Statement (the “Initial Shelf Registration Statement”) for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Holders thereof of all of
the Registrable Securities. The Initial Shelf Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement if the Company at the time of filing is eligible to use such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Form S-3 and the
Company reasonably expects to remain eligible to use such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement during the Effectiveness Period. If the Company is not eligible to file an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, the Initial Shelf Registration
Statement shall be on Form S-1 or Form S-3 or another appropriate form and shall provide 

  

 3 

 
for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the
Holders. The Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause the Initial Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event by February 26, 2008
(the “Effectiveness Deadline Date”) and (ii) keep the Initial Shelf Registration Statement (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) continuously effective under the Securities Act until the expiration of the
Effectiveness Period. At the time the Initial Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, each Holder that became a Notice Holder on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day before the date of such effectiveness shall be named as a selling securityholder in the Initial Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to
deliver such Prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) If any Shelf
Registration Statement ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to promptly cause such Shelf Registration Statement to
become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement), and in any event shall, within thirty (30) days of such cessation of
effectiveness, (i) amend such Shelf Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement or (ii) file an additional Registration
Statement (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Holders thereof of all
securities that are Registrable Securities as of the time of such filing. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Issuers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to (A) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration
Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such filing, but in no event later than the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement Effectiveness Deadline Date and (B) keep such Subsequent
Shelf Registration Statement (or another Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) continuously effective until the end of the Effectiveness Period. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement
to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Form S-3 and the Company reasonably expects to remain eligible to use such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement during the Effectiveness
Period. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-1 or Form S-3 or another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders in accordance with any
reasonable method of distribution elected by the Holders. 
 (c) The Issuers shall supplement and amend any Shelf Registration
Statement if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act or as reasonably requested by the Initial Purchaser or
by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (d) (i) Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that, if such Holder wishes to
sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus, it will do so only in accordance with this Section 2(d) and Section 3(i). Each Holder of Registrable Securities wishing to sell Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus agrees to deliver a completed and executed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company prior to any attempted or actual distribution of Registrable Securities under a Shelf
Registration Statement. If a Holder becomes a Notice Holder after the fifth (5th) Business Day before the date the Initial Shelf Registration
Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, the Issuers shall, as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the date such Holder became a Notice Holder, and in any event, subject to clause (B) below, within the later of
(x) thirty (30) days after such date or (y) thirty (30) days after the expiration of any Suspension Period that either (I) is in effect when such Holder became a Notice Holder or (II) is put into effect within five
(5) Business Days after the date such Holder became a Notice Holder, 
 (A) if required by applicable law, file
with the SEC a supplement to the related Prospectus or a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or file with the SEC a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement and any necessary supplement or amendment to any document
incorporated therein by reference and file any other required document with the SEC so that such Notice Holder is named as a selling securityholder in a Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such
Notice Holder to deliver a Prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law; provided, however, that, (X) if a post-effective amendment or a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is
required by the rules and regulations of the SEC in order to permit resales by such 

  

 4 

 
Notice Holder, the Issuers shall not be required to file more than one (1) post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement or, in
the case where a Holder became a Notice Holder after the forty-fifth (45th) date after the date of effectiveness of the Initial Shelf Registration
Statement, a supplement to the related Prospectus for such purpose in any ninety (90) day period. 
 (B) if,
pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(A), the Issuers shall have filed a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or filed a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, the Issuers shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause such
post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable, but in any event by the date (the “Amendment Effectiveness
Deadline Date,” in the case of a post-effective amendment, and the “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement Effectiveness Deadline Date,” in the case of a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) that is forty-five
(45) days in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or seventy-five (75) days in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-1, after the date such post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration
Statement, as the case may be, is required by this Section 2(d) to be filed with the SEC; 
 (C) the Company shall
provide such Notice Holder a reasonable number of copies of any documents filed pursuant to clause (A) above upon written request by such Notice Holder; 
 (D) the Company shall notify such Notice Holder as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act
of any post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to clause (A) above; 
 (E) if
such Holder became a Notice Holder during a Suspension Period, or a Suspension Period is put into effect within five (5) Business Days after the date such Holder became a Notice Holder, the Company shall so inform such Notice Holder and shall
take the actions set forth in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above within thirty (30) days after expiration of such Suspension Period in accordance with Section 3(i); and 
 (F) if, under applicable law, the Issuers has more than one option as to the type or manner of making any such filing, the Issuers shall
make the required filing or filings in the manner or of a type that is reasonably expected to result in the earliest availability of a Prospectus for effecting resales of Registrable Securities. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Issuers shall be under no obligation to name any Holder that is not a
Notice Holder as a selling securityholder in any Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus; provided, however, that any Holder that becomes a Notice Holder (regardless of when such Holder became a Notice Holder) shall be named
as a selling securityholder in a Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus in accordance with the requirements of this Section 2(d) or Section 2(a), as applicable. 
 (e) The parties hereto agree that the Holders of Registrable Securities will suffer damages, and that it would not be feasible to
ascertain the extent of such damages with precision, if: 
 (i) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed
with the SEC on or prior to the Filing Deadline Date; 
 (ii) the Initial Shelf Registration Statement has not become
effective under the Securities Act on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline Date; 
 (iii) a Holder of Registrable Securities has delivered a completed and executed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company after the fifth (5th) Business Day before the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, but the Company fails to file in accordance with Section 2(d) a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration
Statement, a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to other documents as provided for in Section 2(d) on or prior to the Amendment Filing Deadline Date or fails to have such an amendment to the Shelf Registration
Statement declared effective on or prior to the Amendment Effectiveness Deadline Date; 
 (iv) the Initial Shelf
Registration Statement or any Subsequent Registration Statement is filed with the SEC and becomes effective under the Securities Act but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by a new Registration Statement that
is filed and immediately becomes effective under the Securities Act) or usable for the offer and sale of Registrable Securities in the manner contemplated by this 

  

 5 

 
Agreement for a period of time (including any Suspension Period) which shall exceed forty-five (45) days in the aggregate in any three (3) month
period or ninety (90) days (or one hundred twenty (120) days in the case of a Suspension Period Extension) in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period; or 
 (v) any Registration Statement or amendment thereto, at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, or any Prospectus relating
thereto, at the time it is filed with the SEC or, if later, at the time the Registration Statement to which such Prospectus relates becomes effective under the Securities Act, shall fail to name each Holder as a selling securityholder in such a
manner as to permit such Notice Holder to sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement and Prospectus in accordance with applicable law, which Holder was entitled, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to be so named
(it being understood that, without limitation, naming such Holder in a manner that permits such Holder to sell only a portion of such Notice Holder’s Registrable Securities referenced in such Holder’s Notice and Questionnaire shall be
deemed to be an “Event” (as defined below) for purposes of this clause (v)). 
 Each of the events of a type described in any of the foregoing
clauses (i) through (v) are individually referred to herein as an “Event,” and 
 (V) the Filing
Deadline Date, in the case of clause (i) above, 
 (W) the Effectiveness Deadline Date, in the case of clause

applicable Prospectus is filed with the SEC or, if later, the time the Registration Statement to which such Prospectus relates becomes effective under the Securities Act, as the case may be, in the case of clause (v) above, 
 are each herein referred to as an “Event Date.” Events shall be deemed to continue until the following dates with respect to the respective types of
Events: 
 (A) the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement is filed with the SEC, in the case of an Event of the type
described in clause (i) above; 
 (B) the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the
Securities Act, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (ii) above; 
 (C) the date a supplement to a
Prospectus, a post-effective amendment or a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, whichever is required, is filed with the SEC (in the case of a supplement) or becomes effective under the Securities Act (in the case of a post-effective amendment
or a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (iii) above; 
 (D) the date the Initial Shelf Registration Statement or the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, becomes effective and usable again, or the date another Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed with the SEC
pursuant to Section 2(b) and becomes effective, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (iv) above; or 
 (E) the date a supplement to the Prospectus is filed with the SEC, or the date a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, or the date a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement

Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement and Prospectus supplement in accordance with applicable law, all Holders entitled as herein provided to be so named, in the case of an Event of the type described in clause (v) above.

 Accordingly, commencing on (and including) any Event Date and ending on (but excluding) the next date on which there are no Events that have occurred and
are continuing (an “Additional Interest Accrual Period”), the Issuers, 

  

 6 

 
jointly and severally, agree to pay, as additional interest (“additional interest”) and not as a penalty, an amount (the “Additional
Interest Amount”) at the rate described below, payable periodically on each Additional Interest Payment Date to Record Holders of Notes, to the extent of, for each such Additional Interest Payment Date, the unpaid Additional Interest Amount
that has accrued to (but excluding) such Additional Interest Payment Date (or, if the Additional Interest Accrual Period shall have ended prior to such Additional Interest Payment Date, the day immediately after the last day of such Additional
Interest Accrual Period); provided, however, that any unpaid Additional Interest Amount that has accrued with respect to any Note, or portion thereof, purchased by the Company pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change on a
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after the close of business on the Record Date relating to such Additional Interest Payment Date and before such Additional Interest Payment Date, shall, in each case, be instead paid, on such Fundamental
Change Repurchase Date to the Holder who submitted such Note or portion thereof for Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change. The Additional Interest Amount shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) for the ninety
(90) day period beginning on, and including, the Event Date and thereafter at a rate per annum equal to one half of one percent (0.50%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of which such Record Holders were holders of record at the
close of business on the applicable Record Date; provided, however, that: 
  

	 	(I)	unless there shall be a default in the payment of any Additional Interest Amount, no Additional Interest Amounts shall accrue as to any Note from and after the earlier of
(x) the date such Note is no longer a Registrable Security, (y) the date, and to the extent, such Note is converted into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the Indenture and (z) the expiration of the Effectiveness Period;

  

	 	(II)	only those Notice Holders (or their subsequent transferees) failing to be named as selling securityholders in the manner prescribed in Section 2(e)(v) above shall be entitled
to receive any Additional Interest Amounts that have accrued solely with respect to an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(v) above (it being understood that this clause (II) shall not impair any right of any Notice Holder to receive
Additional Interest Amounts that have accrued with respect to an Event other than an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(v) above); 

  

	 	(III)	only those Holders (or their subsequent transferees) whose delivery of a Notice and Questionnaire gave rise to the obligation of the Issuers, pursuant to Section 2(d)(i), to
file and, if applicable, make effective under the Securities Act the supplement, post-effective amendment or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement referred to in Section 2(e)(iii) above shall be entitled to receive any Additional Interest
Amounts that have accrued solely with respect to an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(iii) above (it being understood that this clause (III) shall not impair any right of any Notice Holder to receive Additional Interest Amounts that
have accrued with respect to an Event other than an Event of the type described in Section 2(e)(iii) above); 

  

	 	(IV)	if a Note ceases to be outstanding during an Additional Interest Accrual Period for which an Additional Interest Amount would be payable with respect to such Note, then the
Additional Interest Amount payable hereunder with respect to such Note shall be prorated on the basis of the number of full days such Note is outstanding during such Additional Interest Accrual Period; and 

  

	 	(V)	in no event shall the Additional Interest Amounts plus any special interest that is payable pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Indenture (in the event of the Company’s
failure to comply with its reporting obligations in the Indenture or with the requirements of Section 314(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act) accrue at an aggregate rate per year exceeding 0.50% of the principal amount of the Notes.

 Except as provided in the final paragraph of this Section 2(e), (i) the rate of accrual of the Additional Interest Amount with
respect to any period shall not exceed the rate provided for in this Section 2(e) notwithstanding the occurrence of multiple concurrent Events and (ii) following the cure of all Events requiring the payment by the Company of Additional
Interest Amounts to the Holders pursuant to this Section, the accrual of Additional Interest Amounts shall cease (without in any way limiting the effect of any subsequent Event requiring the payment of Additional Interest Amounts by the Company).
All installments of additional interest shall be paid in the same manner that interest is paid on the Notes in accordance with the Indenture. 
  

 7 

 All of the Issuers’ obligations set forth in this Section 2(e) that are outstanding with respect to any
Registrable Security at the time such Registrable Security ceases to be a Registrable Security shall survive until such time as all such obligations with respect to such security have been satisfied in full (notwithstanding termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 9(n)). 
 The parties hereto agree that the additional interest provided for in this Section 2(e) constitutes a
reasonable estimate of the damages in respect of the Notes that may be incurred by Holders of the Notes by reason of an Event relating to such Notes, including, without limitation, the failure of a Shelf Registration Statement to be filed, become
effective under the Securities Act, amended or replaced to include the names of all Notice Holders or available for effecting resales of Registrable Securities in accordance with the provisions hereof. 
 If any Additional Interest Amounts are not paid when due, then, to the extent permitted by law, such overdue Additional Interest Amounts, if any, shall bear interest,
compounded semi-annually, until paid at the rate of interest payable with respect to overdue amounts on the Notes pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture. 
 The Trustee shall be entitled, on behalf of Holders, to seek any available remedy for the enforcement of this Agreement, including for the payment of any Additional Interest Amount. 
 3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the registration obligations of the Issuers under Section 2 hereof, the Issuers shall:

Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the
Securities Act and remain effective under the Securities Act as provided herein; provided, that, before filing any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (other than any amendments or supplements
the sole purpose of which is to name additional selling Holders) with the SEC, the Company shall furnish to the Initial Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any, and counsel for the Initial Purchaser copies of all such documents proposed to be filed
and give reasonable consideration to any comments as the Initial Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any, or such counsel may propose within two (2) Business Days of the delivery of such copies to the Initial Purchaser and such counsel.

 (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each Shelf Registration Statement as may
be necessary to keep such Shelf Registration Statement or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until the expiration of the Effectiveness Period; cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus
supplement and, as so supplemented, to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act applicable to it with respect to the
disposition of all securities covered by each Shelf Registration Statement during the Effectiveness Period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement as so amended or
such Prospectus as so supplemented. 
 (c) As promptly as is reasonably practicable, give notice to the Notice Holders, the
Initial Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any, and counsel for the Initial Purchaser: 
 (i) when any Prospectus, Prospectus
supplement, Shelf Registration Statement or post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC and, with respect to a Shelf Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become
effective under the Securities Act, 
 (ii) of any request, following the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement
under the Securities Act, by the SEC or any other governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such Shelf Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or for additional information, 
 (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Shelf
Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for that purpose, 
 (iv) of the receipt by the
Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding
for such purpose, 
  

 8 

 (v) after the effective date of any Shelf Registration Statement filed with the SEC
pursuant to this Agreement, of the occurrence of (but not the nature of or details concerning) a Material Event, and 
 (vi)
of the determination by the Company that a post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement or a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement will be filed with the SEC, which notice may, at the discretion of the Company (or as required
pursuant to Section 3(i)), state that it constitutes a Suspension Notice, in which event the provisions of Section 3(i) shall apply. 
 (d) Use their reasonable best efforts to (i) prevent the issuance of, and, if issued, to obtain the withdrawal of, any order suspending the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement and (ii) obtain the
lifting of any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction in which they have been qualified for sale, in either case at the earliest possible moment, and
provide prompt notice to each Notice Holder and the Initial Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any, and counsel for the Initial Purchaser, of the withdrawal or lifting of any such order or suspension. 
 (e) If requested by the Initial Purchaser or any Notice Holder, as promptly as reasonably practicable incorporate in a Prospectus
supplement or a post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement such information as the Initial Purchaser, such Notice Holder or Designated Counsel, if any, or counsel for the Initial Purchaser shall determine to be required to be
included therein by applicable law and make any required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to take any actions under this Section 3(e)
that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, are not in compliance with applicable law. 
 (f) As promptly as reasonably
practicable, furnish to each requesting Notice Holder, the Initial Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any, and counsel for the Initial Purchaser, without charge, at least one (1) conformed copy of each Shelf Registration Statement and each
amendment thereto, including financial statements but excluding schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits (unless requested in writing to the Company by such Notice Holder, such counsel
or the Initial Purchaser). 
 (g) During the Effectiveness Period, deliver to each Notice Holder, the Initial Purchaser,
Designated Counsel, if any, and counsel for the Initial Purchaser, in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses relating to such
Registrable Securities (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Notice Holder or the Initial Purchaser may reasonably request in writing; and the Issuers hereby consent (except during such periods that
a Suspension Notice is outstanding and has not been revoked) to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each Notice Holder, in connection with any offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in the manner set forth therein. 
 (h) Prior to any public offering of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, use their reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Notice Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such
registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Notice Holder reasonably requests in writing (which request may be included
in the Notice and Questionnaire); use their reasonable best efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period in connection with such Notice Holder’s offer and sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities
in the manner set forth in the relevant Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus; provided, however, that each Issuer will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where such
Issuer is not then so qualified (ii) take any action that would subject such Issuer to general service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of Registrable Securities or arising in connection with this
Agreement, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject; or (iii) take any action that would subject such Issuer to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 
 (i) Upon: (A) the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development (a “Material Event”) that, in the
reasonable discretion of the Company, makes it appropriate to suspend the availability of any Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus; (B) the issuance by the SEC of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Shelf
Registration Statement or the initiation of proceedings with respect to any Shelf 

  

 9 

 
Registration Statement under Section 8(d) or 8(e) of the Securities Act; or (C) the occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact as a
result of which any Shelf Registration Statement shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any Prospectus
shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, 
 (i) in the case of clause (B) or (C) above, subject to the next sentence, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, prepare and
file, if necessary pursuant to applicable law, a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or a supplement to such Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document that would be
incorporated by reference into such Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus so that such Shelf Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and so that such Prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities being sold thereunder, and, in the case of a post-effective amendment to a Shelf Registration Statement, subject to the
next sentence, use its reasonable best efforts to cause it to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable, and 
 (ii) give notice to the Notice Holders, the Initial Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any, and counsel for the Initial Purchaser that the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement is suspended (a
“Suspension Notice”) (and, upon receipt of any Suspension Notice, each Notice Holder agrees not to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement until such Notice Holder’s receipt of copies of
the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in clause (i) above or until such Notice Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the Prospectus may be used). 
 The Issuers will use their reasonable best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed (x) in the case of clause (A) above, as soon as, in the reasonable discretion of the Company, such
suspension is no longer appropriate, (y) in the case of clause (B) above, as promptly as is reasonably practicable, and (z) in the case of clause (C) above, as soon as, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, the Shelf
Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the Prospectus does not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The period during which the availability of the
Shelf Registration Statement and any Prospectus may be suspended (the “Suspension Period”) without the Company incurring any obligation to pay additional interest pursuant to Section 2(e) shall not exceed forty-five
(45) days in the aggregate in any three (3) month period or ninety (90) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period, except that, in the case of clause (A) above, if the Company has determined, in its the
reasonable discretion that the disclosure of a previously undisclosed proposed or pending Material Event would impede the Company’s ability to consummate such Material Event, or in the case of clause (C) above, the Company is required to
file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement to include quarterly or annual financial information in any Shelf Registration Statement filed on Form S-1, the Company may, upon written notice to the Notice Holders, the Initial
Purchaser, Designated Counsel, if any and counsel for the Initial Purchaser no later than three (3) Business Days immediately preceding the day upon which such Suspension Period would otherwise expire, extend such Suspension Period (a
“Suspension Period Extension”), but in no case shall such Suspension Period, as extended, exceed one hundred twenty (120) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period. The Effectiveness Period shall be extended by
the number of days from and including the date of the giving of the Suspension Notice to and including the date on which the Notice Holder received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided in clause (i) above, or the date on
which it is advised in writing by the Company that the Prospectus may be used and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such Prospectus. 
 (j) Upon prior written notice, make available for inspection during normal business hours by representatives for the Notice Holders and
any underwriters participating in any disposition pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement and any broker-dealers, attorneys and accountants retained by such Notice Holders or any such underwriters, all relevant financial and other records and
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and cause the appropriate officers, directors and employees of the Issuers and its subsidiaries to make available for inspection during normal business hours all
relevant information reasonably 

  

 10 

 
requested by such representatives for the Notice Holders, or any such underwriters, broker-dealers, attorneys or accountants in connection with such
disposition, in each case as is customary for similar “due diligence” examinations; provided, however, that such persons shall, at the Company’s request, first agree in writing with the Company that any information that
is reasonably and in good faith designated by the Company in writing as confidential at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by such persons and shall be used solely for the purposes of exercising rights under this
Agreement, unless (i) disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of governmental or regulatory authorities, (ii) disclosure of such information is required by law
(including any disclosure requirements pursuant to federal securities laws in connection with the filing of any Shelf Registration Statement or the use of any Prospectus referred to in this Agreement) or necessary to defend or prosecute a claim
brought against or by any such persons (e.g., to establish a “due diligence” defense), (iii) such information becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by any such
person or (iv) such information becomes available to any such person from a source other than the Company and such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement or is not otherwise under a duty of trust to the Company; provided
further, that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall, to the greatest extent possible, be coordinated on behalf of all the Notice Holders and the other parties entitled thereto by Designated Counsel. 
 (k) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; and make generally available to the Company’s securityholders
earnings statements (which need not be audited) satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any similar rule promulgated under the Securities Act), which statements shall cover a period of twelve
(12) months commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter of the Company commencing after the effective date of each Shelf Registration Statement (within the meaning of Rule 158(c) under the Securities Act), and which statements shall
be so made generally available to the Company’s securityholders no later than forty (40) days after the end of the applicable twelve (12) month period (or, if such earnings statement is filed with the SEC on Form 10-K under the
Exchange Act, sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable twelve (12) month period; provided, however, that, to the extent any such earnings statement will be contained in one report, or any combination of reports, on
Form 10-K and/or Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act filed by the Company with the SEC and the deadline, under the Exchange Act, for the Company to file, with the SEC, such report, if such earnings statement is contained in a Form 10-K, or to file,
with the SEC, the last of such reports which together constitute such earnings statement, if such earnings statement is contained in a combination of reports, is a date that is later than the applicable foregoing deadline, then such later date shall
apply in place of the otherwise applicable foregoing deadline. 
 (l) Cooperate with each Notice Holder to facilitate the
timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends, and cause such Registrable Securities to be in such
denominations as are permitted by the Indenture and registered in such names as such Notice Holder may request in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of such Registrable Securities. 
 (m) Provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement not later than the effective date of
the Initial Shelf Registration Statement and provide the Trustee and the transfer agent for the Common Stock with certificates for the Registrable Securities that are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 
 (n) Cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. 
 (o) Upon the filing of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, and upon the effectiveness under the Securities Act of the Initial Shelf
Registration Statement, announce the same, in each case by release through a reputable national newswire service. 
 (p) Take
all actions and enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) as are necessary, or reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold, in order to
expedite or facilitate disposition of such Registrable Securities; and if such registration is an underwritten registration: 
 (i) the Issuers shall make such representations and warranties to the Holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, in form, substance and scope as would be customarily made by the Company to underwriters in similar
offerings of securities; 
  

 11 

 (ii) the Issuers shall obtain opinions of counsel of the Company and updates thereof
(which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Underwriters, if any, and to the counsel to the Holders of the Registrable Securities being sold) addressed to each selling Holder and the
underwriters, if any, covering the matters that would be customarily covered in opinions requested in sales of securities or underwritten offerings; 
 (iii) the Issuers shall obtain “comfort letters” and updates thereof from the Company’s independent certified public accountants (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of
any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements are, or are required to be, included in any Shelf Registration Statement) addressed to the underwriters, if any, and the selling Holders of
Registrable Securities (to the extent consistent with Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72 of the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts), such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type that would customarily
be covered in “comfort letters” to underwriters in connection with similar underwritten offerings; 
 (iv) the
Issuers shall, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause any such underwriting agreement to contain indemnification provisions and procedures substantially equivalent to the indemnification provisions and procedures set forth in
Section 6 hereof with respect to the underwriters and all other parties to be indemnified pursuant to said Section; and 
 (v) the Issuers shall deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested and as are customarily delivered in similar offerings to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold and to the Managing
Underwriters, if any; 
 the above to be done at each closing under any underwriting or similar agreement as and to the extent required thereunder.

 (q) Cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the Initial Shelf Registration
Statement; and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required for the Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA and execute, and use its reasonable best
efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents as may be required to effect such changes, and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner. 
 (r) Use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Underlying Common Stock to be listed on The New York Stock Exchange. 
 (s) In the event that any broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite any Registrable Securities or participate as a
member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “participate in a public offering” (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the “NASD Rules”) of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.) thereof,
whether as a Holder of such Registrable Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Issuers will assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of such NASD
Rules, including, without limitation, by: (i) if such NASD Rules, including NASD Rule 2720, shall so require, engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in NASD Rule 2720) to participate in the preparation of the Shelf
Registration Statement relating to such Registrable Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereof and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Shelf Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is
made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield or price, as the case may be, of such Registrable Securities; (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters
provided in Section 6 hereof; and (iii) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the NASD Rules. 
 4. Holder’s Obligations. Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the Registrable Securities, that no Holder of Registrable Securities shall be
entitled to sell any of such Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement or to receive a Prospectus relating thereto, unless such Holder has furnished the Company with a Notice and Questionnaire as required pursuant to
Section 2(d) hereof (including the information required to be included in such Notice and Questionnaire) and the information set forth in the next sentence. Each Notice Holder agrees promptly to furnish to the Company all information required
to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Notice Holder not misleading and any other information regarding such Notice Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may
from time to time 

  

 12 

 
reasonably request. Any sale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Holder that the information
relating to such Holder and its plan of distribution is as set forth in the Prospectus delivered by such Holder in connection with such disposition, that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale contain any untrue statement of a material
fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution and that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale omit to state any material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution necessary in
order to make the statements in such Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 5.
Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance by the Issuers of their respective obligations under Section 2 and Section 3 of this Agreement whether or not any of the
Shelf Registration Statements are filed or declared effective under the Securities Act. Such fees and expenses (“Registration Expenses”) shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses
(including, without limitation, fees and expenses (x) with respect to filings required to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and (y) of compliance with federal securities laws and state securities or Blue Sky
laws (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of Designated Counsel, if any, in connection with Blue Sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Notice Holders of a majority
of the Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement may designate, which fees and disbursements shall not exceed fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) during the term of this Agreement), (ii) all printing expenses
(including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and printing Prospectuses), (iii) all duplication and mailing expenses relating to
copies of any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus delivered to any Holders hereunder, (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) all fees and disbursements of Designated Counsel, which fees and disbursements
shall not exceed an aggregate of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) during the term of this Agreement, (vi) all fees and disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel and of the registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock, (vii) the
reasonable fees and disbursements, in connection with the review of the Shelf Registration Statement(s), of Latham & Watkins LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchaser, which fees and disbursements shall not exceed an aggregate of twenty
thousand dollars ($20,000) during the term of this Agreement and (viii) Securities Act liability insurance obtained by the Company in its sole discretion. In addition, the Company shall pay the internal expenses of the Company (including,
without limitation, all salaries and expenses of officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing by the Company of the
Registrable Securities on any securities exchange or quotation system on which similar securities of the Company are then listed and the fees and expenses of any person, including, without limitation, special experts, retained by the Company.

 6. Indemnification, Contribution. 
 (a) The Issuers, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser, each Holder, each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser or Holder within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of the Initial Purchaser, the Holders or any controlling person thereof (each, a
“Holder Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or any actions in respect thereof (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which such Indemnified Party may incur or become subject to
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Shelf
Registration Statement or Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact required to be stated in any Shelf Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made in any Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading, and
the Issuers shall reimburse, as incurred, the Holder Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action in respect
thereof; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be required to provide any indemnification pursuant to this Section 6(a) in any such case insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action arises out of
or is based upon any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in, or omitted from, and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of an Initial Purchaser or a Holder
to 

  

 13 

 
the Company expressly for use in, any Shelf Registration Statement or any Prospectus; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement
will be in addition to any liability which the Issuers may otherwise have to such Holder Indemnified Party. 
 (b) Each
Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuers, its directors, officers, employees and any person who controls the Issuers within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20
of the Exchange Act (each, a “Issuer Indemnified Party”) from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or any actions in respect thereof (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which such Issuer Indemnified
Party may incur or become subject to under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in, and in conformity with information (the “Holder Information”) furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder to the Company expressly for use in, any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, or
arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in connection with such Holder Information required to be stated in any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or necessary to make such Holder Information
not misleading; and, subject to the limitation set forth in the immediately preceding clause, each Holder shall reimburse, as incurred, each Issuer Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Issuer Indemnified
Party in connection with investigating or defending any loss, damage, expense, liability, claim or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to any Issuer
Indemnified Party. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale, pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement, of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
 (c) If any action, suit or
proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either Section 6(a) or Section 6(b), such person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall
promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such Proceeding;
provided, however, that the omission to so notify such Indemnifying Party shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party or otherwise. Such Indemnified Party shall have the
right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by such Indemnifying Party in
connection with the defense of such Proceeding or such Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such Proceeding within thirty (30) days of the receipt of notice thereof or such Indemnified Party shall
have reasonably concluded upon the written advice of counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to it that are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to such Indemnifying Party (in which case such
Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct that portion of the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party, but such Indemnifying Party may employ counsel and participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnifying Party), in any of which events such reasonable fees and expenses shall be borne by such Indemnifying Party and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that such Indemnifying Party
shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings together with reasonably necessary local counsel representing the Indemnified Parties who are parties to such action). An
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of such Proceeding effected without the written consent of such Indemnifying Party, but if settled with the written consent of such Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Party shall have requested an Indemnifying Party to reimburse
such Indemnified Party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this paragraph, then such Indemnifying Party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent
if (i) such settlement is entered into more than sixty (60) Business Days after receipt by such Indemnifying Party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such Indemnifying Party shall not have fully reimbursed such Indemnified Party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such Indemnified Party shall have given such Indemnifying Party at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No Indemnifying Party
shall, without the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder
by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault or culpability or a
failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party. 
  

 14 

 (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to an
Indemnified Party under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b), or insufficient to hold such Indemnified Party harmless, in respect of any losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims or actions referred to therein, then each applicable
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims or actions (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuers, on the one hand, and by the Holders or the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by
clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuers, on the one hand, and of the
Holders or the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims or actions, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative fault of the Issuers, on the one hand, and of the Holders or the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Issuers or by the Holders or the Initial Purchaser and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims and actions referred to above shall be deemed to include any reasonable legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such
party in connection with investigating or defending any Proceeding. 
 (e) The Issuers, the Holders and the Initial Purchaser
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in
Section 6(d) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Registrable Securities giving rise to such
contribution obligation and sold by such Holder were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which it has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’ respective
obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective amount of Registrable Securities they have sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, and not joint. The remedies provided for in this
Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity. 
 (f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 6 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation
made by or on behalf of any Holder or the Initial Purchaser or any person controlling any Holder or Initial Purchaser, or the Company, or the Company’s officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) the sale of any
Registrable Security by any Holder. 
 7. Information Requirements. 
 (a) The Company covenants that, if at any time before the end of the Effectiveness Period it is not subject to the reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act, it will cooperate with any Holder of Registrable Securities and take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request in writing (including, without limitation, making such representations as
any such Holder may reasonably request), all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemptions provided by Rule 144,
Rule 144A, Regulation S and Regulation D under the Securities Act and customarily taken in connection with sales pursuant to such exemptions. Upon the written request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to
whether the Company has complied with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, unless such a statement has been included in the Company’s most recent report filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of Exchange
Act. 
 (b) The Company shall file the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and shall comply with all
other requirements set forth in the instructions to Form S-3 in order to allow the Company to be eligible to file registration statements on Form S-3. 
  

 15 

 8. Underwritten Registrations. 
 (a) If any of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement are to be offered and sold in an underwritten
offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering (“Managing Underwriters”) shall be selected by the holders of a majority of such Registrable Securities to be included
in such offering. 
 (b) No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person
(i) agrees to sell such person’s Registrable Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Registrable Securities be offered and sold pursuant hereto through
a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to an underwritten offering without the prior written agreement of the Company. 
 9.
Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Remedies. The Issuers acknowledge and agrees that any failure by the Issuers to comply
with its obligations under this Agreement may result in material irreparable injury to the Initial Purchaser and the Holders for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely
and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchaser or Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Issuers’s obligations under this Agreement. The Issuers further agree to waive the defense in any
action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. Notwithstanding the foregoing two sentences, this Section 9(a) shall not apply to the subject matter referred to in and contemplated by Section 2(e). 
 (b) No Conflicting Agreements. The Issuers are not, as of the date hereof, a party to, nor shall they, on or after the date of this
Agreement, enter into, any agreement with respect to the Company’s securities that conflicts with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The Issuers represent and warrant that the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in
any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Company’s securities under any other agreements. The Issuers will not take any action with respect to the Registrable Securities which would adversely affect the ability of any of
the Holders to include such Registrable Securities in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (c)
Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the
Issuers have obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of outstanding Registrable Securities; provided, however, that, no consent is necessary from any of the Holders in the event that this Agreement is amended, modified or
supplemented for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter
that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Registrable Securities whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders of Registrable
Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that the provisions of this sentence may not be
amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Each Holder of Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent or
thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 9(c), whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or
consent appears on the Registrable Securities or is delivered to such Holder. 
 (d) Notices. All notices and other
communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, by telecopier, by courier guaranteeing overnight delivery or by first-class mail, return receipt requested, and shall be deemed given (A) when made,
if made by hand delivery, (B) upon confirmation, if made by telecopier, (C) one (1) Business Day after being deposited with such courier, if made by overnight courier or (D) on the date indicated on the notice of receipt, if made

 LIMITED WAIVER 
 Section 1.01 Limited Waiver. 
 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment, the Lenders hereby waive the requirements of clauses (C) and (D) of
Section 6.01(n) of the Credit Agreement as they would otherwise apply to the issuance and sale by Holdings of the Convertible Notes ; provided that (i) the terms of the Convertible Notes are reasonably acceptable to the Joint Lead

therein; or 

  

	 	(b)	prejudice any right or remedy that any Agent or Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other

delivery and performance of this Second Amendment and the Consent of Guarantors, as applicable, have been obtained or made and (ii) this Second Amendment and the Consent of Guarantors, as applicable, have been duly executed and delivered by

contemplated hereby, nor the performance of, and compliance with the terms and provisions of, this Second Amendment, the Consent of Guarantors or any such other agreement or instrument by any Loan Party, nor the issuance and sale by Borrower of the

Lenders, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to the Credit Agreement and, subject to and in accordance with Section 11.04 of the Credit Agreement, their respective successors and assigns; provided
that the effectiveness of the waiver and amendments contained herein is conditioned upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III of this Second Amendment. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Second Amendment by telecopy shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Second Amendment.

in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, and the invalidity of
a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 4.06
