies of such tax receipts are not reasonably obtainable, the Issuers or such Guarantor, as applicable, shall provide the First Lien Trustee with other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the First Lien Trustee.  Such certified copies or other evidence shall be made available to holders upon request.
(c)    Each of the Issuers and the Guarantors will indemnify and hold harmless each holder and beneficial owner from and against any Taxes withheld or deducted (other than Taxes excluded by clauses (i) through (ix) above) that are levied or imposed on a holder or beneficial owner (x) as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Notes or (y) with respect to any indemnification payments under the foregoing clause (x) or this clause (y), such that the net amount received by such holder or beneficial owner after such indemnification payments will not be less than the net amount the holder or beneficial owner would have received if the Taxes described in clauses (x) and (y) above had not been imposed.
(d)    Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of amounts based upon the principal amount of the Notes or of principal, premium (if any) or interest or of any other amount payable under or with respect to any of the Notes, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
(e)    The Issuers will pay any present or future stamp, issue, registration, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise, property or similar Taxes, that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, issuance, delivery, registration or enforcement of the Notes, any Guarantee, this Indenture, or any other document or instrument referred to therein, or the receipt of any payments with respect to the Notes or the Guarantees (“Documentary Taxes”); provided that the Issuer will not be liable for any Luxembourg registration duties, which would become payable as a result of the registration, by any holder, of the documents relating to the Notes, any Guarantee, this Indenture, or any other document or instrument referred to herein or 

66

therein, when such registration is not required to enforce that holder’s rights under the documents relating to the Notes, any Guarantee, this Indenture, or any other document or instrument referred to herein or therein.
(f)    The obligation to pay Additional Amounts and Documentary Taxes under the terms and conditions described above will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of this Indenture, and will apply mutatis mutandis to any successor to the Issuers or any Guarantor and to any jurisdiction in which any such successor is incorporated, organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes, or any jurisdiction from or through which any such successor makes payment on the Notes or any Guarantee, and any political subdivision or Taxing Authority thereof or therein.
SECTION 4.18    After-Acquired Collateral.
(a)    If any asset is acquired by any Issuer or Guarantor after the Issue Date or owned by an entity at the time it becomes a Guarantor (in each case other than (x) assets constituting First Lien Collateral under a First Lien Collateral Document that become subject to the Lien of such First Lien Collateral Document upon acquisition thereof, (y) assets constituting Excluded Property or Excluded Securities and (z) assets of any Issuer or Guarantor organized outside the United States or Luxembourg for so long as, and to the extent with respect to this clause (z), excluded by reason of the final paragraph of the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”), such Issuer or Guarantor, as applicable, will (i) notify the First Lien Collateral Agent of such acquisition or ownership and (ii) subject (where applicable) to the Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles, cause such asset to be subjected to a Lien (subject to any Permitted Liens) securing the First Priority Notes Obligations by, and take, and cause the Issuers and Guarantors to take, such actions as shall be required to cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to such asset, including actions described in Section 4.19.
(b)    If any Restricted Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor after the Issue Date, then the Issuers and the Guarantors shall cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary and with respect to any Equity Interest in or Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary owned by or on behalf of any Issuer or Guarantor.
(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Indenture or any other Note Document, the First Lien Collateral Documents to be entered into on the Issue Date shall consist solely of the Issue Date Security Documents.  Subject, where applicable, to the Agreed Guaranty and Security Principles, the Issuers and the Guarantors shall take such actions as shall be reasonably requested by the First Lien Collateral Agent to cause the assets (other than (x) assets constituting First Lien Collateral under a First Lien Collateral Document in effect, (y) assets constituting Excluded Property or Excluded Securities and (z) assets of any Issuer or Guarantor organized outside the United States or Luxembourg for so long as, and to the extent with respect to this clause (z), excluded by reason of the final paragraph of the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”) of the Issuers and the Guarantors (to the extent constituting such on the Issue Date) to be subjected to a Lien (subject to any Permitted Liens) securing the First Priority Notes Obligations and the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied (as if each Guarantor were a Person that became a Guarantor after the Issue Date), in each case (i) with respect to all material assets of the Issuer and the Guarantors (it being acknowledged and agreed that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on an Officers' Certificate with respect to any determination of whether any assets constitute material assets and not be responsible to independently verify such determination) (to the extent owned thereby on the Issue Date) within 30 days following the Issue Date (or such later date as the First Lien Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion; provided that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall agree to a reasonably selected later date if the Issuer shall have delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such actions cannot be reasonably completed with commercially reasonable efforts due to factors caused by the COVID-19 virus (it being acknowledged and agreed that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such Officers’ Certificate without any independent verification thereof)) and (ii) with respect to all other assets of the Issuer and the Guarantors (it being acknowledged and agreed that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on an Officers' Certificate with respect to any determination of whether any assets constitute material assets and not be responsible to independently verify such determination) (to the extent owned thereby on the Issue Date) within 75 days following the Issue Date (or such later date as the First Lien Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion; provided that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall agree to a reasonably selected later date if the Issuer shall have delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such actions cannot be reasonably completed with commercially reasonable efforts due to factors caused by the COVID-19 virus (it being acknowledged and agreed that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such Officers’ Certificate without any independent verification thereof)); provided that the Issuers and Guarantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the actions described in this clause (ii) to be taken within 30 days following the Issue Date (or such later date as the First Lien Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion; provided that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall agree to a reasonably selected later date if the Issuer shall have delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such actions cannot be reasonably completed with commercially reasonable efforts due to factors caused by the COVID-19 virus (it being acknowledged and agreed that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such Officers’ Certificate without any independent verification thereof)). 

67

SECTION 4.19    Further Assurances.  The Issuers and the Guarantors shall execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements and other documents), that the First Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request (including, without limitation, those required by applicable law), to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and to cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be and remain satisfied, all at the expense of the Issuers and the Guarantors, and provide to the First Lien Collateral Agent, from time to time upon reasonable request, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent as to the perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the First Lien Collateral Documents.
SECTION 4.20    Certain Orders.  (i) The Issuers will deliver to Paul, Weiss, Rifkind & Garrison LLP (as counsel to the Specified Noteholders) a draft of any confirmation order confirming any Chapter 11 Plan no less than 24 hours in advance of the filing thereof, (ii) the Issuers shall consult with the Paul, Weiss, Rifkind & Garrison LLP (as counsel to the Specified Noteholders), if requested thereby, as to the terms of such confirmation order and (iii) the terms of such confirmation order shall not prohibit the granting of guarantees or liens by the Designated Subsidiaries and Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiaries as set forth in Section 4.21. 
SECTION 4.21    Required Re-Restriction.  The Issuers and the Guarantors will, on the Chapter 11 Plan Effective Date and solely to the extent permitted by all applicable Requirements of Law, take all actions as are necessary to cause (i) each Designated Subsidiary that is an Unrestricted Subsidiary and each Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary to be redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to each such Designated Subsidiary and each such Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary (and which shall at a minimum include the actions described in clauses (A) and (B) of the immediately succeeding sentence to the extent required to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, it is understood that to the extent any Collateral may not be perfected by (A) the filing of a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement or (B) taking delivery and possession of a stock certificate of each such Designated Subsidiary and Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiary organized or incorporated in Luxembourg, Switzerland or the United States or any State thereof, the Equity Interests of which are certificated and are required to be pledged pursuant this Indenture, then the perfection of the security interest in such Collateral shall be accomplished after the Chapter 11 Plan Effective Date as described under Section 4.18.
SECTION 4.22    Restructuring and Settlement Transactions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Note Document, the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries and Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted to consummate, and perform in respect of, the Restructuring and Settlement Transactions; provided, however, that (i) no payments which, as part of the Restructuring and Settlement Transactions, become owed to the holders of any Opioid Claims, as consideration for the resolution of such Opioid Claims, shall be secured by Liens on any assets of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) no Liens shall be created, Incurred or suffered to exist on the assets of the Designated Subsidiaries and Additional Chapter 11 Unrestricted Subsidiaries, in each case so long as such entities are Unrestricted Subsidiaries, securing Indebtedness for borrowed money or any guarantee thereof (other than any intercompany debtor-in-possession loan), in excess of $10,000,000 in aggregate principal amount.
SECTION 4.23    Cadence IP Licensee.  So long as the Cadence IP Licensee is a Guarantor or an Issuer, any Indebtedness of the Cadence IP Licensee or guarantee of Indebtedness other than the Notes Obligations by the Cadence IP Licensee shall, unless such Indebtedness or guarantee would be permitted to be secured by Liens on assets of the Cadence IP Licensee (other than Liens that would be junior to the Liens securing the Guarantee of the Cadence IP Licensee) or would be permitted to be incurred while the Cadence IP Licensee is not a Guarantor, be subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantee by the Cadence IP Licensee or the other First Notes Obligations of the Cadence IP Licensee on terms that are commercially reasonable.

SECTION 5.01    When Issuers and Guarantors May Merge or Transfer Assets.
(a)    The Issuer may not, directly or indirectly, consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind up or convert into (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions, to any Person unless:

68

(i)    the Issuer is the surviving Person or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, winding up or conversion (if other than the Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company or similar entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof, any member state of the European Union or Switzerland (collectively, the “Permitted Jurisdictions” and the Issuer or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Company”); provided that in the event that the Successor Company is not a corporation or limited liability company (or equivalent of a corporation or limited liability company in any Permitted Jurisdiction listed in this clause (i)), a co-obligor of the Notes is a corporation or limited liability company (or such equivalent);
(ii)    the Successor Company (if other than the Issuer) expressly assumes all the obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the First Lien Collateral Documents pursuant to supplemental indentures or other applicable documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent;
(iii)    immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(iv)    immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), either
(1)    the Successor Company would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.03(a); or
(2)    the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Parent would be no less than such ratio immediately prior to such transaction;
(v)    if the Issuer is not the Successor Company, each Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Guarantee shall apply to such Person’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes; and

This Section 5.01 will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among the Restricted Subsidiaries.
(b)    Subject to the provisions of Section 12.02(b), no Guarantor nor the US Co-Issuer shall, and the Parent shall not permit any such Guarantor or the US Co-Issuer to, consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind up or convert into (whether or not such Guarantor or the US Co-Issuer is the surviving Person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any Person unless:

(i)    the Guarantee of the Parent or a Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) with respect to the Notes ceases to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof) or the Parent or any other Guarantor that qualifies as a Significant Subsidiary (or any group of Subsidiaries that together would constitute a Significant Subsidiary) denies or disaffirms its obligations under this Indenture or any Guarantee with respect to the Notes and such Default continues for 10 days,
(j)    unless such Liens have been released in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture or other Note Documents, Liens securing the First Priority Notes Obligations with respect to a material portion of the First Lien Collateral cease to be valid, perfected or enforceable, or the Issuer shall assert or any Guarantor shall assert, in any pleading in any court of competent jurisdiction, that any such Lien is invalid, unperfected or unenforceable and, in the case of any such Guarantor, the Issuer fail to cause such Guarantor to rescind such assertions within 30 days after the Issuer have actual knowledge of such assertions; provided that no Event of Default shall occur under this clause (j) if the Issuers and the Guarantors cooperate with the First Lien Collateral Agent to replace or perfect such Lien, such Lien is promptly replaced or perfected (as needed) and the rights, powers and privileges of the First Priority Notes Secured Parties are not materially adversely affected by such replacement or perfection;

71

However, a default under clause (c), (d) or (k) above shall not constitute an Event of Default until the First Lien Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes notify the Parent and Issuer, with a copy to the First Lien Trustee, of the default and neither the Parent nor the Issuers cure such default within the time specified in clause (c), (d) or (k) hereof after receipt of such notice.  Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.”
The Issuer shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Default or Event of Default (unless such Default or Event of Default has been cured before the end of such 30-day period), the status of such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.
The term “Bankruptcy Law” means the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors.  The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.
SECTION 6.02    Acceleration.  If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) hereof with respect to the Issuers) occurs and is continuing, the First Lien Trustee by notice to the Issuers or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuers (with a copy to the First Lien Trustee) may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable.  Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest shall be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) with respect to the Issuers occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the First Lien Trustee or any holders.  In addition, upon the acceleration of the Notes in connection with an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), (b), (f) or (g) prior to April 15, 2024, an amount equal to the Applicable Premium or optional redemption premium, as applicable, that would have been payable in connection with an optional redemption of the Notes at the time of the occurrence of such acceleration will become and be immediately due and payable with respect to all Notes without any declaration or other act on the part of the First Lien Trustee or any holders of the Notes and shall constitute part of the Notes Obligations in view of the impracticability and difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each holder’s lost profits as a result thereof. If the Applicable Premium or other premium becomes due and payable pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Applicable Premium or other premium, as applicable, shall be deemed to be principal of the Notes and interest shall accrue on the full principal amount of the Notes (including the Applicable Premium or such other premium) from and after the applicable triggering event. Any premium payable pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph shall be presumed to be liquidated damages sustained by each holder as the result of the acceleration of the Notes and the Issuers agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The premium set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph shall also be payable in the event the Notes or the Indenture are satisfied, released or discharged through foreclosure, whether by judicial proceeding, deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. THE ISSUERS EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE FIRST SENTENCE OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Issuers expressly agree (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the premium set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business entities ably represented by counsel; (B) the premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time acceleration occurs; (C) there has been a course of conduct between holders and the Issuers giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the premium; and (D) the Issuers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Issuers expressly acknowledge that their agreement to pay the premium to holders pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph is a material inducement to holders to acquire the Notes. The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration and its consequences if:
(a)    all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and
(b)    the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.
In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(e), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the First Lien Trustee or the holders of any of the Notes, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Issuer delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the First Lien Trustee stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it 

72

being understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Notes as described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events.
SECTION 6.03    Other Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the First Lien Trustee may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture.
The First Lien 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 First Lien Trustee or any holder 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.  No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy.  To the extent required by law, all available remedies are cumulative.
SECTION 6.04    Waiver of Past Defaults
.  Provided the Notes are not then due and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the First Lien Trustee may waive an existing Default and its consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on a Note, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Note when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each holder of Notes affected.  When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Issuers, the First Lien Trustee and the holders of Notes will be restored to their former positions and rights under this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.
SECTION 6.05    Control by Majority.  The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the First Lien Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the First Lien Trustee with respect to the Notes.  The First Lien Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the First Lien Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder of the Notes or that would involve the First Lien Trustee in personal liability; provided that the First Lien Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not any action or forbearance on the part of a holder of a Note is unduly preferential or prejudicial to any other holder of a Note.  Prior to taking any action under this Indenture, the First Lien Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.
SECTION 6.06    Limitation on Suits.
(a)    Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:
(i)    such holder has previously given the First Lien Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing with respect to such holder’s Notes,
(ii)    holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the First Lien Trustee to pursue the remedy,
(iii)    such holders have offered the First Lien Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense,
(iv)    the First Lien Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity, and
(v)    the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the First Lien Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.
(b)    A holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another holder (it being understood that the First Lien Trustee shall have no obligation to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to any other holder).
SECTION 6.07    Rights of the Holders to Receive Payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any holder to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Notes held by such holder, on or after the 

73

respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Notes, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder.
SECTION 6.08    Collection Suit by First Lien Trustee.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the First Lien Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on overdue principal and (to the extent lawful) on any unpaid interest at the rate provided for in the Notes) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07.
SECTION 6.09    First Lien Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  The First Lien Trustee may file such proofs of claim, statements of interest and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent (including any claim for reasonable compensation, expenses disbursements and advances of the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent (including counsel, accountants, experts or such other professionals as the First Lien Trustee or the First Lien Collateral Agent, as applicable, deems necessary, advisable or appropriate)) and the holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers, the Guarantors, their creditors or their property, shall be entitled to participate as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matters and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each holder to make payments to the First Lien Trustee and, in the event that the First Lien Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the holders, to pay to the First Lien Trustee any amount due it or the First Lien Collateral Agent for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the First Lien Trustee, the First Lien Collateral Agent, and each of their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the First Lien Trustee or the First Lien Collateral Agent under Section 7.07.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the First Lien Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any holder, or to authorize the First Lien Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any holder in any such proceeding.
SECTION 6.10    Priorities.  Subject to the provisions of the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, any money or property collected by the First Lien Trustee pursuant to this Article VI and any other money or property distributable in respect of the Issuers’ or any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture after an Event of Default shall be applied in the following order:
FIRST:  to the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent for amounts due hereunder (including the reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of the First Lien Trustee’s and the First Lien Collateral Agent’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts in accordance with Section 7.07);
SECOND:  to the holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and
THIRD:  to the Issuers or, to the extent the First Lien Trustee collects any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.
The First Lien Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the holders pursuant to this Section 6.10.  At least 15 days before such record date, the First Lien Trustee shall mail to each holder and the Issuers a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid.
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 First Lien Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as First Lien 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 and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant.  This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the First Lien Trustee, a suit by a holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes.
SECTION 6.12    Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.  Neither the Issuers nor any Guarantor (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuers and the Guarantors (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly 

74

waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the First Lien Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

GUARANTEE
SECTION 12.01    Guarantee.
(a)    Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees, on a secured, unsubordinated basis, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to each holder and to the First Lien Trustee and its successors and assigns the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Issuers under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes and all other monetary obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture and the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all the foregoing being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from any Guarantor, and that each Guarantor shall remain bound under this Article XII notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.
(b)    Each Guarantor waives presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Issuer of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment.  Each Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations.  The Guarantee of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any holder or the First Lien Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Issuers or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any holder or the First Lien Trustee for the Guaranteed Obligations or each Guarantor; (v) the failure of any holder or First Lien Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (vi) any change in the ownership of each Guarantor, except as provided in Section 12.02(b).  Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have its Guarantee hereunder divided among the Guarantors, such that such Guarantor’s Guarantee would be less than the full amount claimed.
(c)    Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Issuers first be used and depleted as payment of the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture and the Issuers’ or such Guarantor’s Guarantee hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to which it may be entitled to require that the Issuers be sued prior to an action being initiated against such Guarantor.
(d)    Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment and, performance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any holder or the First Lien Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.
(e)    The Guarantee of each Guarantor is, to the extent and in the manner set forth in Article XII, equal in right of payment to all existing and future Pari Passu Indebtedness, senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of such Guarantor.
(f)    Except as expressly set forth in Sections 8.01(b), 12.02 and 12.06, the Guarantee of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantee of each Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any holder or the First Lien Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or by any other act or thing or 

85

omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
(g)    Except as expressly set forth in Section 12.02(b), each Guarantor agrees that its Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor.  Each Guarantor further agrees that its Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any holder or the First Lien Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of an Issuer or otherwise.
(h)    In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any holder or the First Lien Trustee has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Issuers to pay the principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, each Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the First Lien Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the holders or the First Lien Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) and (iii) all other monetary obligations of the Issuers to the holders and the First Lien Trustee.
(i)    Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the holders in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the holders and the First Lien Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article VI for the purposes of the Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article VI, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purposes of this Section 12.01.
(j)    Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the First Lien Trustee in enforcing any rights under this Section 12.01.
(k)    Upon request of the First Lien Trustee, each Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.
(l)     All of the Guarantors as of the Issue Date are set forth on Exhibit F, each of which has signed this Indenture in its capacity as a Guarantor.
SECTION 12.02    Limitation on Liability.
(a)    Any term or provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by each Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed by the applicable Guarantor without rendering this Indenture, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally or under any applicable mandatory corporate law or capital maintenance or corporate benefit rules applicable to guarantees for obligations of affiliates.  In addition, each Guarantee is subject to the Applicable Guarantee Limitations applicable thereto, if any.
(b)    A Guarantee as to any Guarantor (other than, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) below, a Guarantee of the Parent) shall automatically terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Guarantor shall be automatically released from all obligations under this Article XII upon:
(i)    the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of the Capital Stock (including any sale, disposition or other transfer following which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary), of the applicable Guarantor to a Person that is not an Issuer or a Guarantor if such sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer is made in a manner not in violation of this Indenture;
(ii)    the designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”;

86

(iii)    the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Guarantor of the Indebtedness under (i) the Credit Agreement and (ii) any Capital Markets Indebtedness of the Parent, any Issuer or any of the other Guarantors which created the obligation to guarantee the Notes, in each case to the extent that (x) such release or discharge occurs on a date no less than 100 days after the Issue Date, (y) no holder of such Indebtedness receives any direct or indirect consideration in connection with such release (including any consent fee, repayment, “exit consents” or additional covenants or credit support or other favorable terms under the documentation governing such Indebtedness) unless the holders of the Notes receive commensurate consideration (or reasonably commensurate consideration in the case of any consideration other than monetary consideration or credit support) and (z) such release is not in connection with any refinancing or replacement of such Indebtedness;
(iv)    the Issuers’ exercise of their legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option under Article VIII or if the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture are discharged in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or
(v)    such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest securing Bank Indebtedness or other exercise of remedies in respect thereof.
(c)    The Guarantee (if any) of the Parent will only be released upon (iii) and (iv) above or upon the disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent in accordance with Section 5.01 in a transaction or series of related transactions that constitutes a Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt, the release of any Guarantor from its guarantee of other Indebtedness shall not, in and of itself, result in a release of such Guarantor’s Guarantee, except as explicitly provided in Section 12.02(b)(iii).
SECTION 12.03    [Intentionally Omitted].
SECTION 12.04    Successors and Assigns.

SECTION 12.05    No Waiver.  Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the First Lien Trustee or the holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article XII shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies and benefits of the First Lien Trustee and the holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article XII at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article XII, nor the consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the First Lien Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

SECTION 13.08    First Lien Collateral Agent.

The First 

90

Lien Collateral Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 13.08. The provisions of this Section 13.08 are solely for the benefit of the First Lien Collateral Agent and none of the First Lien Trustee, any of the holders of the Notes nor any of the Issuers or Guarantors shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein other than as expressly provided in Section 13.03. Each holder of the Notes agrees that any action taken by the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with the provision of the Note Documents, and the exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies set forth herein and therein shall be authorized and binding upon all holders of the Notes. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in the Note Documents, the duties of the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Note Documents to which the First Lien Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the First Lien Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the First Lien Trustee, any holder of the Notes or any Issuer or Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Note Documents exist against the First Lien Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the First Lien Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(b)    The First Lien Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties under the Note Documents by or through receivers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or with respect to any specified Person, such Person’s Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and attorneys-in-fact of such Person and its Affiliates, (a “Related Person”) and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in taking action in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any receiver, agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Related Person that it selects as long as such selection was made with due care.
(c)    None of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Note Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) or under or in connection with any First Lien Collateral Document or Intercreditor Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the First Lien Trustee or any holder of the Notes for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by any Issuer or Guarantor or Affiliate of any Issuer or Guarantor, or any Officer or Related Person thereof, contained in this Indenture, or any other Note Documents, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the First Lien Collateral Agent under or in connection with, any of the Note Documents, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Note Documents, or for any failure of any Issuer or Guarantor or any other party to any of the Note Documents to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any of its respective Related Persons shall be under any obligation to the First Lien Trustee or any holder of the Notes to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, any of the Note Documents or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any Issuer or Guarantor or any Affiliates of any Issuer or Guarantor.
(d)    The First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, in good faith upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, certification, telephone message, statement, or other communication, document or conversation (including those by telephone or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts and advisors selected by the First Lien Collateral Agent. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Note Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the First Lien Trustee as it determines.

(e)    The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust Officer of the First Lien Collateral Agent has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default or Event of Default is received by the First Lien Collateral Agent and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture.

91

(f)    The First Lien Collateral Agent may resign at any time by notice to the First Lien Trustee and the Issuers, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as First Lien Collateral Agent. If the First Lien Collateral Agent resigns under this Indenture, the Issuers shall appoint a successor collateral agent. If no successor collateral agent is appointed prior to the intended effective date of the resignation of the First Lien Collateral Agent (as stated in the notice of resignation), the First Lien Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the First Lien Trustee, subject to the consent of the Issuers (which shall not be unreasonably withheld and which shall not be required during a continuing Event of Default), a successor collateral agent. If no successor collateral agent is appointed and consented to by the Issuers pursuant to the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the intended effective date of resignation (as stated in the notice of resignation) retiring First Lien Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective (except in the case of the First Lien Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of the holders of the Notes, the retiring the First Lien Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor collateral agent is appointed), and the holders of the Notes shall assume and perform all of the duties of the First Lien Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the holders of the Notes appoint a successor collateral agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor collateral agent hereunder, such successor collateral agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring First Lien Collateral Agent, and the term “First Lien Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor collateral agent, and the retiring First Lien Collateral Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring First Lien Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 13.08 (and Section 7.07) shall continue to inure to its benefit and the retiring First Lien Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the First Lien Collateral Agent under this Indenture.
(g)    Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch shall initially act as First Lien Collateral Agent and shall be authorized to appoint co-First Lien Collateral Agents as necessary in its sole discretion. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in the Note Documents, neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents or other Related Persons shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the First Lien Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any First Lien Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the First Lien Collateral or any part thereof. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.
(h)    The First Lien Collateral Agent is authorized and directed to (i) enter into the First Lien Collateral Documents to which it is party, whether executed on or after the Issue Date, (ii) enter into the Intercreditor Agreements, (iii) make the representations of the holders of the Notes set forth in the First Lien Collateral Documents and Intercreditor Agreements, (iv) bind the holders of the Notes on the terms as set forth in the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and (v) perform and observe its obligations under the First Lien Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.
(i)    If at any time or times the First Lien Trustee shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, realization, set-off or otherwise, any proceeds of First Lien Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations arising under, or relating to, this Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payments received by the First Lien Trustee from the First Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, or (ii) payments from the First Lien Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the Trustee pursuant to Article VI, the First Lien Trustee shall promptly turn the same over to the First Lien Collateral Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the First Lien Collateral Agent such proceeds to be applied by the First Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and the other Note Documents.
(j)    The First Lien Collateral Agent is each holder’s agent for the purpose of perfecting the holders’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code can be perfected only by possession. Should the First Lien Trustee obtain possession of any such First Lien Collateral, the First Lien Trustee shall notify the First Lien Collateral Agent thereof and promptly shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, deliver such Collateral to the First Lien Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such First Lien Collateral in accordance with the First Lien Collateral Agent’s instructions.
(k)    The First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First Lien Trustee or any of the holders of the Notes to assure that the First Lien Collateral exists or is owned by any Issuer or Guarantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the First Lien Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine 

92

whether all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ property constituting collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the First Lien Collateral Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the First Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to any Note Document other than pursuant to the instructions of the First Lien Trustee or the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes or as otherwise provided in the First Lien Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the First Lien Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the First Lien Trustee or any holder of any of the Notes as to any of the foregoing.
(l)    If any Issuer or Guarantor incurs any obligations in respect of other First Priority Obligations at any time when the First Priority Intercreditor Agreement is not in effect and delivers to the First Lien Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee to enter into a First Priority Intercreditor Agreement in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the other First Priority Obligations so incurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee shall (and are hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such First Priority Intercreditor Agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including legal fees and expenses of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee), bind the holders of the Notes on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder. If any Issuer or Guarantor incurs any obligations in respect of Second Priority Obligations at any time when the First Priority/Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement is not in effect and delivers to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee an Officer’s Certificate so stating and requesting the First Lien Collateral Agent and First Lien Trustee to enter into a First Priority/Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement in favor of a designated agent or representative for the holders of the Second Priority Obligations so incurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee shall (and are hereby authorized and directed to) enter into such First Priority/Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement (at the sole expense and cost of the Issuers, including legal fees and expenses of the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee), bind the holders of the Notes on the terms set forth therein and perform and observe its obligations thereunder. The First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee are authorized to, and, upon request of the Issuer, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the First Lien Trustee shall, enter into  a senior priority/junior priority intercreditor agreement with (together with other relevant Persons) any collateral agent and/or other authorized representative of any Junior Priority Indebtedness, which intercreditor agreement shall provide for intercreditor arrangements with respect to such Junior Priority Indebtedness that are not less favorable to the holders of the Notes in any material respect than the intercreditor arrangements set forth in the First Priority/Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement (provided that the First Priority Obligations shall be treated as the senior obligations thereunder) (any such agreement (including, without limitation, any First Priority/Second Priority Intercreditor Agreement), a “Junior Priority Intercreditor Agreement”), so long as any such Junior Priority Intercreditor Agreement is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent.  Holders of the Notes shall be deemed to have agreed to and accepted the terms of such other intercreditor arrangements complying with the requirements of this Indenture by their acceptance of the Notes.
(m)    No provision of any Note Document shall require the First Lien Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of holders of the Notes or the First Lien Trustee if it shall not have received indemnity satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent against potential costs and liabilities incurred by the First Lien Collateral Agent relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Note Documents, in the event the First Lien Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the First Lien Collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any studies of any property under the mortgages or take any such other action if the First Lien Collateral Agent has determined that the First Lien Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the First Lien Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances unless the First Lien Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the holders of the Notes in an amount and in a form all satisfactory to the First Lien Collateral Agent, protecting the First Lien Collateral Agent from all such liability. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this paragraph (m) if it reasonably no longer deems any indemnity, security or undertaking to be sufficient.
(n)    The First Lien Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with any Note Documents or instrument referred to herein or therein, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment, (ii) shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the First Lien Collateral Agent may agree in writing with the Issuers (and money held in trust by the First Lien Collateral Agent need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law) and (iii) may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to 

93

matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. The grant of permissive rights or powers to the First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be construed to impose duties to act.
(o)    The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages (included but not limited to lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action.
(p)    The First Lien Collateral Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Issuer or Guarantor under any Note Documents. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the holders of the Notes or any other Person for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Note Documents or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the First Lien Collateral Agent under or in connection with, any Note; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Note Document of any other party thereto; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any First Lien Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any First Priority Notes Obligations; the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Issuer or Guarantor; or for any failure of any Issuer or Guarantor to perform its First Priority Notes Obligations under the Note Documents. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to any holder of the Notes or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any Issuer or Guarantor of any terms of the Note Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in the Note Documents. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection or other proceeding under the Note Documents unless expressly set forth hereunder or thereunder. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to seek instructions from the holders of the Notes with respect to the administration of the Note Documents.
(q)    The parties hereto and the holders of the Notes hereby agree and acknowledge that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall not assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result of the Note Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Further, the parties hereto and the holders of the Notes hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights under the Note Documents, the First Lien Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the First Lien Collateral Agent in the First Lien Collateral and that any such actions taken by the First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such First Lien Collateral.
(r)    Upon the receipt by the First Lien Collateral Agent of a written request of the Issuers signed by one Officer of each Issuer (a “Collateral Document Order”), the First Lien Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and (so long as such documents are consistent with the terms of this Indenture and otherwise reasonably acceptable to the First Lien Collateral Agent) shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any holder of the Notes or the First Lien Trustee, any First Lien Collateral Document to be executed after the Issue Date. Such Collateral Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Collateral Document Order referred to in, this Section 13.08(r), and (ii) instruct the First Lien Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such First Lien Collateral Document. Any such execution of a First Lien Collateral Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Issuers. The holders of the Notes, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the First Lien Collateral Agent to execute such First Lien Collateral Documents.
(s)    Subject to the provisions of the applicable First Lien Collateral Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, each holder of the Notes, by acceptance of the Notes, agrees that the First Lien Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreements and the First Lien Collateral Documents to which it is a party and all agreements, documents and instruments incidental thereto, and act in accordance with the terms thereof. 
(t)    After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the First Lien Trustee may, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, direct the First Lien Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by the Note Documents.

94

(v)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or any other Note Document, in no event shall the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Trustee be responsible for, or have any duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security interests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture or the other Note Documents (including without limitation the filing or continuation of any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments, nor shall the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lien Trustee be responsible for, and neither the First Lien Collateral Agent nor the First Lien Trustee makes any representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the First Lien Collateral Documents or the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby.
(w)    Before the First Lien Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of any Issuer or Guarantor, it may require an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 14.04. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.
(x)    The Issuers shall pay compensation to, reimburse expenses of and indemnify the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 7.07.
To the extent anything in this Section 13.08 is inconsistent with the terms of the First Priority Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the First Priority Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, shall prevail. 
SECTION 13.09    Designations.  For purposes of the provisions hereof and the Intercreditor Agreements requiring the Issuers to designate Indebtedness for the purposes of the term “Future First Lien Indebtedness,” “Future First Lien Indebtedness,” “Junior Priority Indebtedness” or any other such designations hereunder or under the Intercreditor Agreements, any such designation shall be sufficient if the relevant designation is set forth in writing, signed on behalf of the Issuers by an Officer of each Issuer and delivered to the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent.

(a)    In no event shall (i) control agreements or control, lockbox or similar agreements or arrangements be required with respect to deposit or securities accounts, (ii) landlord, mortgagee and bailee waivers be required or (iii) notices be sent to account debtors or other contractual third parties, except in accordance with the Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles or in connection with a permitted exercise of remedies under the relevant First Lien Collateral Documents.
(b)    If at any time after the Issue Date, the definitions of “Excluded Property” or “Excluded Securities” or the Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles (or equivalent terms) included in the agreement described in clause (i) of the definition of the term “Credit Agreement” (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented, modified, refinanced or replaced, so long as continuing to constitute First Priority Obligations) are amended, modified or waived so as to narrow the scope of the exclusion of assets from the First Lien Collateral, the corresponding provisions in this Indenture shall be deemed automatically amended in identical fashion.
SECTION 13.11    Parallel Debt.  For the purpose of taking and ensuring the continuing validity of each Lien on the First Lien Collateral granted under the First Lien Collateral Documents governed by the laws of (or to the extent affecting assets situated in) Switzerland or any other jurisdiction in which an effective Lien cannot be granted in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent as trustee or agent for some or all of the First Priority Notes Secured Parties, notwithstanding any contrary provision in any Note Document:
(a)    each Issuer and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the First Lien Collateral Agent as an independent and separate creditor an amount (the “Parallel Obligations”) equal to: (i) all present and future, actual or contingent amounts owing by such Issuer or Guarantor to First Priority Notes Secured Parties under or in connection with the Note Documents as and when the same fall due for payment under or in connection with the Note Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any change, extension or increase in those obligations pursuant to or in connection with any amendment or supplement or restatement or novation of any Note Document, in each case whether or not anticipated as of the Issue Date) and 

95

(ii) any amount which such Issuer or Guarantor owes to First Priority Notes Secured Parties as a result of a party rescinding a Note Document or as a result of invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of a Note Document (the “Original Obligations”);
(b)    the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to claim performance of the Parallel Obligations (including, without limitation, any suit, execution, enforcement of security, recovery of guarantees and applications for and voting in respect of any kind of insolvency proceedings) and the Parallel Obligations shall not constitute the First Lien Collateral Agent and any other First Priority Notes Secured Party as joint creditors;
(c)    the Parallel Obligations shall not limit or affect the existence of the Original Obligations for which the First Priority Notes Secured Parties shall have an independent right to demand payment;
(d)    notwithstanding clauses (b) and (c) above:
(i)    the Parallel Obligations shall be decreased to the extent the First Lien Collateral Agent receives (and retains) and applies any payment against the discharge of its Parallel Obligations to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Original Obligations shall be decreased to the same extent;
(ii)    payment by any Issuer or Guarantor of its Original Obligations to the relevant First Priority Notes Secured Party shall to the same extent decrease and be a good discharge of the Parallel Obligations owing by it to the First Lien Collateral Agent; and
(iii)    if any Original Obligation is subject to any limitations under the Note Documents, then the same limitations shall apply mutatis mutandis to the relevant Parallel Obligation corresponding to that Original Obligation;
(e)    the Parallel Obligations are owed to the First Lien Collateral Agent in its own name on behalf of itself and not as agent or representative of any other person nor as trustee and all property subject to a Lien on First Lien Collateral shall secure the Parallel Obligations so owing to the First Lien Collateral Agent in its capacity as creditor of the Parallel Obligations;
(f)    each Issuer and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to require a First Priority Notes Secured Party to join any proceedings as co-claimant with the First Lien Collateral Agent in respect of any claim by the First Lien Collateral Agent against any Issuer or Guarantor under this Section 13.11;
(g)    each Issuer and Guarantor agrees that:

(ii)    any defect affecting a claim of a First Priority Notes Secured Party against any Issuer or Guarantor under or in connection with the Note Document will not affect any claim of the First Lien Collateral Agent under this Section 13.11; and
(h)    if the First Lien Collateral Agent returns to any Issuer or Guarantor, whether in any kind of insolvency proceeding or otherwise, any recovery in respect of which it has made a payment to a First Priority Notes Secured Party, that First Notes Secured Party must repay an amount equal to that recovery to the First Lien Collateral Agent.

96

(ii)    Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 shall not apply to the duties of the First Lien Collateral Agent in relation to the trusts constituted by this Indenture.

(iii)    All moneys from time to time received or recovered by the First Lien Collateral Agent in respect of the Trust Property and the net proceeds from the realization or enforcement of all or any part of the English Transaction Security shall be held by the First Lien Collateral Agent on trust to apply them at such times as the First Lien Collateral Agent considers appropriate in the order of priority set out in Section 6.10 (subject to the Intercreditor Agreements).
(iv)    Nothing in any Note Documents constitutes the First Lien Collateral Agent as an agent, trustee or fiduciary of any Issuer or Guarantor and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall not be bound to account to any First Priority Secured Party for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by it for its own account.
(v)    If the First Lien Collateral Agent were to resign or be replaced, its resignation or replacement shall only take effect upon the transfer of the Trust Property to its successor.
(c)    Termination of the Trusts.  If the First Lien Collateral Agent, with the approval of the First Lien Trustee under the Note Documents, determines that:
(i)    all of the First Priority Obligations and all other obligations secured by the English Security Documents have been fully and finally discharged; and
(ii)    no First Priority Secured Party is under any commitment, obligation or liability (actual or contingent) to make advances or provide other financial accommodation to any Issuer or Guarantor pursuant to the Note Documents,
then the trusts created by this Section 13.12 shall be wound up and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall release, without recourse or warranty, all of the English Transaction Security and the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent under each of the English Security Documents.
To the extent anything in this Section 13.12 is inconsistent with the terms of the First Priority Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the First Priority Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, shall prevail.

(a)    the First Lien Collateral Agent shall hold:
(1)    any security created or evidenced or expressed to be created or evidenced under or pursuant to a First Lien Swiss Transaction Security Document by way of a security assignment (Sicherungsabtretung) or transfer for security purposes (Sicherungsübereignung) or any other non-acccessory (nicht akzessorische) security;

The table of contents, cross-reference sheet and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

SECTION 14.15    Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH OF THE ISSUERS, THE GUARANTORS, THE FIRST LIEN TRUSTEE AND THE FIRST LIEN COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Accordingly, each of the parties agree to provide to the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent, upon their request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the First Lien Trustee and the First Lien Collateral Agent to comply with Applicable Law.
SECTION 14.17    Intercreditor Agreements.  Reference is made to the Intercreditor Agreements.

Simultaneously with the authentication of the Regulation S Permanent Global Note, the First Lien Trustee shall cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Note.  The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Note and the Regulation S Permanent Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the First Lien Trustee and the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, in connection with transfers of interest as hereinafter provided.

The Depository may be treated by the Issuers, the First Lien Trustee and any agent of the Issuers or the First Lien Trustee as the sole owner of the Global Notes for all purposes under the Indenture and the Notes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuers, the First Lien Trustee or any agent of the Issuers or the First Lien Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository, or impair, as between the Depository, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, or their respective Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note.
(ii)    Transfers of Global Notes shall be limited to transfer in whole, but not in part, to the Depository, Euroclear or Clearstream, their successors or their respective nominees.  Interests of beneficial owners in the Global Notes may be transferred or exchanged for Definitive Notes only in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository, Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be and the provisions of Section 2.2.  In addition, a Global Note shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes if (x) the Depository (1) notifies the Issuers at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depository for such Global Note and a successor depository is not appointed within 90 days or (2) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (y) the Issuers, at their option, notify the First Lien Trustee in writing that the Issuers elect to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes or (z) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Notes; provided that in no event shall the Regulation S Temporary Global Note be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes prior to (x) the expiration of the Restricted Period and (y) the receipt by the Registrar of any certificates required pursuant to Rule 903(b)(3)(ii)(B) under the Securities Act.  In addition, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be exchanged for Definitive Notes upon request but only upon at least 20 days’ prior written notice given to the trustee by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with customary procedures.  In all cases, Definitive Notes delivered in exchange for any Global Note or beneficial interests therein shall be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with its customary procedures and will bear, in the case of the Rule 144A Global Notes or the Regulation S Global Notes, the restrictive legend required by Section 2.2(f) below.
(iii)    In connection with the transfer of a Global Note as an entirety to beneficial owners pursuant to subsection (ii) of this Section 2.1(b), such Global Note shall be deemed to be surrendered to the First Lien Trustee for cancellation, and the Issuers shall execute, and, upon written order of the Issuers signed by an Officer, the First Lien Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depository in writing in exchange for its beneficial interest in such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations.
(iv)    Any Transfer Restricted Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.2 shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2, bear the Restricted Notes Legend.
(v)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, through the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream unless delivery is made in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.2.
(vi)    The holder of any Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.
2.2    Transfer and Exchange.
(a)    Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.  A Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except as set forth in Section 2.1(b).  Global Notes will not be exchanged by the Issuers for Definitive Notes except under the circumstances described in Section 2.1(b)(ii).  Global Notes also may be exchanged or replaced, in whole or in-part, as provided in Section 2.08 of this Indenture.  Beneficial interests in a Global Note may be transferred and exchanged as provided in Section 2.2(b).
(b)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes.  The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in the Global Notes shall be effected through the Depository, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository.  Beneficial interests in Transfer Restricted Global Notes shall be subject 

112

to restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act.  Beneficial interests in Global Notes shall be transferred or exchanged only for beneficial interests in Global Notes.  Transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests in the Global Notes also shall require compliance with either subparagraph (i) or (ii) below, as applicable, as well as one or more of the other following subparagraphs, as applicable:
(i)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests in the Same Global Note.  Beneficial interests in any Transfer Restricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Transfer Restricted Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Restricted Notes Legend; provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, transfers of beneficial interests in a Regulation S Global Note may not be made to a U.S. Person or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person.  A beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note.  No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.2(b)(i).
(ii)    All Other Transfers and Exchanges of Beneficial Interests in Global Notes.  In connection with all transfers and exchanges of beneficial interests in any Global Note that is not subject to Section 2.2(b)(i), the transferor of such beneficial interest must deliver to the Registrar (1) a written order from an Agent Member given to the Depository in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository directing the Depository to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in another Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest to be transferred or exchanged and (2) instructions given in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository containing information regarding the Agent Member account to be credited with such increase.  Upon satisfaction of all of the requirements for transfer or exchange of beneficial interests in Global Notes contained in this Indenture and the Notes or otherwise applicable under the Securities Act, the First Lien Trustee shall adjust the principal amount of the relevant Global Note pursuant to Section 2.2(g).
(iii)    Transfer of Beneficial Interests to Another Restricted Global Note.  A beneficial interest in a Transfer Restricted Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Transfer Restricted Global Note if the transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.2(b)(ii) above and the Registrar receives the following:
(A)    if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form attached to the applicable Note; and
(B)    if the transferee will take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note, then the transferor must deliver a certificate in the form attached to the applicable Note.
A beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Note to be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note may be made only upon receipt by the First Lien Trustee of a written certification from the transferor to the effect that such transfer is being made:  (1) to a Person whom the transferor reasonably believes is a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A; and (2) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other jurisdiction.
Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the Restricted Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the First Lien Trustee a written certificate to the effect that such transfer is being made to a Non U.S. Person in an offshore transaction in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if available) and that, if such transfer occurs prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, the interest transferred will be held immediately thereafter through Euroclear or Clearstream.
(iv)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in a Transfer Restricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note.  A beneficial interest in a Transfer Restricted Global Note may be exchanged by any holder thereof for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note or transferred to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note if the exchange or transfer complies with the requirements of Section 2.2(b)(ii) above and the Registrar receives the following:
(A)    if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Transfer Restricted Global Note proposes to exchange such beneficial interest for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate from such holder in the form attached to the applicable Note; or

113

(B)    if the holder of such beneficial interest in a Transfer Restricted Global Note proposes to transfer such beneficial interest to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Note, a certificate from such holder in the form attached to the applicable Note,
and, in each such case, if the Issuers or the Registrar so request or if the applicable rules and procedures of the Depository so require, an Opinion of Counsel in form reasonably acceptable to the Issuers and the Registrar to the effect that such exchange or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained herein and in the Restricted Notes Legend are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with the Securities Act.  If any such transfer or exchange is effected pursuant to this subparagraph (iv) at a time when an Unrestricted Global Note has not yet been issued, the Issuers shall issue and, upon receipt of an written order of the Issuers in the form of an Officers’ Certificate in accordance with Section 2.01 of the Indenture, the First Lien Trustee shall authenticate one or more Unrestricted Global Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of beneficial interests transferred or exchanged pursuant to this subparagraph (iv).
(v)    Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in an Unrestricted Global Note for Beneficial Interests in a Transfer Restricted Global Note.  Beneficial interests in an Unrestricted Global Note cannot be exchanged for, or transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of, a beneficial interest in a Transfer Restricted Global Note.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action will be given (a) earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuers would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action and (b) unless, at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts remains in effect.  Prior to any redemption of Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Issuers shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee (i) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuers are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of redemption have occurred and (ii) an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the First Lien Trustee to the effect that the Issuers are entitled to redeem the Notes as a result of a Change in Tax Law or a Tax Action.  The First Lien Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the holders.
7.     Mandatory Redemption.
The Issuers will not be required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
8.     Notice of Redemption.
Notices of redemption will be mailed (or caused to be mailed) by first-class mail, or delivered electronically if the Notes are held by DTC, at least 15 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date, to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address (with a copy to the First Lien Trustee), except that redemption notices may be mailed or otherwise delivered more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Notes pursuant to Article VIII of the Indenture.  On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption so long as the Issuers have deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the principal of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed.

16.    Defaults and Remedies.
If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) of the Indenture with respect to the Issuers) occurs and is continuing, the First Lien Trustee by notice to the Issuers or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Notes by notice to the Issuers (with a copy to the First Lien Trustee) may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable.  Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately.  If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or (g) of the Indenture with respect to the Issuers occurs, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Notes will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the First Lien Trustee or any holders.  In addition, upon the acceleration of the Notes in connection with an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a), (b), (f) or (g) of the Indenture prior to April 15, 2024, an amount equal to the Applicable Premium or optional redemption premium, as applicable, that would have been payable in connection with an optional redemption of the Notes at the time of the occurrence of such acceleration will become and be immediately due and payable with respect to all Notes without any declaration or other act on the part of the First Lien Trustee or any holders of the Notes. The amounts described in the preceding sentence are intended to be liquidated damages and not unmatured interest or a penalty.  The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration and its consequences if:
(a)    all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; and
(b)    the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the First Lien Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of the Notes, unless such holders have offered to the First Lien Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.  Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless (i) such holder has previously given the First Lien Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing with respect to such holder’s Notes, (ii) holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have requested the First Lien Trustee to pursue the remedy, (iii) such holders have offered the First Lien Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense, (iv) the First Lien Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity, and (v) the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes have not given the First Lien Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.  The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the First Lien Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the First Lien Trustee.  The First Lien Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or that the First Lien Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other holder or that would involve the First Lien Trustee in personal liability.  Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the First Lien Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.
17.    First Lien Trustee Dealings with the Issuers.
The First Lien Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not First Lien Trustee.
18.    No Recourse Against Others.
No director, officer, employee, manager or incorporator of the Parent, an Issuer, any Guarantor or any direct or indirect parent company of the Parent, an Issuer or any Guarantor and no holder of any Equity Interests in the Parent, an Issuer, any Guarantor or any direct or indirect parent company of the Parent, an Issuer or any Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of an Issuer or any Guarantor under any Note Documents 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.
19.    Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the First Lien Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

20.    Abbreviations.
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

23.    Security.
The Notes will be secured by the First Lien Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture and the First Lien Collateral Documents and (where applicable) to the Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles.

Each purchaser acknowledges that the Issuers and the First Lien Trustee reserve the right prior to the offer, sale or other transfer prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date of the Notes pursuant to clause (b), (c) or (d) above to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certifications or other information satisfactory to the Issuers and the First Lien Trustee.

EXHIBIT D
AGREED GUARANTEE AND SECURITY PRINCIPLES
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Indenture to which this Exhibit D is attached.
(A)    Considerations.
1.     In determining what liens will be granted (and any limitations on the amount or scope of Guarantees) by Issuers or Guarantors organized outside of the United States (the “Non-U.S. Notes Parties”) to secure the First Priority Notes Obligations (the holders thereof, the “Secured Parties”) the following matters will be taken into account.  Liens shall not be created or perfected, the First Priority Notes Obligations may be limited pursuant to the terms of the relevant First Lien Collateral Documents and Guarantees may be limited in amount or scope, to the extent that it would (if created, perfected or not so limited):
(a)    result in any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference, thin capitalization laws, capital maintenance rules, general statutory limitations, retention of title claims or the laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions) of any applicable jurisdiction or any similar principles which may limit the ability of any Non-U.S. Notes Party to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or scope or otherwise;
(b)    result in any (x) material risk to the officers of the relevant grantor of liens or Guarantor of contravention of their fiduciary duties or any legal prohibition, and/or (y) risk to the officers of the relevant grantor of liens or Guarantor of civil or criminal liability;
(c)    result in costs that the Issuer and the First Lien Collateral Agent reasonably determine are excessive in relation to the benefit of such lien or Guarantee by reference to the costs of creating or perfecting the lien or Guarantees, on the one hand, versus the value of the assets being secured or Guarantee granted, on the other hand;
(d)    impose an undue administration burden on, or material inconvenience to the ordinary course of operations of, the provider of the lien or Guarantee, in each case which the Issuer and the First Lien Collateral Agent reasonably determine is excessive in relation to the benefit of such lien or Guarantee; and
(e)    create liens over any assets subject to third party arrangements which are permitted by the Indenture to the extent (and for so long as) such arrangements prevent those assets from being charged.
2.     These Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles embody recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal, regulatory and practical difficulties (including those in paragraph 1 above) in obtaining security and/or Guarantees without limitation as to amount or scope from all Non-U.S. Notes Parties in every jurisdiction in which Non-U.S. Notes Parties are located, in particular:
(a)    perfection of liens, when required, and other legal formalities will be completed as soon as practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified in the Indenture or (if earlier or to the extent no such time periods are specified in the Indenture) within the time periods specified by applicable law in order to ensure due perfection.  Perfection of security will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by the Indenture;
(b)    the maximum granted or secured amount may be limited to minimize stamp duty, notarization, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties where the benefit of increasing the granted or secured amount is reasonably determined by the Issuer and the First Lien Collateral Agent to be excessive in relation to the level of such fees, taxes and duties; or
(c)    where a class of assets to be secured includes material and immaterial assets, if the costs of granting security over the immaterial assets is reasonably determined by the Issuer and the First Lien Collateral Agent to be excessive in relation to the benefit of such security, security will be granted over the material assets only.

For the avoidance of doubt, in these Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles, “cost” includes, but is not limited to, income tax cost, registration taxes payable on the creation or enforcement or for the continuance of any liens, stamp duties, the cost of maintaining capital for regulatory purposes, out-of-pocket expenses, and other fees and expenses directly incurred by the relevant grantor of liens or any of its direct or indirect owners, subsidiaries or affiliates.
3.     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles will be subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and the Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements will govern and control.
(B)    Obligations to be Guaranteed and Secured.
1.     Subject to paragraph (A) above, the obligations to be guaranteed and secured are the First Priority Notes Obligations.  The liens and Guarantees are to be granted in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party (or equivalent local procedure and unless otherwise necessary in any jurisdictions).
2.     Where appropriate, defined terms in the First Lien Collateral Documents should mirror those in the Indenture.
3.     The parties to the Indenture agree to negotiate the form of each First Lien Collateral Document in good faith in a manner consistent with these Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles.  The form of Guarantee with respect to any Non-U.S. Notes Party shall be subject to any limitations as set out in the joinder, supplement or other Guarantee applicable to such Non-U.S. Notes Party as may be required in order to comply with local laws in accordance with these Agreed Guarantee and Security Principles.
4.     The liens granted by any Non-U.S. Notes Party in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party shall, to the extent possible under local law, be enforceable only after the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing.
(C)    Covenants/Representations and Warranties.
Any representations, warranties or covenants which are required to be included in any First Lien Collateral Document shall reflect (to the extent to which the subject matter of such representation, warranty and covenant is the same as the corresponding representation, warranty and undertaking in the Indenture) the commercial deal set out in the Indenture (save to the extent that applicable local counsel advise it necessary to include any further provisions (or deviate from those contained in this Agreement) in order to protect or preserve the liens granted to the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party).  Accordingly, the First Lien Collateral Documents shall not include, repeat or extend clauses set out in the Indenture, including the representations or undertakings in respect of information, indemnities or the payment of costs, in each case, unless applicable local counsel advise it necessary in order to ensure the validity of any First Lien Collateral Document or the perfection of any lien granted thereunder.
(D)    Liens over Equity Interests.
1.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, equitable share charges (or the equivalent in local jurisdictions) will be made over equity interests in Non-U.S. Notes Parties to the extent required by the Indenture or any First Lien Collateral Document.
2.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, equitable share charges (or the equivalent in local jurisdictions) over equity interests in Non-U.S. Notes Parties will be granted pursuant to which the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party will be entitled, subject to local laws, to transfer the equity interests and satisfy themselves out of the proceeds of such sale upon enforcement of the lien.
3.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, to the extent permitted under local law, share pledges should contain provisions to ensure that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the grantor of the lien is entitled to receive dividends and exercise voting rights in any shareholders’ meeting of the relevant company (except if exercise would adversely affect the validity or enforceability of the lien or cause an Event of Default to occur) and if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing the voting and dividend receipt rights may only be exercised by the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party, it being understood that if such Event of Default is subsequently remedied or waived, the right to receive dividends and the voting rights in any shareholders’ meeting of the relevant company shall return to the grantor of the lien.

4.     Liens over equity interests will, where possible, automatically charge further equity interests issued or otherwise contemplate a procedure for the extension (at the cost of the relevant Issuer or Guarantor) of liens over newly-issued shares.
5.     Liens will not be created over minority shareholdings or equity interests in joint ventures where the consent of a third party is required before the relevant Issuer or Guarantor can create a lien over the same unless such consent has been obtained.
6.     Liens will not be created on equity interests so long as same constitute Margin Stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States).
(E)    Liens over Receivables of Non-U.S. Notes Parties.
1.     Except where an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the proceeds of receivables shall not be paid into a nominated account.
2.     Each relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party shall not be required to notify third party debtors to any contracts that have been assigned and/or charged under a First Lien Collateral Document unless (i) so required by the First Lien Collateral Agent if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) otherwise customary under the relevant local practice and is not (in the Issuer’s good faith determination (with any such determination set forth in an Officers’ Certificate of the Issuer being definitive)) materially prejudicial to the business relationship of such Non-U.S. Notes Party. The First Lien Collateral Agent shall however be entitled to give such notice if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
3.     No lien will be granted under local law over any receivables to the extent (and for so long as) such receivable cannot be secured under the terms of the relevant contract.
(F)    Insurances.
1.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, proceeds of material insurance policies owned by each relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party (excluding third party liability insurance policies) are to be assigned by way of security or pledged to the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party.  Proceeds of insurance shall be collected and retained by the relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party (without the further consent of the Secured Parties) (i) unless such insurance proceeds must be applied to mandatory repurchase of the Notes or mandatory prepayments of Bank Indebtedness and other Pari Passu Indebtedness in accordance with the Indenture, subject to any reinvestment rights therein or (ii) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
2.     If required by local law to create or perfect the security, notice of the security will be served on the insurance provider within 10 business days of the security being granted and the Non-U.S. Notes Party shall use its reasonable endeavours to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within 30 business days of service.  If a Non-U.S. Notes Party has used its reasonable endeavours, but has not been able to obtain acknowledgement of its obligations to obtain acknowledgement shall cease on the expiry of that 30-business-day period.  In relation to any Swiss law governed First Lien Collateral Documents, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have the right to notify the insurance provider of the security granted at any time. 
(G)    Material Contracts and Claims.
1.     Each relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party shall not be required to notify the counterparties to any contracts that have been charged/assigned under a First Lien Collateral Document that such contract has been so charged/assigned unless required by the First Lien Collateral Agent if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  Liens should not be created over contracts, leases or licenses which prohibit assignment or the creation of such liens or which require the consent of third parties for the creation of such liens or such assignment.
2.     Proceeds of material contracts and claims shall be collected and retained by the relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party (without the further consent of the Secured Parties) (i) unless such proceeds must be applied to mandatory repurchase of the Notes or mandatory prepayments of Bank Indebtedness or other Pari Passu Indebtedness in accordance with the Indenture, subject to any reinvestment rights therein, or (ii) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(H)    Liens Over Material Intellectual Property.
1.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, liens over all registrable Material Intellectual Property (other than any applications for trademarks or service marks filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”), or any successor office thereto pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §1051 Section 1(b) unless and until evidence of use of the mark in interstate commerce is submitted to the PTO pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §1051 Section 1(c) or Section 1(d)) owned by each relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party are to be given, and registration is to be made in all relevant local registries in which the grantor of the liens is resident or is otherwise required under local law unless the granting of such liens would contravene any legal or contractual prohibition. Where any relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party has the right to the use of any Material Intellectual Property through contractual arrangements to which it is a party, a lien over such contract and/or any rights arising thereunder shall be given in favor of the First Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of each Secured Party, except to the extent (and for so long as) the giving over of such liens would contravene any legal or contractual prohibition.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, liens should not be created over intellectual property or any contractual relationships described above (or any rights arising thereunder) where such lien or assignment is prohibited or the consent of third parties would be required for the creation of such lien or such assignment.
2.     If a Non-U.S. Notes Party grants a lien over any of its intellectual property, it will be free to deal with those assets in the course of its business (including, without limitation, allowing any intellectual property to lapse or become abandoned if, in the reasonable judgment of the Parent, it is no longer economically practicable to maintain or useful in the conduct of the business of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
3.     “Material Intellectual Property” is to be defined as intellectual property owned by the Non-U.S. Notes Parties which is material to the carrying out of the business of Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
(I)    Liens Over Bank Accounts.
1.     No Non-U.S. Notes Party shall be required to perfect a lien over a bank account.
(J)    Other Material Assets.
Liens shall be given over any other material assets of any relevant Non-U.S. Notes Party from time to time, according to the principles set out herein.  Such Non-U.S. Notes Party shall be free to deal with those assets in the course of its business until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(K)    Perfection of Liens.
1.     Where customary, a First Lien Collateral Document may contain a power of attorney allowing the First Lien Collateral Agent to perform on behalf of the grantor of the lien, its obligations under such First Lien Collateral Document only if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
2.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, where obligatory or customary under the relevant local law all registrations and filings necessary in relation to the First Lien Collateral Documents and/or the liens evidenced or created thereby are to be undertaken within applicable time limits, by the appropriate local counsel (based on local law and custom), unless otherwise agreed.
3.     Subject to paragraphs (A) and (B) above, where obligatory or customary, documents of title relating to the assets charged will be required to be delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent.
4.     Except as explicitly provided herein, notice, acknowledgement or consent to be obtained from a third party will only be required where the efficacy of the lien requires it or where it is practicable and reasonable having regard to the costs involved, the commercial impact on the Non-U.S. Notes Party in question and the likelihood of obtaining the acknowledgement and, when possible without prejudicing the validity of the lien concerned, such perfecting procedures shall be delayed until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(L)    Liens.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Indenture, no provision contained herein shall prejudice the right of the Non-U.S. Notes Parties to benefit from the permitted exceptions set out in the Indenture regarding the granting of liens over assets.
(M)    Proceeds.
The First Lien Collateral Documents will state that the proceeds of enforcement of such First Lien Collateral Documents will be applied as specified in the Indenture.
(N)    Regulatory Consent.
The enforcement of security over shares and the exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent of voting rights in respect of such shares may be subject to regulatory consent.  Accordingly, enforcement of any security over any shares subject to such a restriction, and the exercise by the First Lien Collateral Agent of the voting rights in respect of any such shares, will be expressed to be conditional upon obtaining any consents required by law or regulation.

Section
2.04 Authentication and Delivery of Securities. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee
shall thereupon authenticate and deliver such Securities to or upon the written order of the Issuer, such order to be signed by
both (a) the chairman of its Board of Directors, its president or any vice president and by its treasurer, any assistant treasurer,
its secretary or any assistant secretary, without any further action by the Issuer. In authenticating such Securities and accepting
the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities the Trustee shall receive, and (subject to
Section 5.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon:

 

(a)
a certified copy of any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors authorizing the action taken pursuant to the resolution
or resolutions delivered under clause (b) below;

 

(b)
a copy of any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors relating to such series, in each case certified by the secretary

(i)
that the form or forms and terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors
or by a supplemental indenture as permitted by Section 2.01 and 2.03 in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

 

    	- 10 -

    	 

    

 

(ii)
that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Issuer in the manner and subject to any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer enforceable against
the Issuer in accordance with their terms, except to the extent that enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights
generally, and general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law).

 

The
Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities under this section if the Trustee, being advised
by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken by the Issuer or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of
directors or board of trustees, executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees or Responsible Officers shall
determine that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability.

 

If
the Issuer shall establish pursuant to Section 2.03 that the Securities of a series or a portion thereof are to be issued in the
form of one or more Registered Global Securities, then the Issuer shall execute (in accordance with Section 2.05) and the Trustee
shall authenticate and make available for delivery one or more Registered Global Securities that (i) shall represent and shall
be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate Principal amount of all of the Securities of such series issued in such form
and not yet canceled, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Registered Global Security or Securities
or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or its custodian or pursuant to
such Depositary’s instructions and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless and until
it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive registered form, this Security may not be transferred except
as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee
of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.”

 

Section
2.05 Execution of Securities. The Securities shall be signed on behalf of the Issuer by the chairman of its Board of Directors,
its president, any vice president, its treasurer or any assistant treasurer, under its corporate seal and attested by its secretary
or any assistant secretary. Such signatures may be the manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such officers.
The seal of the Issuer may be in the form of a facsimile thereof and may be impressed, affixed, imprinted or otherwise reproduced
on the Securities. Typographical and other minor errors or defects in any such reproduction of the seal or any such signature
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security that has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee.

 

In
case any officer of the Issuer who shall have signed any of the Securities shall cease to be such officer before the Security
so signed shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Issuer, such Security nevertheless may be
authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Security had not ceased to be such officer of
the Issuer; and any Security may be signed on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of
such Security, shall be the proper officers of the Issuer, although at the date of the execution and delivery of this Indenture
any such person was not such an officer.

 

    	- 11 -

    	 

    

 

Section
2.06 Certificate of Authentication. Only such Securities as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially
in the form hereinbefore recited, executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, shall
be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee upon
any Security executed by the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated
and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 

Section
2.07 Denomination and Date of Securities; Payments of Interest. The Securities shall be issuable as registered securities
without coupons and in denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 2.03. In the absence of any such specification
with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any
multiple thereof. The Securities shall be numbered, lettered, or otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with
such plan as the officers of the Issuer executing the same may determine as evidenced by the execution and authentication thereof.

 

Each
Security shall be dated the date of its authentication, shall bear interest, if any, from the date and shall be payable on the
dates, in each case, which shall be specified as contemplated by Section 2.03.

 

The
person in whose name any Security of any series is registered at the close of business on any record date applicable to a particular
series with respect to any interest payment date for such series shall be entitled to receive the interest, if any, payable on
such interest payment date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Security subsequent to the record date and prior to
such interest payment date, except if and to the extent the Issuer shall default in the payment of the interest due on such interest
payment date for such series, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names Outstanding Securities
for such series are registered at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be not less than five Business
Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer
to the Holders of Securities not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date. The term “record date”
as used with respect to any interest payment date (except a date for payment of defaulted interest) shall mean the date specified
as such in the terms of the Securities of any particular series, or, if no such date is so specified, if such interest payment
date is the first day of a calendar month, the fifteenth day of the next preceding calendar month or, if such interest payment
date is the fifteenth day of a calendar month, the first day of such calendar month, whether or not such record date is a Business
Day.

 

Section
2.08 Registration, Transfer and Exchange. The Issuer will keep or cause to be kept at each office or agency to be maintained
for the purpose as provided in Section 3.02 a register or registers in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may
prescribe, it will register, and will register the transfer of, Securities as in this Article provided. Such register shall be
in written form in the English language or in any other form capable of being converted into such form within a reasonable time.
At all reasonable times such register or registers shall be open for inspection by the Trustee.

 

    	- 12 -

    	 

    

 

At
the option of the Holder thereof, Registered Securities of any series (other than a Registered Global Security, except as set
forth below) may be exchanged for a Registered Security or Registered Securities of such series and tenor having authorized denominations
and an equal aggregate Principal amount, upon surrender of such Registered Securities to be exchanged at the agency of the Issuer
that shall be maintained for such purpose in accordance with Section 3.02 and upon payment, if the Issuer shall so require, of
the charges hereinafter provided. If the Securities of any series are issued in both registered and unregistered form, except
as otherwise established pursuant to Section 2.03, at the option of the Holder thereof, Unregistered Securities of any series
may be exchanged for Registered Securities of such series and tenor having authorized denominations and an equal aggregate Principal
amount, upon surrender of such Unregistered Securities to be exchanged at the agency of the Issuer that shall be maintained for
such purpose in accordance with Section 3.02 and upon payment, if the Issuer shall so require, of the charges hereinafter provided.
At the option of the Holder thereof, if Unregistered Securities of any series, maturity date, interest rate and Original Issue
Date are issued in more than one authorized denomination, except as otherwise established pursuant to Section 2.03, such Unregistered
Securities may be exchanged for Unregistered Securities of such series and tenor having authorized denominations and an equal
aggregate Principal amount, upon surrender of such Unregistered Securities to be exchanged at the agency of the Issuer that shall
be maintained for such purpose in accordance with Section 3.02 and upon payment, if the Issuer shall so require, of the charges
hereinafter provided. Registered Securities of any series may not be exchanged for Unregistered Securities of such series. Whenever
any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available
for delivery, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

 

All
Registered Securities presented for registration of transfer, exchange, redemption, conversion or payment shall be duly endorsed
by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly
executed by, the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

The
Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any exchange or registration of transfer of Securities. No service charge shall be made for any such transaction.

 

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 2.08, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive registered
form, a Registered Global Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as
a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary
or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a
nominee of such successor Depositary.

 

If
at any time the Depositary for any Registered Global Securities of any series notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable
to continue as Depositary for such Registered Global Securities or if at any time the Depositary for such Registered Global Securities
shall no longer be eligible under applicable law, the Issuer shall appoint a successor Depositary eligible under applicable law
with respect to such Registered Global Securities. If a successor Depositary eligible under applicable law for such Registered
Global Securities is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such
ineligibility, the Issuer will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of the Issuer’s order for the authentication and delivery
of definitive Registered Securities of such series and tenor, will authenticate and make available for delivery Registered Securities
of such series and tenor, in any authorized denominations, in an aggregate Principal amount equal to the Principal amount of such
Registered Global Securities, in exchange for such Registered Global Securities.

 

    	- 13 -

    	 

    

 

The
Issuer may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that any Registered Global Securities of any series shall no longer
be maintained in global form. In such event, or in the event that there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default
with respect to a series of Securities, the Issuer will, upon the request of any Holder, execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt
of the Issuer’s order for the authentication and delivery of definitive Registered Securities of such series and tenor,
will authenticate and make available for delivery, Registered Securities of such series and tenor in any authorized denominations,
in an aggregate Principal amount equal to the Principal amount of such Registered Global Securities, in exchange for such Registered
Global Securities.

 

Any
time the Registered Securities of any series are not in the form of Registered Global Securities pursuant to the preceding two
paragraphs, the Issuer agrees to supply the Trustee with a reasonable supply of certificated Registered Securities without the
legend required by Section 2.04 and the Trustee agrees to hold such Registered Securities in safekeeping until authenticated and
delivered pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.

 

If
established by the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03 with respect to any Registered Global Security, the Depositary for such Registered
Global Security may surrender such Registered Global Security in exchange in whole or in part for Registered Securities of the
same series and tenor in definitive registered form on such terms as are acceptable to the Issuer and such Depositary. Thereupon,
the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, without service charge,

 

(i)
to the Person specified by such Depositary new Registered Securities of the same series and tenor, of any authorized denominations
as requested by such Person, in an aggregate Principal amount equal to and in exchange for such Person’s beneficial interest
in the Registered Global Security; and

 

(ii)
to such Depositary a new Registered Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the Principal amount
of the surrendered Registered Global Security and the aggregate Principal amount of Registered Securities authenticated and delivered
pursuant to clause (i) above.

 

Registered
Securities issued in exchange for a Registered Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be registered in such names
and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Registered Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its
direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee or an agent of the Issuer or the Trustee. The Trustee
or such agent shall deliver such Securities to or as directed by the Persons in whose names such Securities are so registered.

 

    	- 14 -

    	 

    

 

All
Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt,
and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

 

Notwithstanding
anything herein or in the forms or terms of any Securities to the contrary, none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the
Issuer or the Trustee shall be required to exchange any Unregistered Security for a Registered Security if such exchange would
result in adverse Federal income tax consequences to the Issuer (such as, for example, the inability of the Issuer to deduct from
its income, as computed for Federal income tax purposes, the interest payable on the Unregistered Securities) under then applicable
United States Federal income tax laws. The Trustee and any such agent shall be entitled to rely on an Officers’ Certificate
or an Opinion of Counsel in determining such result.

 

Neither
the Registrar nor the Issuer shall be required (i) to issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange Securities of
any series for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of such Securities to be redeemed or (ii) to register
the transfer of or exchange any Security selected for redemption in whole or in part.

 

Section
2.09 Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. In case any temporary or definitive Security shall become
mutilated or defaced and shall be surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, a new Security of the same series, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for
the mutilated or defaced Security. If the Holder of any Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Security of the same series, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Security, if
the applicant so requests before the Issuer has notice that the Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, and the applicant
furnishes to the Issuer and to the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required
by them to indemnify and defend and to save each of them harmless and the applicant satisfies other reasonable requirements imposed
by the Issuer.

 

Upon
the issuance of any substitute Security, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its
counsel) connected therewith. In case any Security which has matured or is about to mature or has been called for redemption in
full shall become mutilated or defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may instead of issuing a substitute Security,
pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Security), if
the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee such
security or taking, the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer and the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or wrongful taking of such Security and of the ownership thereof.

 

    	- 15 -

    	 

    

 

Every
substitute Security of any series issued pursuant to the provisions of this section by virtue of the fact that any such Security
is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed,
lost or wrongfully taken Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but
shall be subject to all the limitations of rights set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other
Securities of such series duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Securities shall be held and owned upon the express
condition that, to the extent permitted by law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment
of mutilated, defaced or destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies.

 

Section
2.10 Cancellation of Securities; Destruction Thereof. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, repurchase, conversion,
registration of transfer or exchange, if surrendered to the Issuer or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee, shall be delivered
to the Trustee for cancellation or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be canceled by it; and no Securities shall be issued
in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled
Securities held by it in accordance with the record retention policies of the Trustee in effect from time to time and, if such
canceled certificates are destroyed, shall deliver a certificate of destruction to the Issuer. If the Issuer shall acquire any
of the Securities, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such
Securities unless and until the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

 

Section
2.11 Temporary Securities. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities for any series, the Issuer may execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver temporary Securities for such series (printed, lithographed, typewritten or otherwise
reproduced, in each case in form satisfactory to the Trustee). Temporary Securities of any series shall be issuable as registered
Securities without coupons, of any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive Securities of such
series but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Securities, all as may be determined
by the Issuer with the concurrence of the Trustee. Temporary Securities may contain such reference to any provisions of this Indenture
as may be appropriate. Every temporary Security shall be executed by the Issuer and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same
conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with like effect, as the definitive Securities. Without unreasonable delay
the Issuer shall execute and shall furnish definitive Securities of such series and thereupon temporary Securities of such series
may be surrendered in exchange therefor without charge at each office or agency to be maintained by the Issuer for that purpose
pursuant to Section 3.02, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Securities of such series
a like aggregate Principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged,
the temporary Securities of any series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of
such series.

 

Section
2.12 Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified in the Securities of a series, interest shall be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

    	- 16 -

    	 

    

 

Section
2.13 CUSIP Numbers. The Issuer in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use),
and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that
any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities
or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed
on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will
notify the Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

 

Article
3

COVENANTS OF THE ISSUER AND THE TRUSTEE

 

Section
3.01 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Issuer covenants and agrees for the benefit of each series of Securities that
it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the Principal of, and interest on, each of the Securities of such series at
the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in such Securities. Each installment of interest on the
Securities of any series may be paid by mailing checks for such interest payable to or upon the written order of the Holders of
Securities entitled thereto as they shall appear on the registry books of the Issuer.

 

Notwithstanding
any provisions of this Indenture and the Securities of any series to the contrary, if the Issuer and a Holder of any Registered
Security so agree or if expressly provided pursuant to Section 2.03, payments of interest on, and any portion of the Principal
of, such Holder’s Registered Security shall be made by the paying agent, upon receipt from the Issuer of immediately available
funds by 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or such other time as may be agreed to between the Issuer and the paying agent) or the
Issuer, directly to the Holder of such Security (by wire transfer of Federal funds or immediately available funds or otherwise)
if the Holder has delivered written instructions to the Trustee 15 days prior to such payment date requesting that such payment
will be so made and designating the bank account to which such payments shall be so made and, in the case of payments of Principal,
surrenders the same to the Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the last instruction delivered by the Holder pursuant
to this Section 3.01 unless a new instruction is delivered 15 days prior to a payment date. The Issuer will indemnify and hold
each of the Trustee and any paying agent harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees and
expenses) resulting from any act or omission to act on the part of the Issuer or any such Holder in connection with any such agreement
or from making any payment in accordance with any such agreement.

 

Section
3.02 Offices for Payments, etc. So long as any of the Securities remain outstanding, the Issuer will maintain in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York an office or agency (n) where the Securities may be presented for payment, (o) where the Securities
may be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange as in this Indenture provided, (p) where notices and demands to
or upon the Issuer in respect of the Securities or of this Indenture may be served and (q) for Securities of each series that
is convertible, where such Securities may be presented for conversion. The Issuer will give to the Trustee written notice of the
location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. Unless otherwise specified in accordance with Section
2.03, the Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of Trustee as the office to be maintained by it for each
such purpose. In case the Issuer shall fail to so designate or maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to give such notice
of the location or of any change in the location thereof, presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the
Corporate Trust Office.

 

    	- 17 -

    	 

    

 

Section
3.03 Paying Agents. Whenever the Issuer shall appoint a paying agent other than the Trustee with respect to the Securities
of any series, it will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree
with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section:

 

(a)
that it will hold all sums received by it as such agent for the payment of the Principal of or interest on the Securities of such
series (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Issuer or by any other obligor on the Securities of such series) in trust
for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series or of the Trustee;

 

(b)
that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by the Issuer (or by any other obligor on the Securities of such series) to
make any payment of the Principal of or interest on the Securities of such series when the same shall be due and payable; and
during the continuance of the failure referred to in clause Section 3.03(b) above.

 

The
Issuer will, on or prior to each due date of the Principal of or interest on the Securities of such series, deposit with the paying
agent a sum sufficient to pay such Principal or interest so becoming due, and (unless such paying agent is the Trustee) the Issuer
will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action.

 

If
the Issuer shall act as its own paying agent with respect to the Securities of any Series, it will, on or before each due date
of the Principal of or interest on the Securities of such series, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the
Holders of the Securities of such series a sum sufficient to pay such Principal or interest so becoming due. The Issuer will promptly
notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action.

 

Whenever
the Issuer shall have one or more paying agents for any series of Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the Principal
of or interest on any Securities of such series, deposit with the paying agent or agents for the Securities of such series a sum,
by 11:00 a.m. New York City time in immediately available funds on the payment date, sufficient to pay the Principal or interest
so becoming due with respect to the Securities of such series, and (unless such paying agent is the Trustee) the Issuer will promptly
notify the Trustee in writing of any failure so to act.

 

Anything
in this section to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge
with respect to one or more or all series of Securities hereunder, or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee
all sums held in trust for any such series by the Issuer or any paying agent hereunder, as required by this Section, such sums
to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained.

 

Anything
in this Section 3.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this Section 3.03 is

Section
3.04 Certificate of the Issuer. Within 120 days after the close of the fiscal year ended ●, and within 120 days after
the close of each fiscal year thereafter, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee a brief certificate (which need not comply with
Section 10.05) from the principal executive, financial or accounting officer of the Issuer as to his or her knowledge of the Issuer’s
compliance with all conditions and covenants under the Indenture (such compliance to be determined without regard to any period

At
the time such certificate is filed, the Issuer will also file with the Trustee a letter or statement of the independent accountants
who shall have certified the financial statements of the Issuer for its preceding fiscal year to the effect that, in making the
examination necessary for certification of such financial statements, they have obtained no knowledge of any default by the Issuer
in the performance or fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Indenture, which default remains uncured
at the date of such letter or statement, or, if they shall have obtained knowledge of any such uncured default, specifying in
such letter or statement such default or defaults and the nature and status thereof, it being understood that such accountants
shall not be liable directly or indirectly for failure to obtain knowledge of any such default or defaults, and that nothing contained
in this Section 3.04 shall be construed to require such accountants to make any investigation beyond the scope required in connection
with such examination.

 

Section
3.05 List of Securityholders. If and so long as the Trustee shall not be the Security registrar for the Securities of any
series, the Issuer will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require

of 1939 (a) semi-annually not more than 10 days after each record date for the payment of interest on such Securities, as hereinabove
specified, as of such record date and on dates to be determined pursuant to Section 2.03 for non-interest bearing Securities in
each year and (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Issuer of any
such request as of a date not more than 10 days prior to the time such information is furnished.

 

Section
3.06 Reports by the Issuer. The Issuer covenants to:

 

(a)
file, whether or not required to do so under applicable law, with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Issuer files the same

copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents, and other reports which the Issuer files with the Commission pursuant
to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and

 

(ii)
such additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Issuer with the conditions and covenants
provided for in this Indenture as the Issuer may from time to time file with the Commission; and

 

(b)
transmit to the Securityholders, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.04, such summaries of any information,
documents and reports required to be filed with the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of subdivision (a) of this Section 3.06
as may be required by the rules and regulations of the Commission.

 

    	- 19 -

    	 

    

 

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

 

Section
3.07 Corporate Existence. So long as any of the Securities remain unpaid, the Issuer will at all times (except as otherwise
provided or permitted elsewhere in this Indenture) do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force
and effect its corporate existence.

 

Section
3.08 Restrictions on Mergers, Sales and Consolidations. So long as any of the Securities remain unpaid, the Issuer will
not consolidate or merge with or sell, convey or lease all or substantially all of its property to any other corporation except
as permitted in Article 8 hereof.

 

Section
3.09 Further Assurances. From time to time whenever requested by the Trustee, the Issuer will execute and deliver such
further instruments and assurances and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectually
the purposes of this Indenture or to secure the rights and remedies hereunder of the Holders of the Securities of any series.

(c)
default by the Issuer in the performance, or breach by the Issuer, of any of its covenants or agreements in respect of the Securities

a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a notice of
default hereunder;

 

    	- 20 -

    	 

    

 

(d)
the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Issuer in an involuntary
case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or the appointment of a receiver,
liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Issuer or for any substantial part of the
Issuer’s property and assets or the ordering of the winding up or liquidation of the Issuer’s affairs, and the continuance

by the Issuer for the benefit of creditors; or

 

(f)
any other Event of Default provided in the supplemental indenture or resolution of the Board of Directors under which such series
of Securities is issued or in the form of Security for such series.

 

If
an Event of Default described in clauses 4.01(a), 4.01(b), 4.01(c) or 4.01(f) occurs and is continuing, then, and in each and
every such case, unless the Principal of all of the Securities of such series shall have already become due and payable, either
the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of any affected series then Outstanding
hereunder (each such series voting as a separate class) by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Securityholders),
may declare the entire Principal (or, if the Securities of such series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of
the Principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) of all Securities of such series and the interest accrued
thereon, if any, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable.
If an Event of Default described in clauses Section 4.01(d) or Section 4.01(e) occurs and is continuing, then the Principal amount
of all the Securities then Outstanding and interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be and become immediately due and payable,
without any notice or other action by any Holder or the Trustee, to the full extent permitted by applicable law.

 

    	- 21 -

    	 

    

 

The
foregoing provisions, however, are subject to the condition that if, at any time after the Principal (or, if the Securities are
Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the Principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) of the Securities
of any series (or of all the Securities, as the case may be) shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment
or decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Issuer shall pay
or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest upon all the Securities of such
series (or of all the Securities, as the case may be) and the Principal of any and all Securities of such series (or of all the
Securities, as the case may be) which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such Principal
and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest, at
the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) specified in the
Securities of such series (or at the respective rates of interest or Yields to Maturity of all the Securities, as the case may
be) to the date of such payment or deposit) and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee,
its agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee except
as a result of negligence or bad faith, and if any and all Events of Default under the Indenture, other than the non-payment of
the Principal of Securities which shall have become due by acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as
provided herein, then and in every such case the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal amount of all the then Outstanding
Securities of all such series that have been accelerated, each such series voting as a separate class, by written notice to the
Issuer and to the Trustee, may waive all defaults with respect to such series (or with respect to all the Securities, as the case
may be) and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend
to or shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon.

 

For
all purposes under this Indenture, if a portion of the Principal of any Original Issue Discount Securities shall have been accelerated
and declared due and payable pursuant to the provisions hereof, then, from and after such declaration, unless such declaration
has been rescinded and annulled, the Principal amount of such Original Issue Discount Securities shall be deemed, for all purposes
hereunder, to be such Portion of the Principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, and payment
of such portion of the Principal thereof as shall be due and payable as a result of such acceleration, together with interest,
if any, thereon and all other amounts owing thereunder, shall constitute payment in full of such Original Issue Discount Securities.

 

Section
4.02 Collection of Indebtedness by Trustee; Trustee May Prove Debt. The Issuer covenants that (h) in case default shall
be made in the payment of any installment of interest on any of the Securities of any series when such interest shall have become
due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period of 30 days or (i) in case default shall be made in the payment
of all or any part of the Principal of any of the Securities of any series when the same shall have become due and payable, whether
upon maturity of the Securities of such series or upon any redemption or by declaration or otherwise, then in each case upon demand
of the Trustee, the Issuer will pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of such series (x) the whole
amount that then shall have become due and payable on all Securities of such series for Principal or interest, as the case may
be (with interest to the date of such payment upon the overdue Principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable
under applicable law, on overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the
case of Original Issue Discount Securities) specified in the Securities of such series) and (y) in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable compensation to the Trustee
and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents and counsel, and any expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances
made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of its negligence or bad faith.

 

    	- 22 -

    	 

    

 

Until
such demand is made by the Trustee, the Issuer may pay the Principal of and interest on the Securities of any series to the registered
Holders, whether or not the Principal of and interest on the Securities of such series be overdue.

 

In
case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums
so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment
or final decree against the Issuer or other obligor upon such Securities and collect in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Issuer or other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

 

In
case there shall be pending proceedings relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities under Title 11 of the
United States Code or any other applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver,
assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for
or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor, or in case of any other comparable judicial proceedings
relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Securities of any series, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such
other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the Principal of any Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed
or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of
this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise:

 

(a)
to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of Principal and interest (or, if the Securities of any series are Original
Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the Principal amount as may be specified in the terms of such series) owing and unpaid
in respect of the Securities of any series, and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order
to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee,
and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances
made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence or bad faith) and of the Securityholders allowed
in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Securities of any series, or to the creditors or
property of the Issuer or such other obligor;

 

(b)
unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of the Securities of any series in any election
of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or
person performing similar functions in comparable proceedings; and

 

(c)
to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute all amounts received
with respect to the claims of the Securityholders and of the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver, or liquidator,
custodian or other similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Securityholders to make payments to the Trustee, and,
in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee such
amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective
agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each
predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith and all other amounts due to the Trustee or any predecessor
Trustee pursuant to Section 5.06.

 

    	- 23 -

    	 

    

 

Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf
of any Securityholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities of any series
or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any
such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar person.

 

All
rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Securities, may be enforced by the Trustee
without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof on any trial or other proceedings relative thereto,
and any such action or proceedings instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust,
and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor
Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect
of which such action was taken.

 

In
any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture
to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Securities in respect to
which such action was taken, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of such Securities parties to any such proceedings.

 

Section
4.03 Application of Proceeds. Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article in respect of any series shall
be applied in the following order at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such monies on
account of Principal or interest, upon presentation of the several Securities in respect of which monies have been collected and

compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys and of all expenses and liabilities
incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee except as a result of negligence or bad faith, and
all other amounts due to the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee pursuant to Section 5.06;

 

SECOND:
In case the Principal of the Securities of such series in respect of which monies have been collected shall not have become and
be then due and payable, to the payment of interest on the Securities of such series in default in the order of the maturity of
the installments of such interest, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the
overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue
Discount Securities) specified in such Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the persons entitled thereto, without discrimination
or preference;

 

    	- 24 -

    	 

    

 

THIRD:
In case the Principal of the Securities of such series in respect of which monies have been collected shall have become and shall
be then due and payable, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all the Securities of such series for Principal
and interest, with interest upon the overdue Principal, and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee)
upon overdue installments of interest at the same rate as the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case of Original Issue
Discount Securities) specified in the Securities of such series; and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full
the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the Securities of such series, then to the payment of such Principal and interest or yield
to maturity, without preference or priority of Principal over interest or yield to maturity, or of interest or yield to maturity
over Principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Security of such series over
any other Security of such series, ratably to the aggregate of such Principal and accrued and unpaid interest or yield to maturity;
and

 

FOURTH:
To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Issuer or any other person lawfully entitled thereto.

 

Section
4.04 Suits for Enforcement. In case an Event of Default has occurred, has not been waived and is continuing, the Trustee
may proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture, either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise,
whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any
power granted in this Indenture or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by
law.

 

Section
4.05 Restoration of Rights on Abandonment of Proceedings. In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right
under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined
adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Issuer and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former
positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Securityholders shall continue
as though no such proceedings had been taken.

 

    	- 25 -

    	 

    

 

Section
4.06 Limitations on Suits by Securityholder. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right by virtue or
by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise
upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other
similar official or for any other remedy hereunder, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice
of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of not less than
25% in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of such series then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee
to institute such action or proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as trustee hereunder and shall have
offered to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein
or thereby and the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute
any such action or proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee pursuant
to Section 4.09; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the Holder of every Security with every other
Holder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Securities of any series shall have any right in any manner whatever by
virtue or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holder of
Securities, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder or to enforce any right under
this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Securities
of the applicable series. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Securityholder
and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

 

Section
4.07 Unconditional Right of Securityholders to Institute Certain Suits. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture
and any provision of any Security, the right of any Holder of any Security to receive payment of the Principal of or interest
on such Security on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Security, or to institute suit for the enforcement of
any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

 

Section
4.08 Powers and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver of Default. Except as provided in Section 4.06, no right
or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Securityholders is intended to be exclusive of any other
right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of
any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate
right or remedy.

 

No
delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Securityholder to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring
and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default
or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to Section 4.06, every power and remedy given by this Indenture or by law to the Trustee
or to the Securityholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by
the Securityholders.

 

Section
4.09 Control by Securityholders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of each series
affected (with each series voting as a separate class) at the time outstanding shall have the right to direct the time, method,
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series by this Indenture; provided that such direction shall not be otherwise
than in accordance with law and the provisions of this Indenture and provided further that (subject to the provisions of Section
5.01) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall
determine that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith by its board of
directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee shall determine that
the action or proceedings so directed would subject the Trustee to personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall so
determine that the actions or forbearances specified in or pursuant to such direction would be unduly prejudicial to the interests
of Holders of the Securities of all series so affected not joining in the giving of said direction.

 

    	- 26 -

    	 

    

 

Nothing
in this Indenture shall impair the right of the Trustee to take any action which is not inconsistent with such direction or directions
by Securityholders.

 

Section
4.10 Waiver of Past Defaults. Prior to a declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Securities of any series
as provided in Section 4.01, the Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of such series at the time
Outstanding (each such series voting as a separate class) may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive
an existing default or Event of Default, except a default in the payment of Principal of or interest on any Security as specified
in clauses (a) or (b) of Section 4.01 or in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without
the consent of each Holder affected as provided in Section 7.02. In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Securities of each series affected shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively.

 

Upon
any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist and be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred, and any Event of
Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Indenture; but
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Section
4.11 Trustee to Give Notice of Default, But May Withhold in Certain Circumstances. The Trustee shall give to the Securityholders
of any series, as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the registry books, notice by mail of all defaults known to
Responsible Officers of the Trustee which have occurred with respect to such series, such notice to be transmitted within 90 days
after the occurrence thereof, unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice (the term “default”
or “defaults” for the purposes of this section being hereby defined to mean any event or condition which is, or with
notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default); provided that, except in the case of default in the
payment of the Principal of or interest on any of the Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding
such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors or trustees and/or
Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Securityholders
of such series.

 

Section
4.12 Right of Court to Require Filing of Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder
of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, 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,
suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such
suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 4.12 shall not apply to (i) any suit instituted by the Trustee, (ii)
any suit instituted by any Securityholder or group of Securityholders of any series holding in the aggregate more than 10% in
aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of such series or (iii) any suit instituted by a Holder pursuant to Section 4.07.

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 

Section
5.01 Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee. With respect to the Holders of any series of Securities issued hereunder,
the Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a particular series and after the
curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred with respect to such series, undertakes to perform such duties
and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities
of a series has occurred (which has not been cured or waived) the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested
in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

 

(a)
Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series and after the curing or waiving of
all such Events of Default with respect to such series which may have occurred:

 

(i)
the duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any Series shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as
are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against
the Trustee; and

 

(ii)
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and
the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any statements, certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such statements, certificates or opinions which by any
provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same
to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

 

(b)
No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own

None
of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall
be reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such liability is not reasonably
assured to it.

investigation shall be paid by the Issuer or, if paid by the Trustee or any predecessor trustee, shall be repaid by the Issuer
upon demand;

the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or
within the discretion, rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

 

(i)

at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture;

 

(j)
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; and

Section
5.04 Trustee and Agents May Hold Securities; Collections, etc. The Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee, in
its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same rights it would have if it were
not the Trustee or such agent and may otherwise deal with the Issuer and receive, collect, hold and retain collections from the
Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee or such agent.

 

Section
5.05 Monies Held by Trustee. All monies received by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law. Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall
be under any liability for interest on any monies received by it hereunder.

 

Section
5.06 Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and Its Prior Claim. The Issuer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee
from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation as shall be agreed in writing from time to time by
the Issuer and the Trustee (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an
express trust) and the Issuer covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee upon its request
for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by or on behalf of it in accordance with any of the provisions
of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all agents and
other persons not regularly in its employ) except to the extent any such expense, disbursement or advance may arise from its negligence
or bad faith. The Issuer also covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture
or the trusts hereunder and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against
or investigating any claim of liability (whether asserted by the Issuer, a Holder or any other Person) in the premises, except
to the extent such loss, liability or expense is due to the negligence or bad faith of the Trustee or such predecessor Trustee.
The obligations of the Issuer under this section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and to pay
or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness
hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Such
additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim and lien to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected
by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities, and the Securities
are hereby subordinated to such senior claim. The parties agree that if the Trustee renders services following an Event of Default
under Section 4.01(d) or 4.01(e), compensation for such services is intended to constitute administrative expense under any bankruptcy
law.

Section
5.07 Right of Trustee to Rely on Officers’ Certificate, etc. Subject to Section 5.01 and 5.02, whenever in the administration
of the trusts of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior
to taking or suffering or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and
established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or
bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under
the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

 

Section
5.08 Persons Eligible for Appointment as Trustee. The Trustee for each series of Securities hereunder shall at all times
be a corporation which is eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 and
which has (or which is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, of a bank holding company which has) a combined capital
and surplus of $50,000,000. If such corporation or holding company publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant
to law or to the requirements of a Federal, State or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes
of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or holding company shall be deemed to be its combined capital
and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.

 

Section
5.09 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor Trustee. (a) The Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed,
may at any time resign with respect to one or more or all series of Securities by giving written notice of resignation to the
Issuer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trustees with respect
to the applicable series by written instrument in duplicate, executed by authority of the Board of Directors, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee or trustees. If no successor Trustee
shall have been so appointed with respect to any series and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such
notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Issuer, any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Trustee, or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of the
applicable series for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 4.12, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice,
if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee.

 

(b)
In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

 

(i)
the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 with respect to any
series of Securities after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of
a Security or Securities of such series for at least six months;

 

(ii)
the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 310(a) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939
and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Securityholder; or

 

    	- 32 -

    	 

    

 

(iii)
the Trustee shall become incapable of acting with respect to any series of Securities, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent,
or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control
of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; then, in any such
case, the Issuer may remove the Trustee with respect to the applicable series of Securities and appoint a successor trustee for
such series by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee, or, subject to Section 315(e) of
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security or Securities of such series
for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to such series. Such court may thereupon,
after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

 

(c)
The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time outstanding may at any time
remove the Trustee with respect to Securities of such series and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
such series by delivering to the Trustee so removed, to the successor Trustee so appointed and to the Issuer the evidence provided
in Section 6.01 of the action in that regard taken by the Securityholders.

 

(d)
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee with respect to any series and any appointment of a successor trustee with respect to
such series pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 5.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the
successor trustee as provided in Section 5.10.

 

Section
5.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 5.09 shall execute
and deliver to the Issuer and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee with respect to all or any applicable series shall become effective and such
successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and obligations
with respect to such series of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee for such series hereunder.
On the written request of the Issuer or of the successor Trustee, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, the Trustee ceasing
to act shall, subject to Section 5.06, pay over to the successor Trustee all monies at the time held by it hereunder and shall
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. Upon
request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly
vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights and powers. Any Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless,
retain a prior claim upon all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to
the provisions of Section 5.06.

 

If
a successor Trustee is appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Issuer, the predecessor
Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any applicable series shall execute and deliver an indenture
supplemental hereto which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the predecessor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series as to which the predecessor
Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and shall add to or change any of the provisions
of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one
Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees
of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts under separate indentures.

 

    	- 33 -

    	 

    

 

Upon
acceptance of appointment by any successor Trustee as provided in this Section 5.10, the Issuer shall mail notice thereof by first-class
mail to the Holders of Securities of any series for which such successor Trustee is acting as Trustee at their last addresses
as they shall appear in the Security register. If the acceptance of appointment is substantially contemporaneous with the resignation,
then the notice called for by the preceding sentence may be combined with the notice called for by Section 5.09. If the Issuer
fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall
cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Issuer.

 

Section
5.11 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee. Any corporation into which the Trustee may
be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation
to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions
of Section 5.08, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

In
case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Securities of
any series shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication
of any predecessor Trustee and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and, in case at that time any of the Securities of any
series shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of
any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all such cases such certificate shall have the full
force which it is anywhere in the Securities of such series or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee
shall have; provided, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate
Securities of any series in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion
or consolidation.

 

Section
5.12 Reports to the Trustee. The Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Trustee and its actions
under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto.
If required by Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall, within sixty days after each May 15 following the
date of the initial issuance of Securities under this Indenture deliver to Holders a brief report, dated as of such May 15, which
complies with the provisions of such Section 313(a).

 

A
copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each stock exchange,
if any, upon which the Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Issuer. The Issuer will promptly notify the Trustee
when the Securities are listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof.

CONCERNING
THE SECURITYHOLDERS

 

Section
6.01 Evidence of Action Taken by Securityholders. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by a specified percentage in Principal amount of the Securityholders
of any or all series may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such
specified percentage of Securityholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly
provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee. Proof of execution
of any instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject
to Section 5.01 and 5.02) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Article.

 

Section
6.02 Proof of Execution of Instruments and of Holding of Securities; Record Date. Subject to Section 5.01 and 5.02, the
execution of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy may be proved by the certificate of any notary public or
other officer authorized to take acknowledgment of deeds, that the Person executing such instrument acknowledged to such notary
public or other such officer the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution sworn to before any such
notary public or other officer. Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation or association or a member of a partnership
on behalf of such corporation, association or partnership, as the case may be, or by any other Person acting in a representative
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such Person’s authority. The holding of
Securities shall be proved by the Security register or by a certificate of the registrar thereof. The Issuer may set a record
date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders of Securities of any series entitled to vote or consent to any action
referred to in Section 6.01, which record date may be set at any time or from time to time by notice to the Trustee, for any date
or dates (in the case of any adjournment or reconsideration) not more than 60 days nor less than five days prior to the proposed
date of such vote or consent, and thereafter, notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, only Holders of Securities of such
series of record on such record date shall be entitled to so vote or give such consent or revoke such vote or consent.

 

Section
6.03 Holders to be Treated as Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer,
the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name any Security shall be registered
upon the Security register for such series as the absolute owner of such Security (whether or not such Security shall be overdue
and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account
of the Principal of and, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, interest on such Security and for all other purposes, and
neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
All such payments so made to any such person, or upon his order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid,
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable upon any such Security.

 

    	- 35 -

    	 

    

 

Section
6.04 Securities Owned by Issuer Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate Principal
amount of Outstanding Securities of any or all series have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture,
Securities which are owned by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities with respect to which such determination is being
made or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the
Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities with respect to which such determination is being made shall be disregarded and
deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the
Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver only Securities as to which the Trustee has received
written notice are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded
as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect
to such Securities and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Securities or any person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Issuer or any other obligor on the Securities.
In case of a dispute as to such right, the advice of counsel shall be full protection in respect of any decision made by the Trustee
in accordance with such advice. Upon request of the Trustee, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officers’
Certificate listing and identifying all Securities, if any, known by the Issuer to be owned or held by or for the account of any
of the above-described persons; and, subject to Section 5.01 and 5.02, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’
Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Securities not listed therein are Outstanding
for the purpose of any such determination.

 

Section
6.05 Right of Revocation of Action Taken. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided
in Section 6.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities
of any or all series, as the case may be, specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Security
the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included among the serial numbers of the Securities the Holders of which
have consented to such action may, by filing written notice at the Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided
in this Article, revoke such action so far as concerns such Security. Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the Holder
of any Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Security and of
any Securities issued in exchange or substitution therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made
upon any such Security. Any action taken by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities of any
or all series, as the case may be, specified in this Indenture in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon
the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of all the Securities affected by such action.

Issuer shall mail a notice thereof by first class mail to the Holders of Securities of each series affected thereby at their addresses
as they shall appear on the registry books of the Issuer, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture.

CONSOLIDATION,
MERGER, SALE OR CONVEYANCE

 

Section
8.01 Issuer May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. The Issuer covenants that it will not merge or consolidate with any
other Person or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property and assets to any
Person (other than a consolidation with or merger with or into or a sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition to
a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary with a positive net worth; provided that, in connection with any such merger of the Issuer with
a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, no consideration (other than common stock) in the surviving person or the Issuer shall be issued or
distributed to the stockholders of the Issuer), unless (xiv) either (x) the Issuer shall be the continuing corporation, or the
successor corporation or (y) the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Issuer is merged or that acquires by sale
or conveyance substantially all the assets of the Issuer (if other than the Issuer) shall be a corporation or limited liability
company organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America or any jurisdiction thereof and shall expressly

by the Issuer, by supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee by such Person, (xv)
immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and
(xvi) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that such
consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture complies with this Section 8.01 and that all conditions precedent
provided for herein relating to such transaction have been complied with; provided, however, that the foregoing
limitations shall not apply if, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be evidenced
by a board resolution certified to the Trustee, the principal purpose of such transaction is to change the state of incorporation
of the Issuer; and provided further that any such transaction shall not have as one of its purposes the evasion of the
foregoing limitations.

 

Section
8.02 Successor Corporation Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or
other disposition, and following such an assumption by the successor Person, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted

either in its own name or in the name of the Issuer prior to such succession any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which
theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor Person
instead of the Issuer and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee, pursuant
to the terms hereof, shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered
by the officers of the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities which such successor Person thereafter shall
cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All of the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the
same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms
of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities.

payable by the Trustee, to pay Principal of and interest on the Securities of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case
may be, and to pay all other sums payable by it hereunder and (C) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate

entitled to such money must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors unless an abandoned property law designates another
Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

REDEMPTION
OF SECURITIES

 

Section
11.01 Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to the Securities of any series which
are redeemable before their maturity except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for Securities of such series.

 

Section
11.02 Notice of Redemption; Partial Redemptions. Notice of redemption to the Holders of Securities of any series to be
redeemed as a whole or in part at the option of the Issuer shall be given by mailing notice of such redemption by first class
mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to such Holders of Securities
of such series at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the registry books. Any notice which is mailed in the manner
herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. Failure
to give notice by mail, or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security of a series designated for redemption as a whole
or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Security of such series.

 

The
notice of redemption to each such Holder shall specify the CUSIP numbers of such Securities to be redeemed, the Principal amount
of each Security of such series held by such Holder to be redeemed, the date fixed for redemption, the redemption price, the place
or places of payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities, that interest accrued to the
date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in such notice and that on and after said date interest thereon or on the
portions thereof to be redeemed will cease to accrue. In case any Security of a series is to be redeemed in part only the notice
of redemption shall state the portion of the Principal amount thereof to be redeemed, the method the Trustee shall use to determine
such Securities to be redeemed as specified in the last paragraph of this Section 11.02, if applicable, and shall state that on
and after the date fixed for redemption, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in Principal
amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued.

 

The
notice of redemption of Securities of any series to be redeemed at the option of the Issuer shall be given by the Issuer or, at
the Issuer’s written request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer.

 

By
11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption given as provided in this Section,
the Issuer will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more paying agents (or, if the Issuer is acting as its own paying agent,
set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 3.03) an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the redemption
date all the Securities of such series so called for redemption at the appropriate redemption price, together with accrued interest
to the date fixed for redemption. If less than all the outstanding Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Issuer will
deliver to the Trustee at least 70 days (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the date fixed
for redemption an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate Principal amount of Securities to be redeemed.

 

    	- 47 -

    	 

    

 

In
the case of the redemption of all of the Securities of a series outstanding, the Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of
the redemption date 45 days (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the redemption date.

 

If
less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select, pro rata or by lot or in such manner as
it shall deem appropriate and fair, Securities of such series to be redeemed in whole or in part. Securities of a series may be
redeemed in part in multiples equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of such series or any multiple thereof.
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Securities of such series selected for redemption and, in the case
of any Securities of such series selected for partial redemption, the Principal amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes
of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities of any series
shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the Principal amount of such
Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

 

Section
11.03 Payment of Securities Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given as above provided, the Securities
or portions of Securities specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice
at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption, and on and after said date
(unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of such Securities at the redemption price, together with interest accrued to
said date) interest on the Securities or portions of Securities so called for redemption shall cease to accrue and, except as
provided in Section 5.05 and 9.04, such Securities shall cease from and after the date fixed for redemption to be entitled to
any benefit or security under this Indenture, and the Holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such Securities except
the right to receive the redemption price thereof and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption. On presentation and surrender
of such Securities at a place of payment specified in said notice, said Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be
paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for
redemption; provided that any semiannual payment of interest becoming due on the date fixed for redemption shall be payable to
the Holders of such Securities registered as such on the relevant record date subject to the terms and provisions of Section 2.07
hereof.

 

If
any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Principal shall, until paid
or duly provided for, bear interest from the date fixed for redemption at the rate of interest or Yield to Maturity (in the case
of an Original Issue Discount Security) borne by the Security.

 

Upon
presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to
or on the order of the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Issuer, a new Security or Securities of such series, of authorized
denominations, in Principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented, pursuant to Section 2.04, 2.05
and 2.06.

Section
11.04 Exclusion of Certain Securities from Eligibility for Selection for Redemption. Securities shall be excluded from
eligibility for selection for redemption if they are identified by registration and certificate number in a written statement
signed by an authorized officer of the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee at least 40 days prior to the last date on which notice
of redemption may be given as being owned of record and beneficially by, and not pledged or hypothecated by either (a) the Issuer
or (b) an entity specifically identified in such written statement directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Issuer.

 

Section
11.05 Conversion Arrangement On Call For Redemption. In connection with any redemption of Securities, the Issuer shall
deposit the amount due in connection with such redemption as required by Section 11.02 or it may arrange for the purchase and
conversion of any Securities called for redemption by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to
purchase such Securities and to make the deposit required of it by Section 11.02 on its behalf by paying to the Trustee or the
Paying Agent in trust for the Securityholders, on or before 10:00 a.m. New York time on the redemption date, an amount no less
than the redemption price, together with interest, if any, accrued to the redemption date of such Securities, in immediately available
funds. Notwithstanding anytime to the contrary contained in this Article 11, the obligation of the Issuer to pay the redemption
price of such Securities, including all accrued interest, if any, shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent
such amount is so paid by such purchasers. If such an agreement is entered into, any Securities not duly surrendered for conversion
by the Holders thereof may, at the option of the Issuer, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such purchasers
from such Holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article 12) surrendered by such purchasers for conversion,
all as of immediately prior to the close of business on the last day on which Securities of such series called for redemption
may be converted in accordance with this Indenture and the terms of such Securities, subject to payment of the above amount aforesaid.
The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall hold and pay to the Securityholders whose Securities are selected for redemption any such
amount paid to it in the same manner as it would monies deposited with it by the Issuer for the redemption of Securities. Without
the Trustee’s and the Paying Agent’s prior written consent, no arrangement between the Issuer and such purchasers
for the purchase and conversion of any Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, responsibilities
or obligations of the Trustee as set forth in this Indenture, and the Issuer agrees to indemnify the Trustee from, and hold it
harmless against, any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and
conversion of any Securities between the Issuer and such purchasers, including the costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee
and the Paying Agent in the defense of any claim or liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance
of any of its powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Indenture.

 

Article
12

CONVERSION
OF SECURITIES

 

Section
12.01 Applicability of Article. Securities of any series which are convertible into Capital Stock at the option of the
Securityholder shall be convertible in accordance with their terms and (unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section
2.03 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. Each reference in this Article 12 to “a Security”
or “the Securities” refers to the Securities of the particular series that is convertible into Capital Stock. Each
reference in this Article to “Capital Stock” into which Securities of any series are convertible refers to the class
of Capital Stock into which the Securities of such series are convertible in accordance with their terms (as specified as contemplated
by Section 2.03). If more than one series of Securities with conversion privileges are outstanding at any time, the provisions
of this Article 12 shall be applied separately to each such series.

 

    	- 49 -

    	 

    

 

Section
12.02 Right of Securityholders to Convert Securities. Subject to and upon compliance with the terms of the Securities and
the provisions of Section 11.05 and this Article 12, at the option of the Holder thereof, any Security of any series of any authorized
denomination, or any portion of the Principal amount thereof which is $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000, may, at any time
during the period specified in the Securities of such series, or in case such Security or portion thereof shall have been called
for redemption, then in respect of such Security or portion thereof until and including, but not after (unless the Issuer shall
default in payment due upon the redemption thereof) the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date fixed for redemption
except that in the case of redemption at the option of the Securityholder, if specified in the terms of such Securities, such
right shall terminate upon receipt of written notice of the exercise of such option, be converted into duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Capital Stock, as specified in such Security, at the conversion rate for each $1,000
Principal amount of Securities (such initial conversion rate reflecting an initial conversion price specified in such Security)
in effect on the conversion date, or, in case an adjustment in the conversion rate has taken place pursuant to the provisions
of Section 12.05, then at the applicable conversion rate as so adjusted, upon surrender of the Security or Securities, the Principal
amount of which is so to be converted, to the Issuer at any time during usual business hours at the office or agency to be maintained
by it in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02, accompanied by a written notice of election to convert as provided in
Section 12.03 and, if so required by the Issuer and the Trustee, by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. All Securities
surrendered for conversion shall, if surrendered to the Issuer or any conversion agent, be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation
and cancelled by it, or shall, if surrendered to the Trustee, be cancelled by it, as provided in Section 2.10.

 

The
initial conversion price or conversion rate in respect of a series of Securities shall be as specified in the Securities of such
series. The conversion price or conversion rate will be subject to adjustment on the terms set forth in Section 12.05 or such
other or different terms, if any, as may be specified by Section 2.03 for Securities of such series. Provisions of this Indenture
that apply to conversion of all of a Security also apply to conversion of a portion of it.

 

Section
12.03 Issuance of Shares of Capital Stock on Conversion. As promptly as practicable after the surrender, as herein provided,
of any Security or Securities for conversion, the Issuer shall deliver or cause to be delivered at its said office or agency to
or upon the written order of the Holder of the Security or Securities so surrendered a certificate or certificates representing
the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Capital Stock into which such Security or
Securities may be converted in accordance with the terms thereof and the provisions of this Article 12. Prior to delivery of such
certificate or certificates, the Issuer shall require a written notice at its said office or agency from the Holder of the Security
or Securities so surrendered stating that the Holder irrevocably elects to convert such Security or Securities, or, if less than
the entire Principal amount thereof is to be converted, stating the portion thereof to be converted. Such notice shall also state
the name or names (with address and social security or other taxpayer identification number) in which said certificate or certificates
are to be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the time that such Security or Securities shall have been
surrendered for conversion and such notice shall have been received by the Issuer or the Trustee, the rights of the Holder of
such Security or Securities as a Securityholder shall cease at such time, the person or persons entitled to receive the shares
of Capital Stock upon conversion of such Security or Securities shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record
holder or holders of such shares of Capital Stock at such time and such conversion shall be at the conversion rate in effect at
such time. In the case of any Security of any series which is converted in part only, upon such conversion, the Issuer shall execute
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, as requested by such Holder, a new Security or Securities
of such series of authorized denominations in aggregate Principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of such Security.

 

    	- 50 -

    	 

    

 

If
the last day on which a Security may be converted is not a Business Day in a place where a conversion agent is located, the Security
may be surrendered to that conversion agent on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day.

 

The
Issuer will not be required to deliver certificates for shares of Capital Stock upon conversion while its stock transfer books
are closed for a meeting of shareholders or for the payment of dividends or for any other purpose, but certificates for shares
of Capital Stock shall be delivered as soon as the stock transfer books shall again be opened.

 

Section
12.04 No Payment or Adjustment for Interest or Dividends. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for
Securities of such series, Securities surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any regular record
date (or special record date for payment of defaulted interest) next preceding any interest payment date to the opening of business
on such interest payment date (except Securities called for redemption on a redemption date within such period) when surrendered
for conversion must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest thereon which the registered Holder is to receive
on such interest payment date. Payment of interest shall be made, as of such interest payment date or such date, as the case may
be, to the Holder of record of the Securities as of such regular, or special record date, as applicable. Except where Securities
surrendered for conversion must be accompanied by payment as described above, no interest on converted Securities will be payable
by the Issuer on any interest payment date subsequent to the date of conversion. No other payment or adjustment for interest or
dividends is to be made upon conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon conversion of any Original Issue Discount Security,
the fixed number of shares of Capital Stock into which such Security is convertible delivered by the Issuer to the Holder thereof
shall be applied, first, to pay the accrued original issue discount attributable to the period from the date of issuance to the
date of conversion of such Security, and, second, to pay the balance of the Principal amount of such Security.

 

Section
12.05 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. Unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.03 for Securities of such
series, the conversion rate for Securities in effect at any time shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

 

    	- 51 -

    	 

    

 

(a)
In case the Issuer shall (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on the class of Capital Stock into which Securities of
such series are convertible in shares of its Capital Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding shares of the class of Capital Stock
into which Securities of such series are convertible into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine the outstanding shares of
the class of Capital Stock into which Securities of such series are convertible into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issue
by reclassification of the shares of the class of Capital Stock into which Securities of such series are convertible (including
any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Issuer is the continuing corporation) any
shares, the conversion rate for the Securities of such series in effect at the time of the record subdivision, combination or
reclassification, shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder of any Security of such series surrendered for conversion
after such time shall be entitled to receive the number and kind of shares which he would have owned or have been entitled to
receive had such Security been converted immediately prior to such time. Similar adjustments shall be made whenever any event
listed above shall occur.

 

(b)
In case the Issuer shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights or warrants to all holders of the class of Capital Stock
into which Securities of such series are convertible entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after such record date)
to subscribe for or purchase shares of such class of Capital Stock (or securities convertible into shares of such class of Capital
Stock) at a price per share (or, in the case of a right or warrant to purchase securities convertible into such class of Capital
Stock, having a conversion price per share, after adding thereto the exercise price, computed on the basis of the maximum number
of shares of such class of Capital Stock issuable upon conversion of such convertible securities, per share of such class of Capital
Stock, so issuable) less than the current market price per share of such class of Capital Stock (as defined in subsection (e)
below) on the date on which such issuance was declared or otherwise announced by the Issuer (the “Determination Date”),
the number of shares of such class of Capital Stock into which each $1,000 Principal amount of Securities shall be convertible
after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of such class of Capital Stock into which such
Principal amount of Securities was convertible immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall
be the number of shares of such class of Capital Stock outstanding on the Determination Date plus the number of additional shares
of such class of Capital Stock offered for subscription or purchase (or in the case of a right or warrant to purchase securities
convertible into such class of Capital Stock, the aggregate number of additional shares of such class of Capital Stock into which
the convertible securities so offered are initially convertible), and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of
such class of Capital Stock outstanding on the Determination Date plus the number of shares of such class of Capital Stock obtained
by dividing the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered (or, in the case of a right or warrant to purchase
securities convertible into such class of Capital Stock, the aggregate initial conversion price of the convertible securities
so offered, after adding thereto the aggregate exercise price of such rights or warrants computed on the basis of the maximum
number of shares of such class of Capital Stock issuable upon conversion of such convertible securities) by such current market
price. Shares of such class of Capital Stock of the Issuer owned by or held for the account of the Issuer shall not be deemed
outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is
fixed; and to the extent that shares of such class of Capital Stock are not delivered (or securities convertible into shares of
such class of Capital Stock are not delivered) after the expiration of such rights or warrants (or, in the case of rights or warrants
to purchase securities convertible into such class of Capital Stock once exercised, the expiration of the conversion right of
such securities) the conversion rate shall be readjusted to the conversion rate which would then be in effect had the adjustments
made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants (or securities convertible into shares) been made upon the basis of delivery
of only the number of shares actually delivered. In the event that such rights or warrants are not so issued, the conversion rate
shall again be adjusted to be the conversion rate which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed.

 

    	- 52 -

    	 

    

 

(c)
In case the Issuer shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the class of Capital Stock into
which Securities of such series are convertible (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger
in which the Issuer is the continuing corporation) of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (excluding any cash dividends paid
from retained earnings and dividends payable in Capital Stock for which adjustment is made pursuant to subsection (a) above or
(d) below) or subscription rights or warrants (excluding subscription rights or warrants to purchase the class of Capital Stock
into which Securities of such series are convertible), the number of shares of such class of Capital Stock into which each $1,000
Principal amount of Securities of such series shall be convertible after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the
number of shares of such class of Capital Stock into which such Principal amount of Securities was convertible immediately prior
to such record date by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the fair market value of the assets of the Issuer, after deducting
therefrom all liabilities of the Issuer and all preferences (including accrued but unpaid dividends) in respect of classes of
Capital Stock having a preference with respect to the assets of the Issuer over such class of Capital Stock (all as determined
by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a certificate signed by chairman of the Issuer’s
Board of Directors, its president, any vice president, its treasurer, any assistant treasurer, its secretary or any assistant
secretary, filed with the Trustee and each conversion agent) on such record date, and of which the denominator shall be such fair
market value after deducting therefrom such liabilities and preferences, less the fair market value (as determined by the Board
of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a statement filed with the Trustee and each conversion
agent) of the assets or evidences of indebtedness, so distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable, so distributed.
Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such distribution is not
so made, the conversion rate shall again be adjusted to the conversion rate which would then be in effect if such record date
had not been fixed.

 

(d)
In case the Issuer shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Capital Stock cash (excluding any dividend
or distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary),
then, in such case, unless the Issuer elects to reserve such cash for distribution to the Holders of the Securities upon the conversion
of the Securities so that any such Holder converting Securities will receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of
Capital Stock to which such Holder is entitled, the amount of cash which such Holder would have received if such Holder had, immediately
prior to the record date for such distribution of cash, converted its Securities into Capital Stock, the conversion rate shall
be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to
the record date by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the current market price of the Capital Stock (determined as provided
in Section 12.05(e) on the record date less the amount of cash so distributed (and not excluded as provided above) applicable
to one share of Capital Stock and the numerator shall be such current market price of the Capital Stock (determined as provided
in Section 12.05(e)), such adjustment to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the record
date; provided, however, that in the event the portion of the cash so distributed applicable to one share of Capital Stock is
equal to or greater than the current market price of the Capital Stock (determined as provided in Section 12.05(e)) on the record
date, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Securityholder shall have the right to
receive upon conversion the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder converted each Security on the record
date. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid or made, the conversion rate shall again be adjusted to be the conversion
rate which would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

 

    	- 53 -

    	 

    

 

(e)
For the purpose of any computation under subsections (b) and (d) above and Section 12.06, the current market price per share of
the Capital Stock on any date as of which such price is to be computed shall mean the average of the Closing Prices for the 30
consecutive Business Days commencing 45 Business Days before such date.

 

(f)
No adjustment in the conversion rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require a cumulative increase or decrease
of at least 1% in such rate; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this subsection (f) are
not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; and provided further,
that adjustments shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this Article 12 (other than this subsection (f))
not later than such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a States income tax purposes to the Holders
of Securities or the class of Capital Stock into which such Securities are convertible. All calculations under this Article 12
shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-thousandth of a share, as the case may be. Anything in this Section 12.05
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuer shall be entitled to make such adjustments in the conversion rate, in addition to
those required by this Section 12.05, as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock dividend,
subdivision of shares, distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities, or distribution of securities convertible into
or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Issuer to its shareholders shall not be taxable for United States income tax purposes.

 

(g)
Whenever the conversion rate is adjusted, as herein provided, the Issuer shall promptly file with the Trustee and with the office
or agency maintained by the Issuer for the conversion of Securities of such series pursuant to Section 3.02, a certificate of
a firm of independent public accountants of recognized national standing selected by the Board of Directors (who may be the regular
accountants employed by the Issuer) setting forth the conversion rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment and a computation thereof. Such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness
of such adjustment. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any
such certificate or any facts or computations set forth therein, except to exhibit said certificate from time to time to any Securityholder
of such series desiring to inspect the same. The Issuer shall promptly cause a notice setting forth the adjusted conversion rate
to be mailed to the Holders of Securities of such series, as their names and addresses appear upon the register of the Issuer.

 

    	- 54 -

    	 

    

 

(h)
In the event that at any time, as a result of shares of any other class of Capital Stock becoming issuable in exchange or substitution
for or in lieu of shares of the class of Capital Stock into which such Securities are convertible or as a result of an adjustment
made pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Holder of any Security of such series thereafter surrendered for conversion shall become
entitled to receive any shares of the Issuer other than shares of the class of Capital Stock into which the Issuer of such series
are convertible, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of any Security shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the
class of Capital Stock into which the Securities of such series are convertible contained in subsections (a) to (f), inclusive,
above, and the provisions of this Article 12 with respect to the class of Capital Stock into which the Securities of such series
are convertible shall apply on like terms to any such other shares.

 

(i)
The conversion rate with respect to any Original Issue Discount Security, the terms of which provide for convertibility, shall
not be adjusted during the term of such Original Issue Discount Security for accrued original issue discount.

 

(j)
In the event that the Securities of any series are convertible into more than one class of Capital Stock, the provisions of this
Section 12.05 shall apply separately to events affecting each such class.

 

Section
12.06 No Fractional Shares to Be Issued. No fractional shares of Capital Stock shall be issued upon conversions of Securities.
If more than one Security of any series shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full
shares which shall be issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Principal amount of the
Securities of such series (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. Instead of a fraction
of a share of Capital Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Security or Securities (or specified portions
thereof), the Issuer shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction of a share in an amount equal to the same fractional
interest of the current market price (as defined in Section 12.05) per share of Capital Stock on the Business Day next preceding
the day of conversion.

 

Section
12.07 Preservation of Conversion Rights Upon Consolidation, Merger, Sale or Conveyance. In case of any consolidation of
the Issuer with, or merger of the Issuer into, any other corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Issuer
is the continuing corporation), or in the case of any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer,
the corporation formed by such consolidation or the corporation into which the Issuer shall have been merged or the corporation
which shall have acquired such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee, a supplemental indenture,
subject to the provisions of Article 7 and 8 as they relate to supplemental indentures, providing that the Holder of each Security
then Outstanding of a series which was convertible into Capital Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such Security
into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property, including cash, receivable upon such consolidation,
merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the number of shares of Capital Stock of the Issuer into which such Securities might have
been converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such supplemental indenture shall conform to
the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as then in effect and shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 12. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent
shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provision contained in any such supplemental indenture relating
either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or other securities or property receivable by Securityholders upon the conversion
of their Securities after any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, or to any adjustment to be made with respect there
to and, subject to the provisions of Article 5, may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and
shall be protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel with respect thereto. If in the case of any such consolidation, merger,
sale or transfer, the stock or other securities and property receivable by a Holder of the Securities includes stock or other
securities and property of a corporation other than the successor or purchasing corporation, then such supplemental indenture
shall also be executed by such other corporation and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the
Holders of the Securities as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary. The above provisions of this Section
12.07 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or transfers.

 

    	- 55 -

    	 

    

 

Section
12.08 Notice to Security Holders of a Series Prior to Taking Certain Types of Action. With respect to the Securities of
any series, in case:

 

(a)
the Issuer shall authorize the issuance to all holders of the class of Capital Stock into which Securities of such series are
convertible of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of its Capital Stock or of any other right;

 

(b)
the Issuer shall authorize the distribution to all holders of the class of Capital Stock into which Securities of such series
are convertible of evidences of its indebtedness or assets (except for the exclusions with respect to certain dividends set forth
in Section 12.05(c));

 

(c)
of any subdivision, combination or reclassification of the class of Capital Stock into which Securities of such series are convertible
or of any consolidation or merger to which the Issuer is a party and for which approval by the shareholders of the Issuer is required,
or of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer; or

 

(d)
of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Issuer;

 

then
the Issuer shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and at the office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of Securities
of such series pursuant to Section 3.02, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holders of Securities of such series, at their last
addresses as they shall appear upon the register of the Issuer, at least 10 days prior to the applicable record date hereinafter
specified, a notice stating (i) the date as of which the holders of such class of Capital Stock to be entitled to receive any
such rights, warrants or distribution are to be determined, or (ii) the date on which any such subdivision, combination, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other action is expected to become effective, and
the date as of which it is expected that holders of record of such class of Capital Stock shall be entitled to exchange their
Capital Stock of such class for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such subdivision, combination, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other action. The failure to give the notice required
by this Section 12.08 or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of any distribution, right, warrant, subdivision,
combination, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other action, or
the vote upon any of the foregoing. Such notice shall also be published by and at the expense of the Issuer not later than the
aforesaid filing date at least once in an Authorized Newspaper.

 

    	- 56 -

    	 

    

 

Section
12.09 Covenant to Reserve Shares for Issuance on Conversion of Securities. The Issuer covenants that at all times it will
reserve and keep available out of each class of its authorized Capital Stock, free from preemptive rights, solely for the purpose
of issue upon conversion of Securities of any series as herein provided, such number of shares of Capital Stock of such class
as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all Outstanding Securities of such series. The Issuer covenants that an shares
of Capital Stock which shall be so issuable shall, when issued or delivered, be duly and validly issued shares of the class of
authorized Capital Stock into which Securities of such series are convertible, and shall be fully paid and nonassessable, free
of all liens and charges and not subject to preemptive rights and that, upon conversion, the appropriate capital stock accounts
of the Issuer will be duly credited.

 

Section
12.10 Compliance with Governmental Requirements. The Issuer covenants that if any shares of Capital Stock required to be
reserved for purposes of conversion of Securities hereunder require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental
authority under any Federal or State law, pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, or any national or regional securities exchange on which such Capital Stock is listed at the time of delivery
of any shares of such Capital Stock, before such shares may be issued upon conversion, the Issuer will use reasonable efforts
to cause such shares to be duly registered, listed or approved, as the case may be.

 

Section
12.11 Payment of Taxes Upon Certificates for Shares Issued Upon Conversion. The issuance of certificates for shares of
Capital Stock upon the conversion of Securities shall be made without charge to the converting Securityholders for any tax (including,
without limitation, all documentary and stamp taxes) in respect of the issuance and delivery of such certificates, and such certificates
shall be issued in the respective names of, or in such names as may be directed by, the Holders of the Securities converted; provided,
however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issuance and delivery of any such certificate in a name other than that of the Holder of the Security converted, and the Issuer
shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof
shall have paid to the Issuer the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such tax
has been paid.

 

Section
12.12 Trustee’s Duties with Respect to Conversion Provisions. The Trustee and any conversion agent shall not at any
time be under any duty or responsibility to any Securityholder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment
of the conversion rate or conversion price, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with
respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. Neither
the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be accountable with respect to the registration under securities laws, listing, validity
or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Capital Stock, or of any other securities or property, which may at any time
be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Security; and neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent makes any representation
with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any conversion agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Issuer to make
any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of stock or stock certificates or other securities or property upon
the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion; and the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article 5, and any
conversion agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the Issuer to comply with any of the covenants of the Issuer contained
in this Article 12.

1.
Interest.

 

CORBUS
PHARMACEUTICALS HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), promises to pay interest on the Principal amount
of this Security at the rate per annum shown above. Cash interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from ●. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on
each Interest Payment Date, commencing ●. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

The
Issuer shall pay interest on overdue Principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Securities and on overdue
installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful.

 

2.
Method of Payment.

 

The
Issuer shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are the registered Holders at the close
of business on the Interest Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange
of such Security subsequent to such Interest Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Securities
to the Trustee to collect Principal payments. The Issuer shall pay Principal and interest in money of the United States that at
the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”). However,
the payments of interest, and any portion of the Principal (other than interest payable at maturity or on any redemption or repayment
date or the final payment of Principal) shall be made by the Paying Agent, upon receipt from the Issuer of immediately available
funds by 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or such other time as may be agreed to between the Issuer and the Paying Agent or the
Issuer), directly to a Holder (by Federal funds wire transfer or otherwise) if the Holder has delivered written instructions to
the Trustee 15 days prior to such payment date requesting that such payment will be so made and designating the bank account to
which such payments shall be so made and in the case of payments of Principal surrenders the same to the Trustee in exchange for
a Security or Securities aggregating the same principal amount as the unredeemed Principal amount of the Securities surrendered.

 

3.
Paying Agent.

 

Initially,
● (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent without notice to
the Holders.

 

    	- 1 -

    	 

    

 

4.
Indenture.

 

The
Issuer issued the Securities under an Indenture, dated as of ● (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer
and the Trustee. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the
Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act
of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture until such
time as the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect on the date on which the Indenture is qualified
under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Securities
are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Security
are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

 

5.
Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

 

The
Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and multiples of $1,000. A Holder shall register
the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Issuer may require a Holder, among other things,
to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable
in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange
any Securities or portions thereof for a period of fifteen (15) days before such series is selected for redemption, nor need the
Issuer register the transfer or exchange of any security selected for redemption in whole or in part.

 

6.
Persons Deemed Owners.

 

The
registered Holder of a Security shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

 

7.
Unclaimed Funds.

 

If
funds for the payment of Principal or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will repay the
funds to the Issuer at its written request. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such
funds shall cease.

 

8.
Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance.

 

The
Issuer may be discharged from its obligations under the Securities and under the Indenture with respect to the Securities except
for certain provisions thereof, and may be discharged from obligations to comply with certain covenants contained in the Securities
and in the Indenture with respect to the Securities, in each case upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture.

 

9.
Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

 

Subject
to certain exceptions, the Securities and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Securities may be amended or supplemented
with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities then outstanding,
and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the consent of the Holders
of a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the
parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities or comply with any
requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, or make any
other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Security.

10.
Defaults and Remedies.

 

If
an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal amount of Securities then outstanding may declare all of the Securities
to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If a bankruptcy Event of Default
with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, all the Securities shall be immediately due and payable immediately in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture without any notice or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.
Holders of Securities may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not
obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it has received indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits,
subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal amount of the Securities then outstanding
to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Securities notice of certain
continuing Defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

 

11.
Conversion.

 

Reference
is made to the Indenture, including, without limitation, provisions giving the Holder of this Security the right to convert this
Security into Capital Stock of the Issuer on the terms and subject to the limitations as more fully specified in the Indenture.
The initial conversion rate for this Security is ●. This conversion rate is subject to modification as provided in the Indenture.
Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

 

12.
Trustee Dealings with Issuer.

 

The
Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise
deal with the Issuer as if it were not the Trustee.

 

13.
No Recourse Against Others.

 

No
stockholder, director, officer, employee or incorporator, as such, of the Issuer or any successor Person thereof shall have any
liability for any obligation under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. Each Holder of a Security by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver
and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities.

14.

This
Security shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Security.

(= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian),
