Re:  Long-Term Disability Employees

Ladies & Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Transaction Agreement among The Procter & Gamble Company, Galleria Co., Coty Inc. and Green Acquisition Sub Inc. (the “Parties”), dated July 8, 2015 (as amended from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”).  This letter, Exhibit A and Attachment A attached hereto, which together are referred to herein as the “Side Letter,” are intended to confirm the mutual understanding of the Parties with respect to certain employees of Parent who are not actively at work due to long-term disability as of the Closing Date.  

Each of the Parties agrees as follows:

1.Definitions.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Side Letter will have the meanings given to such terms in the Transaction Agreement.  

2.Treatment of Certain Long-Term Disability Employees.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Transaction Agreement to the contrary, but subject to applicable law, any In-Scope Employee who is not actively at work as of the Closing due to a long-term disability leave of absence and who is listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a “Long-Term Disability Employee”), (i) will remain an employee of Parent or its Subsidiaries, (ii) effective immediately prior to the Closing, will cease to be considered an In-Scope Employee, and (iii) will not become a Continuing Employee.  In connection with the foregoing, the Recapitalization Amount will be increased in an amount equal to $15,000,000.

3.Severance.  Attachment 1 to Section 6.04(c) of the Parent Disclosure Letter is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with a new Attachment 1 as set forth on Attachment A to this Side Letter. 

4.Effect of Side Letter.  This Side Letter constitutes a valid amendment of the Transaction Agreement as contemplated by Section 10.06 of the Transaction Agreement.  Except as expressly modified by this Side Letter, the Transaction Agreement, as so amended by this Side Letter, will remain in full force and effect in all respects.  Each reference to “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and “this Agreement” in the Transaction Agreement will from and after the effective date hereof refer to the Transaction Agreement as amended by this Side Letter.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Side Letter, the date of the Transaction Agreement, as amended hereby, will in all instances remain as July 8, 2015, 

and any references in the Transaction Agreement to “the date first above written,” “the date of this Agreement,” “the date hereof” and similar references will continue to refer to July 8, 2015, including, without limitation, for purposes of Article III and Article IV of the Transaction Agreement.

5.Entire Agreement.  This Side Letter, together with the Transaction Agreement, the Parent Disclosure Letter, and the Ancillary Agreements, including any related annexes, schedules and exhibits, as well as any other agreements and documents referred to therein, will together constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and will supersede all prior negotiations, agreements and understandings of the Parties of any nature, whether oral or written, with respect to such subject matter.

6.Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.  Sections 10.04(a), (b) and (c) (Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial), in each case, of the Transaction Agreement are incorporated into this Side Letter by reference as if fully set forth herein, mutatis mutandis.

7.Notices.  All notices, requests, permissions, waivers and other communications hereunder will be in writing and sent pursuant to the requirements of Section 10.05 of the Transaction Agreement.

8.No Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Side Letter is solely for the benefit of the Parties and does not confer on third parties (including any employees of any member of the Parent Group or the Acquiror Group) any remedy, claim, reimbursement, claim of action or other right in addition to those existing without reference to this Side Letter.  Nothing in this Side Letter is intended to be a guaranty or promise of employment to any person for any specific length of time.

9.Construction.  The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a substantive part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Side Letter.

10.Counterparts.  This Side Letter may be executed in multiple counterparts (any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party), each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement.  This Side Letter, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or other electronic transmission, will be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement and will be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.  At the request of any party, the other party will re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to the requesting party.

 (b) the then outstanding principal amount of such Note, 

as calculated by the Company or on behalf of the Company by such Person as the Company shall designate.

Global Note, the rules and procedures of the Depositary that apply to such transfer, redemption or exchange. 
 “Asset
Sale” means (a) the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of any assets or rights, other than sales, leases, transfers, conveyances or other dispositions of inventory in the ordinary course of business consistent with
past practices; provided that the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole will be governed by Section 4.16 and/or Section 5.01

as the case may be, will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all securities that such “person” or “group” has the right to acquire by conversion or exercise of other securities, whether such right is currently exercisable
or is exercisable only upon the occurrence of a subsequent condition.

date upon which such lease may be prepaid by the lessee without payment of a penalty. For the avoidance of doubt, Capital Lease Obligations shall not include any former operating leases which became capital leases solely as a result of changes in
lease accounting under GAAP subsequent to the Issue Date.

increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. Any endorsement of a Global Note to reflect the aggregate principal amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the
Trustee in such manner and upon instructions given by the Holder thereof. 
 Global Notes may be issued in either registered or bearer form
and in either temporary or permanent form. Permanent Global Notes will be issued in definitive form. 
 The provisions of the last sentence
of Section 2.02 shall apply to any Note represented by a Global Note if such Note was never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company delivers to the Trustee the Note in global form together with written instructions with regard to the
reduction in the principal amount of Notes represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of Section 2.02. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Sections 2.02 and 2.14, payment of principal of and any interest on any Global Note shall be made to
the person or persons specified therein. 
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or Registrar will have any responsibility or
liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

SECTION 2.04. Amount of Notes. On the Issue Date, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, pursuant to a Company Order,
$1,200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Senior Notes due January 15, 2025 and, at any time and from time to time thereafter, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Notes for original issue in an aggregate principal amount
specified in a Company Order. Such order shall specify the amount of the Notes to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Notes is to be authenticated and, in the case of an issuance of Additional Notes pursuant to
Section 2.16 after the Issue Date, shall certify that such issuance is in compliance with Section 4.09. The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is unlimited, subject to
compliance with Section 4.09. The Notes may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules or usage. The Notes shall be in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

All Notes shall be substantially identical except as to the date from which interest shall accrue and except as may otherwise be provided in
any indenture supplemental hereto. 
 If any of the terms of the Notes are established by action taken pursuant to a Board Resolution, a
copy of any appropriate record of such action shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the delivery of the Officers’ Certificate setting forth the terms of the
Notes. 
 The Notes, including any Additional Notes, shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including,
without limitation, waivers, amendments, 

  
 30 

 
redemptions and offers to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for federal income tax purposes, such
non-fungible Additional Notes shall be issued with a separate CUSIP number and ISIN so they are distinguishable from the Initial Notes. 

SECTION 2.05. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain, with respect to the Notes, an office or agency where Notes may be
presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”) in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. The Registrar
shall keep a register (the “Note Register”) of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange. The Company may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Registrar” includes any
co-registrar and the term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of
any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar of Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

 The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to act as Depositary with respect to the Global
Notes. 
 The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as Registrar and Paying Agent and to act as Custodian with respect to the Global
Notes, and the Trustee hereby agrees so to initially act. 
 SECTION 2.06. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. The Company shall
require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent will hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes, and will notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all funds held by it relating to the Notes to the Trustee.
The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all funds held by it to the Trustee. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for such funds.
If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders all funds held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any Event of Default under Sections 6.01(i) and
(j) relating to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Notes. 
 SECTION 2.07. Holder Lists. The Trustee
shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of all Holders and shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee at least seven Business Days before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably
require of the names and addresses of the Holders and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA §312(a). 

  
 31 

 SECTION 2.08. Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. Upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Notes at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount. The Company shall not charge a service charge for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment
of a sum sufficient to pay all taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with the transfer or exchange of the Notes from the Holder requesting such transfer or exchange (other than any exchange of a temporary
Note for a permanent Note not involving any change in ownership or any exchange pursuant to Sections 2.12, 3.06 or 9.05, not involving any transfer). 

Notwithstanding any other provisions (other than the provisions set forth in the fourth paragraph) of this Section 2.08, a Global Note
representing all or a portion of the Notes may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary 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 or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 
 Each Global Note is exchangeable for Notes in
certificated form only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Notes or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act
and the Company fails within 90 days thereafter to appoint a successor Depositary, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines that such Global Note shall be exchangeable or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event
of Default with respect to the Notes represented by such Global Notes. In any such event the Company will issue, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of certificated Notes, will authenticate and
deliver Notes in certificated form in exchange for such Global Note. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in either Global Note will be entitled to physical delivery in certificated form of Notes equal in principal amount to such
beneficial interest and to have such Notes registered in its name. Notes so issued in certificated form will be issued in denominations of $2,000 or any larger amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000, and will be issued in registered form
only, without coupons. 
 Upon the exchange of a Global Note for Notes in certificated form, such Global Note shall be cancelled by the
Trustee. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee and, upon written request by the Company, a certificate of their disposal delivered to the Company. Definitive Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note pursuant
to this Section 2.08 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Note in global form, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the
Trustee in writing. The Trustee shall deliver such Notes as instructed in writing by the Depositary. 
 At the option of the Holders of
certificated Notes, certificated Notes may be exchanged for other certificated Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the certificated Notes to be exchanged at such
office or agency. Whenever any certificated Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the certificated Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

  
 32 

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

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing. 

The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes during a period beginning 15 Business Days
before any selection of Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the sending of the relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption, in whole or in
part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 
 SECTION 2.09. Replacement Notes. If any mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement
Note. If required by the Trustee or the Company, the Holder of such Note shall provide indemnity that is sufficient, in the judgment of the Trustee or the Company, to protect the Company, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from any
loss that any of them may suffer in connection with such replacement. If required by the Company, such Holder shall reimburse the Company for its reasonable expenses in connection with such replacement. 

Every replacement Note issued in accordance with this Section 2.09 shall be the valid obligation of the Company, evidencing the same debt
as the destroyed, lost or stolen Note, and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 

SECTION 2.10. Outstanding Notes. The Notes outstanding at any time shall be the entire principal amount of Notes represented by all of
the Global Notes and Definitive Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation, those subject to reductions in beneficial interests effected by the Trustee in accordance with the
provisions hereof, and those described in this Section 2.10 as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.11, a Note shall not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Note. 

If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09, it shall cease to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it
that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. 

  
 33 

 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.01, it shall cease to
be outstanding and interest on it shall cease to accrue. 
 If the Paying Agent (other than the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any
thereof) holds, on a Redemption Date, a Purchase Date or a maturity date, funds sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and shall cease to accrue interest. 

SECTION 2.11. Treasury Notes. In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Notes have concurred in any
direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned by the Company, or by any Affiliate of the Company, shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any
such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 

SECTION 2.12. Temporary Notes. Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and, upon receipt
of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for
temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes or Definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes, as applicable. After
preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Note will be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes. 

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

SECTION 2.13. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent
shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation
and shall dispose of cancelled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act or other applicable laws) unless by written order, signed by an Officer of the Company, the Company directs them to be returned to it. 

Certification of the disposal of all cancelled Notes shall be delivered to the Company from time to time upon request. The Company may not
issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 SECTION 2.14. Payment
of Interest; Defaulted Interest. Interest on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 
 If the Company defaults in a payment of interest on the
Notes which is payable (“Defaulted Interest”), it shall pay the Defaulted Interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the Defaulted Interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a

  
 34 

 
subsequent Special Record Date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on such
Notes and the date of the proposed payment. The Company shall fix or cause to be fixed each such Special Record Date and payment date, provided that no such Special Record Date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for
such Defaulted Interest. At least 15 days before the Special Record Date, the Company (or, upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company) shall send or cause to be sent to Holders a notice that
states the Special Record Date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions
of this Section 2.14 and Section 2.08, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which
were carried by such other Note. 
 SECTION 2.15. CUSIP or ISIN Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP”
and/or “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” and/or “ISIN” numbers in notices of redemption or Offers to Purchase 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 or notice of an Offer to Purchase and that reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or Offer to Purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in
the “CUSIP” and/or “ISIN” numbers. 
 SECTION 2.16. Additional Notes. The Company shall be entitled, subject to
its compliance with Section 4.09, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have identical terms as the Initial Notes issued on the date hereof, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price. The Initial Notes
issued on the date hereof and any Additional Notes shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture, including directions, waivers, amendments, consents, redemptions and Offers to Purchase; provided, however, that in
the event that any Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for federal income tax purposes, such non-fungible Additional Notes shall be issued with a separate CUSIP number and ISIN so they are distinguishable from the Initial Notes.

 With respect to any Additional Notes, the Company shall set forth in a Board Resolution and an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each
of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 
 (1) the aggregate principal amount of such
Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; and 
 (2) the issue price, the issue date and
the CUSIP and/or ISIN number of such Additional Notes. 

  
 35 

 SECTION 2.17. Record Date. The record date for purposes of determining the identity of
Holders of Notes entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent or permitted under this Indenture shall be determined as provided for in TIA §316(c). 

SECTION 2.18. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any
agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by the first paragraph
of Section 2.04 and subject to Sections 2.07 and 2.13) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 
 None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or
liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Note in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 

SECTION 2.19. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day
months. Interest on the Initial Notes will accrue from November 9, 2016. 
 ARTICLE 3 

REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT 

SECTION 3.01. Notices to Trustee. Except as set forth in Paragraph 5 of the Notes set forth in Exhibit A, the Company will not
be entitled to redeem the Notes at its option prior to their Stated Maturity. 
 If the Company elects to redeem Notes, it shall furnish to
the Trustee, at least 30 days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (a) the applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to
which the redemption shall occur, (b) the Redemption Date, (c) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (d) the Redemption Price. 

SECTION 3.02. Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, such Notes to be
redeemed shall be selected in accordance with the operating procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary. 

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for
partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; except that if all of the Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed,
the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such Holder, even if not an integral multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also
apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. 

  
 36 

 SECTION 3.03. Notice of Redemption. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to a
Redemption Date, the Company shall send or cause to be sent by electronic transmission (for Notes held in book entry form), or mail or cause to be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at
such Holder’s registered address appearing in the Note Register; provided that redemption notices may be sent more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance pursuant to Article 8
or a satisfaction and discharge pursuant to Article 11. 
 The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 

(a) the Redemption Date; 

(b) the appropriate method for calculation of the redemption price, but need not include the Redemption Price itself; the
actual Redemption Price shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. 

(c) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the
Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, if applicable, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; 

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

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

numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 At the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of
redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days (or such shorter period allowed by the Trustee), prior to the Redemption Date, an
Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice (in the name and at the expense of the Company) and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in this Section 3.03. 

  
 37 

 SECTION 3.04. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Subject to the following paragraph, once
notice of redemption is sent or mailed in accordance with Section 3.03, Notes called for redemption shall become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price. 

Any redemption of the Notes may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. In addition, if such
redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all of such conditions shall be
satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole
discretion) by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed. 
 SECTION 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior
to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on the Business Day prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold
in trust) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and, if applicable, accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) Business Days
after the Redemption Date, return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes to be
redeemed. 
 If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease
to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for purchase or redemption in accordance with Section 2.08, whether or not such Notes are presented for payment. If a Note is redeemed on or after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to
the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date. If any Note called for redemption shall not be
so paid upon surrender for redemption because of the failure of the Company to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal from the Redemption Date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any
interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01. 
 SECTION 3.06.
Notes Redeemed in Part. Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company shall issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate for the Holder at the expense of the
Company a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered. 
 SECTION 3.07. Mandatory

SECTION 3.08. Offer To Purchase. (a) In the event that, pursuant to Sections 4.12 or 4.16, the Company shall be required to
commence an Asset Sale Offer or a Change of Control Offer (each, an “Offer to Purchase”), it shall follow the procedures specified in this Section 3.08. 

  
 38 

 (b) The Company shall cause a notice of the Offer to Purchase to be sent at least once to the Dow
Jones News Service or similar business news service in the United States. 
 (c) The Company shall commence the Offer to Purchase by sending
by electronic transmission (for Notes held in book entry form) or mailing, by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder at such Holder’s address appearing in the Note Register, a notice the terms of which shall govern the
Offer to Purchase stating: 
 (1) that the Offer to Purchase is being made pursuant to this Section 3.08 and Sections
4.12 or 4.16, as the case may be, and, in the case of a Change of Control Offer, that a Change of Control has occurred, the circumstances and relevant facts regarding the Change of Control and that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to
Section 4.16; 
 (2) the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Sections 4.12 or 4.16, as the
case may be (the “Offer Amount”), the purchase price set forth in Sections 4.12 or 4.16, as applicable (the “Purchase Price”), the Offer Period and the Purchase Date (each as defined below); 

(3) except as provided in clause (9), that all Notes timely tendered and not withdrawn shall be accepted for payment; 

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

(5) that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer to Purchase
shall cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
 (6) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an
Offer to Purchase may elect to have Notes purchased equal to $2,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof only; 

(7) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Offer to Purchase shall be required to surrender the Note,
with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, the Depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a Paying Agent at the address specified
in the notice before the close of business on the third Business Day before the Purchase Date; 
 (8) that Holders shall be
entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the
Holder, the principal amount of the Note (or portions thereof) the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 

  
 39 

 (9) that, in the case of an Asset Sale Offer, if the aggregate principal amount
of Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of
$2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof shall be purchased); 
 (10) that Holders whose Notes were purchased
in part shall be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer); and 

(11) any other procedures the Holders must follow in order to tender their Notes (or portions thereof) for payment and the
procedures that Holders must follow in order to withdraw an election to tender Notes (or portions thereof) for payment. 
 (d) The Offer to
Purchase shall remain open for a period of at least 30 days but no more than 60 days following its commencement, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five
(5) Business Days (and in any event no later than the 60th day following the Change of Control) after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company shall purchase the Offer Amount or, if less than the
Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Offer to Purchase. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Offer
to Purchase on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date. 
 (e) On or prior to the Purchase Date, the Company shall, to the extent
lawful: 
 (1) accept for payment (on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary in connection with an Asset Sale Offer), the
Offer Amount of Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered; 

(2) deposit with the Paying Agent funds in an amount equal to the Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes

Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company and that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this
Section 3.08. 
 (f) The Paying Agent (or the Company, if acting as the Paying Agent) shall promptly (but in the case of a Change of
Control, not later than 60 days from the date of the Change of Control) deliver to each tendering Holder the Purchase Price deposited with the Paying Agent by the Company. In the event that any portion of the Notes surrendered is not purchased by
the Company, the Company shall promptly execute and issue a new Note in a 

  
 40 

 
principal amount equal to such unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered, and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
(or cause to be transferred by book-entry) such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered; provided, however, that each such new Note shall be in a principal amount of
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof. 

(g) If the Purchase Date is on or after a Regular Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid

 (h) The

to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with Sections 4.12 or 4.16, as applicable, this Section 3.08 or other provisions of this Indenture, the Company shall comply with applicable
securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Sections 4.12 or 4.16, as applicable, this Section 3.08 or such other provision by virtue of such compliance.

COVENANTS 
 SECTION 4.01.
Payment of Notes. The Company shall pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in this Indenture and the Notes. Principal, premium, if any, and interest shall
be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Company or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by the Company in immediately available funds and designated for and
sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. Such Paying Agent shall return to the Company promptly, and in any event, no later than five (5) Business Days following the date of payment, any money (including accrued
interest) that exceeds such amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest paid on the Notes. If a payment date is a Legal Holiday at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday,
and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period. 
 The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest
in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1.0% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in
any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

  
 41 

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

SECTION 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. (a) The Company shall maintain an office or agency (which may be an office or drop
facility of the Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where Notes may be presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes
and this Indenture may be served. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or
agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to
receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 
 (b) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other
offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 
 (c) The Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee, as one such office, drop facility or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 2.05. 
 SECTION 4.03. SEC
Reports. (a) Whether or not required, so long as the Notes are outstanding the Company will file with the SEC (unless the SEC will not accept such filing), within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and
deliver to the Trustee within 15 days after the filing of the same would be required by the SEC, copies of the quarterly and annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports, if any, which the Company is required to file with the
SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding that the Company may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, so long as the Notes are outstanding the Company will
file with the SEC, to the extent permitted, and provide the Trustee with such annual reports and such information, documents and other reports specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the SEC’s
rules and regulations. The Company will be deemed to have furnished such reports referred to in this section to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes if the Company has filed such reports with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system and such reports
are publicly available. 
 (b) 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 Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which
the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 

  
 42 

 SECTION 4.04. Compliance Certificate. (a) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee,
within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal
year, has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company and its Subsidiaries have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled their obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to
each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company and its Subsidiaries have kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the
performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what
action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

(b) The Company shall otherwise comply with TIA §314(a)(2). 

(c) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’
Certificate of any event that with the giving of notice and/or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

SECTION 4.05. Taxes. The Company shall pay, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes,
assessments and governmental levies, except such as are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders. 

SECTION 4.06. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any
time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this
Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power
herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted. 

SECTION 4.07. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 5, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve
and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each Restricted Subsidiary, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to
time) of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any Restricted Subsidiary, if the 

  
 43 

 
Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that
the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes, or that such preservation is not necessary in connection with any transaction not prohibited by this Indenture. 

SECTION 4.08. Payments for Consent. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or
indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is
offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 

SECTION 4.09. Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock. (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, Guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness
(including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock (including Disqualified Stock) other than to the Company; provided,
however, that the Company may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and any Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most
recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such preferred stock or Disqualified Stock is issued would have been
at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the preferred stock or Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may
be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 
 (b) So long as no Default shall have occurred or be continuing or would be caused
thereby, Section 4.09(a) will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 

(1) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of additional Indebtedness and letters of credit
under one or more Credit Facilities; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness and letters of credit of the Company and any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company incurred pursuant to this clause (1) (with letters of
credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and any Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) does not exceed the greater of (x) $3,000.0 million and (y) 20.0% of Consolidated Total
Assets (less the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness incurred by Securitization Subsidiaries and then outstanding pursuant to clause (13)); 

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

  
 44 

 (3) the incurrence by the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness represented by the Initial Notes, issued on the Issue Date; 
 (4) the incurrence by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or
improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed the greater of (x) $425.0 million and (y) 2.5% of Consolidated Total Assets at any time outstanding; 

(5) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for,
or the net proceeds of which are used to extend, defease, renew, refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was incurred under Section 4.09(a) or clauses (2), (3), (4), or this clause (5) of this
Section 4.09(b); 
 (6) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness
between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the
Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) any subsequent sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed, in each case, to
constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); 

(7) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification,
adjustment of purchase price, earn out or other similar Obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any business, assets or shares of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company,
other than Guarantees of Indebtedness incurred by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or shares of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; 

(8) the incurrence of Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries represented by (a) letters of
credit for the account of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (b) other obligations to reimburse third parties pursuant to any surety bond, performance bond or other similar arrangements, which letters of credit or other
obligations, as the case may be, are intended to provide security for provider claims, workers’ compensation claims, payment obligations in connection with sales tax and insurance or other similar requirements in the ordinary course of
business; 
 (9) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations; provided
that such Hedging Obligations are related to business 

  
 45 

 
transactions of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business and are entered into for bona fide hedging purposes (and not for speculative purposes)
of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company); 

(10) the Guarantee by the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company of Indebtedness of the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 4.09; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is incurred by the Company and is subordinated to the Notes, then the
Guarantee of such Indebtedness by any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be subordinated to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 

(11) Indebtedness incurred by a Foreign Restricted Subsidiary which, when aggregated with the principal amount of all other
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (11) and then outstanding, does not exceed the greater of (x) $550.0 million or (y) 3.25% of the Company’s Consolidated Total Assets; 

(12) Acquired Debt or other Indebtedness, which in the case of other Indebtedness, is incurred reasonably contemporaneously to
finance an acquisition, merger, consolidation or amalgamation; provided that after giving effect thereto, (a) the Company would be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
test in Section 4.09(a), or (b) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding such incurrence for which internal financial statements are available would be no worse than immediately prior thereto;

 (13) Indebtedness incurred by a Securitization Subsidiary in connection with a Qualified Securitization Transaction that
is not recourse with respect to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that in the event such Securitization Subsidiary ceases to qualify as a Securitization Subsidiary or such Indebtedness becomes recourse to
the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, such Indebtedness will, in each case, be deemed to be, and must be classified by the Company as, incurred at such time (or at the time initially incurred) under one or more of the other provisions
of this Section 4.09; 
 (14) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of Indebtedness
to the extent the proceeds thereof are used to purchase Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer or to defease or discharge Notes, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 

(15) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of Indebtedness consisting of (a) the
financing of insurance premiums or (b) take or pay obligations in supply agreements, in each case in the ordinary course of business; 

  
 46 

 (16) Real Estate Indebtedness, not to exceed in the aggregate at any one time
outstanding the greater of (x) $850.0 million or (y) 5.0% of the Company’s Consolidated Total Assets;

(18) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal
amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to extend, defease, renew, refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (18), not to
exceed the greater of (x) $850.0 million and (y) 5.0% of Consolidated Total Assets; 
 (19) Indebtedness of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient
funds, provided that such Indebtedness is satisfied within five business days of incurrence; and 
 (20) Indebtedness
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company in respect of cash management services entered into in the ordinary course of business and Guarantees of the Obligations of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such
indebtedness. 
 (c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the
criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (20) of Section 4.09(b) or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), in each case, as of the date of incurrence thereof,
the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify (or later reclassify in whole or in part), or divide (or later redivide in whole or in part) such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this
Section 4.09 and such Indebtedness will be treated as having been incurred pursuant to such clauses or Section 4.09(a), as the case may be, designated by the Company. Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the Issue Date will
at all times be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt. The accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount,
the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of Equity Interests as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified
Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 4.09. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company may incur pursuant to this covenant shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency
values. 

  
 47 

 The amount of Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (1) the accreted value thereof, in the case
of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount, (2) the principal amount thereof, in the case of any other Indebtedness, (3) in the case of the Guarantee by the specified Person of any indebtedness of any other Person, the maximum
liability to which the specified Person may be subject upon the occurrence of the contingency giving rise to the obligation and (4) in the case of Indebtedness of others guaranteed by means of a Lien on any asset of the specified Person, the
lesser of (A) the Fair Market Value of such asset on the date on which Indebtedness is required to be determined pursuant to this Indenture and (B) the amount of the Indebtedness so secured. 

(d) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness which by
its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) is subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, unless made expressly subordinate to the Notes to the same extent
and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is subordinated pursuant to subordination provisions that are most favorable to the holders of any other Indebtedness of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be. 

SECTION 4.10. Restricted Payments. (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly
or indirectly: 
 (1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution (A) on account of the
Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or (B) to the
direct or indirect holders of the Company’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends, payments or distributions (i) payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
Stock) of the Company or (ii) to the Company or a wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or to all holders of Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary of the Company on a pro rata basis); 

(2) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or
consolidation involving the Company) any Equity Interests of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any such Equity Interests owned by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries); 

(3) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any
Subordinated Obligations, except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or 
 (4) make any
Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (3) above and this clause (4) being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), 

unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: 

(A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment;
and 

  
 48 

 (B) the Company would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving
pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the most recently ended four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
test set forth in Section 4.09(a); and 
 (C) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other
Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (b)(2), (3), (5), (6), (7) and (9) of this Section 4.10), is less than the sum, without
duplication, of: 
 (I) (I) 50.0% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company for the period (taken as one accounting
period) from the beginning of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 to the end of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such
Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100.0% of such deficit), plus 
 (II) (II) 100.0% of the
aggregate net cash proceeds and the Fair Market Value of property other than cash received by the Company since February 11, 2016 as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of the Company (other
than Disqualified Stock) or from the issue or sale of convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Stock or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of the Company, in either case, that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests
of the Company (other than Equity Interests or Disqualified Stock or debt securities sold to a Subsidiary of the Company), plus 

(III) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after February 11, 2016 is sold for cash or otherwise
liquidated or repaid for cash, the cash proceeds and Fair Market Value, of property and marketable securities received with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any), plus 

(IV) to the extent any Unrestricted Subsidiary has been redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company under the terms
of this Indenture or has been merged, consolidated or amalgamated with or into, or transfers or conveys assets to, or is liquidated into, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the
Company’s and the Restricted Subsidiaries’ aggregate Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation, combination or transfer (or of the assets transferred or conveyed, as applicable), plus 

(V) $500.0 million. 

  
 49 

 (b) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused
thereby, the preceding provisions will not prohibit: 
 (1) the payment of any dividend or consummation of any redemption
within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or the giving of a redemption notice, respectively, if at the date of declaration or the giving of a redemption notice, the dividend payment or redemption, respectively, would have
complied with the provisions of this Indenture; 
 (2) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, repayment, defeasance or other
acquisition of any Subordinated Obligations or of any Equity Interests of the Company in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) of, Equity Interests
of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock); provided, however, that the amount of any such net cash proceeds from such sale that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, repayment, defeasance or other
acquisition will be excluded from Section 4.10(a)(4)(C)(II); 
 (3) the redemption, repurchase, repayment, retirement,
defeasance or other acquisition of any Subordinated Obligations with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided, however, that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for
any such redemption, repurchase, repayment, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be excluded from Section 4.10(a)(4)(C)(II); 

(4) the redemption, repurchase or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (a) held by any current or former director, officer, employee or consultant (or the estate, heirs, family members, spouse, former spouse, domestic partner or former domestic partner of any of the foregoing)
of the Company’s (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) pursuant to any management equity subscription plan or agreement, stock option or stock purchase plan or agreement or employee benefit plan as may be adopted by the Company from time to
time or pursuant to any agreement with any director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company or (b) from an employee of the Company upon the termination of such employee’s employment with the Company; provided,
however, that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests in reliance on this clause (4) may not exceed $15.0 million in any twelve-month period, with any unused amounts in any
twelve-month period being carried forward to the next two succeeding twelve-month periods and provided, further, that such amount in any twelve-month period may be increased by an amount not to exceed (A) the cash proceeds from
the sale of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Company, in each case to members of management, directors or consultants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that occurs after the Issue Date, provided that such cash
proceeds utilized for redemptions, repurchases or other acquisitions or retirements will be excluded from Section 4.10(a)(4)(C)(II) plus (B) the cash proceeds of “key man” life insurance policies received by the Company or its
Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date (provided that the Company may elect to apply all or any portion of the aggregate increase contemplated 

  
 50 

 
by clauses (A) and (B) above in any twelve-month period, it being understood that the forgiveness of any debt by such Person shall not be a Restricted Payment hereunder) less
(C) the amount of any Restricted Payments previously made pursuant to clauses (A) and (B) of this clause (4)); 

(5) repurchases, acquisitions or retirements of Capital Stock of the Company deemed to occur upon the exercise or vesting of
stock options, warrants or restricted stock or similar rights under employee benefit plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries if such Capital Stock represents all or a portion of the exercise price thereof or withholding tax thereon; 

(6) redemptions of common stock of the Company so long as the Total Debt Ratio is no more than 2.25 to 1.0, both as of the date
thereof (based on a computation period of the twelve-month period most recently ended) and on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such redemption; 

(7) cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Capital Stock of the Company; provided, however, that any such cash payment shall not be for the purpose of evading the limitation of this Section 4.10 (as determined in good faith
by the Board of Directors of the Company); 
 (8) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of
any Subordinated Obligations or Disqualified Stock pursuant to provisions substantially identical to those in Sections 4.16 and 4.12; provided that a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, has been made and all Notes
tendered by Holders thereof in connection with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value; 

(9) other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount which, when taken together with all other Restricted Payments made
pursuant to this clause (9), do not exceed the greater of (x) $850.0 million and (y) 5.0% of Consolidated Total Assets; and 

(10) the payment by the Company of dividends on its common stock in an aggregate annual amount of $50.0 million. 

(c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the assets,
property or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company makes a Restricted Payment
which at the time of the making of such Restricted Payment would in the good faith determination of the Company be permitted under the provisions of this Indenture, such Restricted Payment shall be deemed to have been made in compliance with this
Indenture notwithstanding any subsequent adjustments made in good faith to the Company’s financial statements affecting Consolidated Net Income of the Company for any period 

(d) In the event that a Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments
described in clauses (1) through 

  
 51 

 
(10) of Section 4.10(b) or Permitted Investments described in the definition thereof, the Company in its sole discretion may divide, classify or from time to time reclassify all or any
portion of such Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment in any manner that complies with this covenant and such Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment shall be treated as having been made pursuant only to the clause or clauses of this
covenant or of the definition of Permitted Investment to which such Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment has been classified or reclassified. 

SECTION 4.11. Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create,
incur or assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual Liens of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) against or upon any of their respective properties or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, or any proceeds,
income or profit therefrom or assign or convey any right to receive income therefrom, to secure any Indebtedness of the Company unless prior to, or contemporaneously therewith, the Notes are equally and ratably secured by a Lien on such property,
assets, proceeds, income or profit; provided, however, that if such Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the Notes, the Lien securing such Indebtedness will be subordinated and junior to the Lien securing the Notes with the same
relative priority as such Indebtedness has with respect to the Notes. 
 SECTION 4.12. Asset Sales. The Company will not, and will
not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
 (1) the Company (or the Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold, leased, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of or Equity Interests of any Restricted Subsidiary
of the Company issued, sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of as determined in good faith by the Company’s management; 

(2) at least 75.0% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form
of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this clause (2), each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 
 (a) any
liabilities, as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that
are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed by the transferee (or a third party on behalf of the transferee) of any such assets whereby the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is released from further liability whether
specifically agreed by such transferee or third party or by operation of law; 
 (b) any securities, notes or other
obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents
received in that conversion; and 
 (c) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Company or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, 

  
 52 

 
taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) not to exceed 5.0% of the Consolidated Total Assets as of the end of the most recently
ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available prior to the date on which such Designated Non-cash Consideration is received (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) shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this Section 4.12 and for no other purpose; and 

(3) the Company delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee certifying that such Asset Sale complies with the
foregoing clauses (1) and (2). 
 To the extent that the Fair Market Value of any Asset Sale exceeds 10.0% of Consolidated Total Assets
as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available prior to the date on which such Net Proceeds are received (with the Fair Market Value of each Asset Sale being measured at the time of such
Asset Sale), then within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from any such Asset Sale, the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply those Net Proceeds (but shall only be required to apply that portion of the Net Proceeds from such
Asset Sale that exceeds 10.0% of Consolidated Total Assets) at its option (or any portion thereof): 
 (4) to permanently
repay Senior Debt of the Company (other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company) and, if the Senior Debt repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; 

(5) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or all of the Capital Stock of, another Person engaged in a Permitted
Business; or 
 (6) to acquire other long-term assets or property that are used in a Permitted Business; 

provided that a binding commitment to apply Net Proceeds as set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above shall be treated as a permitted
application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment
within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, then the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be permitted to apply the Net Proceeds in any manner set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above before the expiration of such 180-day period and, in the event the Company or such Restricted
Subsidiary fails to do so, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds (as defined below). Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net
Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that were required to be applied in
accordance with the first sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph and that are not so 

  
 53 

 
applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $100.0 million, within 30 days
thereof, the Company will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and, if the Company is required to do so under the terms of any other Indebtedness that is pari
passu with the Notes, such other Indebtedness on a pro rata basis with the Notes, that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100.0% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of the purchase of all properly tendered and not withdrawn Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use such
remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess
Proceeds, the Trustee will select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero. 

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to
the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of this
Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Sections 4.12 or 3.08 by virtue of such compliance. 

SECTION 4.13. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. The Company will not, and will not permit any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to: 

(a) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or
with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(b) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 

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

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 

(1) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and Credit Facilities (including the Revolving Credit Facility) as in effect on
the Issue Date and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments, 

  
 54 

 
modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are no more restrictive (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or senior
management of the Company), taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the Issue Date; 

(2) this Indenture and the Notes; 

(3) applicable law, rule, regulation or order of, or arrangement with, any regulatory body or agency; 

(4) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any
Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by the terms of this
Indenture; 
 (5) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers or governmental regulatory bodies
or required by insurance, surety or bonding companies, in each case pursuant to contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(6) customary non-assignment provisions in leases and other contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and
consistent with industry practices; 
 (7) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of
business that impose restrictions on the property so acquired of the nature described in clause (c) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.13; 

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

(9) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided, however, that the restrictions contained in the agreements
governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or
senior management of the Company); 
 (10) Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under the
provisions of Section 4.11 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; and 

  
 55 

 (11) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or
property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, which encumbrance or restriction is applicable only to the assets or property that are
the subject of such agreements. 
 SECTION 4.14. Affiliate Transactions. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement,
understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than
those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and 

(2) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in
excess of $50.0 million, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 4.14 and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of
the Board of Directors of the Company. 
 The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be
subject to the provisions of this Section 4.14: 
 (1) transactions solely between or among the Company and/or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries or solely among its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (2) issuances or sales of Equity Interests of the
Company (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of the Company; 
 (3) reasonable and customary directors’ fees,
indemnification and similar arrangements, consulting fees, employee salaries, bonuses or employment agreements, compensation or employee benefit arrangements and incentive arrangements with any officer, director or employee of the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Company entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (4) any payments or other
transactions pursuant to a Tax Sharing Agreement; 
 (5) any Restricted Payments, Permitted Investments or other transactions
made in compliance with Section 4.10; 
 (6) loans and advances to non-executive officers and employees of the Company
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business made in accordance with the past practices of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  
 56 

 (7) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any amendment thereto so long
as any such amendment is not more disadvantageous to the Holders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date; 

(8) sales or other dispositions of accounts receivable or licensing royalties and related assets to a Securitization Subsidiary
in a Qualified Securitization Transaction; provided that such accounts receivable or licensing royalties are customarily transferred in such a transaction; 

(9) any employment agreements, consultant agreements or employee benefit arrangements with any employee, consultant, officer or
director of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, including under any stock option, stock appreciation right, stock incentive or similar plan, entered into in the ordinary course of business and the transactions pursuant thereto; 

(10) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Transaction; 

(11) transactions entered into by a Person prior to the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or is
merged or consolidated into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (provided that such transaction is not entered into in contemplation of such event); 

(12) transactions in which the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a
letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or stating that the terms are not materially less favorable to the Company or its relevant
Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s length basis; 

(13) (a) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, landlords, lessors, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in
each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture that are fair to the Company, or are on terms at least as favorable as would reasonably have been entered into at such time with an
unaffiliated party (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company) and (b) transactions with joint ventures or Unrestricted Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

(14) transactions with a Person that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company, directly or indirectly, owns
Equity Interests in such Person; and 
 (15) transactions with an Affiliate of the Company where the only consideration paid
by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company is Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock). 
 SECTION 4.15.
Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Company’s Board of Directors may designate any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default and if that
designation 

  
 57 

 
otherwise is consistent with the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. If any of the Company’s Restricted Subsidiaries is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair
Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available
for Restricted Payments under Section 4.10(a) or under the definition of “Permitted Investments”, as determined by the Company. The designation of such a Subsidiary or Person as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will only be permitted if the
deemed Investment would be permitted at the time the Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and, in any case, if that Subsidiary or Person otherwise satisfies the requirements set forth in the definition of Unrestricted
Subsidiary. 
 Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with
the Trustee a certified copy of the Board Resolution of the Company giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 4.10.
If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Indenture and any Indebtedness of such
Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 4.09, the Company will be in Default of such Section. The
Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary
of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 4.09, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had
occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. All Subsidiaries of an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall also be Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

 SECTION 4.16. Repurchase at the Option of Holders Upon a Change of Control. (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control,
the Company shall, within 30 days following the date upon which a Change of Control occurred, make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3.08. Each Holder shall have the right
to accept such offer and require the Company to repurchase all or any portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer at a purchase price, in cash (the
“Change of Control Amount”), equal to 101.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to the Purchase Date (subject to the right of Holders of record
on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date falling prior to the Purchase Date). 
 (b) The Company will
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 Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer. A Change of Control Offer may 

  
 58 

 
be made in advance of a Change of Control and may be conditional upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change
of Control Offer is made. 
 SECTION 4.17. Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness. The Company will not permit any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to guarantee or pledge any assets to secure the payment of any other Indebtedness of the Company unless such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture
providing for the guarantee of the payment of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary. The Subsidiary Guarantee will be (1) senior to such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee of or pledge to secure such other Indebtedness if such other
Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes; or (2) pari passu with such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee of or pledge to secure such other Indebtedness if such other Indebtedness is not subordinated to the Notes. 

The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released: 

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by
way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition is permitted under Section 4.12; 

(2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not
(either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, if the sale or other disposition does not violate the provisions of this Indenture, including Section 4.12; and such Guarantor ceases to be a
Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such sale or other disposition; 
 (3) if the Company designates any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

(4) upon legal defeasance, covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the Notes as provided under Sections 8.02, 8.03
and 11.01; or 
 (5) if such Guarantor is released from the underlying Guarantee of Indebtedness giving rise to the execution
of a Subsidiary Guarantee. 
 The form of Subsidiary Guarantee is attached hereto as Exhibit B and the related form of supplemental indenture is
attached hereto as Exhibit C. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 4.17, if the Company guarantees Indebtedness incurred by any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, such Guarantee by the Company will not require any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to provide a Subsidiary Guarantee for the Notes. 
 SECTION 4.18. Covenant Termination. Following the first
day: 

  
 59 

 (a) the Notes have an Investment Grade Rating; and 

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

the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall cease to be subject to the provisions of: 

(1) Section 4.09; 
 (2)
Section 4.10; 
 (3) Section 4.12 

(4) Section 4.13; 
 (5)
Section 4.14; and 
 (6) Section 4.17 

(collectively, the “Terminated Covenants”). No Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under the Indenture
or the Notes with respect to the Terminated Covenants based on, and none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring after the Notes attain an Investment Grade Rating, regardless of
whether such actions or event would have been permitted if the applicable Terminated Covenants remained in effect. The Terminated Covenants will not be reinstated even if the Company subsequently does not satisfy the requirements set forth in
clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 4.18. After the Terminated Covenants have been terminated, Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall remain subject to the provisions of Section 4.16 and the following Sections: 

(1) Section 4.03; 
 (2)
Section 4.08; 
 (3) Section 4.11; and 

(4) Section 5.01 (other than the financial test set forth in clause (a)(4) thereof). 

ARTICLE 5 
 SUCCESSORS 

SECTION 5.01. Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets. (a) The Company may not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or
merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation) or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties of the Company or assets in one or more
related transactions, to another Person, unless: 
 (1) either: 

  
 60 

 (A) the Company is the surviving person or 

(B) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made (the “Surviving Entity”) is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of
Columbia; 
 (2) the Surviving Entity expressly assumes, pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee all
the Obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Indenture; 
 (3) immediately after giving effect to such transaction
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (4) except with respect to a consolidation or merger
of the Company with or into a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, the Company or the Surviving Entity would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred
at the beginning of the four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding such transaction for which internal financial statements are available, (a) be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section 4.09(a) or (b) have a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio that is no worse than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company for four full fiscal quarters immediately preceding such transaction for which
internal financial statements are available; and 
 (5) the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee,

thereto comply with this Section 5.01 and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction or series of transactions have been satisfied. 

(b) The sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of one or
more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties or assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be
the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company. 
 SECTION 5.02. Successor Corporation
Substituted. The Surviving Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company or a Guarantor, as applicable, under this Indenture; provided, however, that the predecessor entity
shall not be released from any of the obligations or covenants under this Indenture, including with respect to the payment of the Notes and obligations under a Subsidiary Guarantee, if any, in the case of: 

(a) a sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or other disposition (unless such sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance or other
disposition is of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, taken as a whole), or 

  
 61 

 (b) a lease.

which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Restricted

 (A)
is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of any applicable grace period (a “Payment Default”); or 

(B) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, 

  
 62 

 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other
such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $125.0 million or more;

 SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If any Event of Default (other than those of the type
described in Section 6.01(i) or (j)) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, and the Trustee upon the request of Holders of 25.0% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall, or the Holders of at least 25.0% in aggregate
principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, of all the outstanding Notes, to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company and the Trustee specifying
the respective Event of Default and that such notice is a notice of acceleration (the “Acceleration Notice”), and the same shall become immediately due and payable. 

In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or (j) the principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, of all of the outstanding Notes shall become due and payable immediately without any further action or notice on the part of the Trustee or the Holders. Holders may not enforce this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this
Indenture. 
 SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available
remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 

The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay
or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies shall be cumulative to
the extent permitted by law. 
 SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Defaults. (a) The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes (i) waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under this Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of
Default (A) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on the Notes and (B) in respect of a covenant or provision which under this Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each
Note affected by such modification or amendment and (ii) rescind any acceleration and its consequences with respect to the Notes. 

(b) Upon any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be
deemed cured for every purpose of this Indenture but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. Subject to Sections 7.01, 7.02(f) (including the Trustee’s receipt of the security or
indemnification described therein) and 7.07, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then 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 Notes. 

  
 64 

 SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. No Holder shall have any right to institute any
proceeding with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy hereunder, unless: 

(a) such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default or the Trustee receives the
notice from the Company; 
 (b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding have made
written request and offered indemnity to the Trustee reasonably satisfactory to it to institute such proceeding as Trustee; and 

(c) the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days. 
 The preceding
limitations shall not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder for enforcement of payment of principal of, and premium, if any, or interest on, a Note on or after the respective due dates for such payments set forth in such Note. 

A Holder may not use this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over
another Holder. 
 SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture
(including Section 6.06), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes (including in connection with an
Offer to Purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 

SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (b) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest then due and owing (together with interest on
overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest) and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel. 
 SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee shall be authorized to file such proofs of claim
and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the
Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its assets or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and 

  
 65 

 
any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its agents and counsel,
and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, moneys,
securities and any other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the
Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the
claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this
Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 
 First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due
under Section 7.07, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

Second: to Holders 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, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; and 

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. 

SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and the court in its discretion may 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 the party litigant. This Section 6.11 shall not
apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the Company, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07, or a suit by Holders of more than 10.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 

ARTICLE 7 
 TRUSTEE 

SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs. 

  
 66 

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

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

(2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. However, in the case of certificates or opinions specifically required by any provision
herein to be furnished to it, the Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or
other facts stated therein). 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liabilities for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (1) this clause (c) does not limit the effect of clause
(b) of this Section; 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
Responsible Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (3) the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05. 

(d) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to
clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 7.01. 
 (e) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or incur any liability. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights and powers under this Indenture at the request of any Holders, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and
indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (f) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money
received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

SECTION 7.02. Rights of Trustee. Subject to TIA §315: 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, 

  
 67 

 
may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be
entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel or
both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel
or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 

(c) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it believes to be authorized or
within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture. 
 (d) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this
Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 

(e) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee 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 a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from the Company or the
Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, and such notice references the specific Default or Event of Default, the Notes and this Indenture. 

(f) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its power and duties
hereunder. 
 (g) The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the Company’s covenants herein.

 (h) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder. 

(i) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the
request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it
in compliance with such request or direction. 
 (j) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special,
indirect, 

  
 68 

 
or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or
damage and regardless of the form of action. 
 (k) [reserved]. 

(l) 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. 

(m) The Trustee 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, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation
into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at
the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

(n) None of the provisions of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur
any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to
it against such risk or liability is not assured to it. 
 SECTION 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual
or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any
conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee or resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee shall also be subject to Sections 7.10 and
7.11. 
 SECTION 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the
validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Notes, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Company or upon the Company’s direction under any provision of this Indenture,
it shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee, and it shall not be responsible for any statement or recital herein or any statement in the Notes or any other document in
connection with the sale of the Notes or pursuant to this Indenture other than its certificate of authentication. 
 SECTION 7.05. Notice
of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such Default or Event of Default at its Corporate Trust Office, the Trustee shall send to Holders a

  
 69 

 
notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note,
the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders. 

SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the Issue
Date, and for so long as Notes remain outstanding, the Trustee shall send to the Holders a brief report dated as of such reporting date that complies with TIA §313(a) (but if no event described in TIA §313(a) has occurred within the twelve
months preceding the reporting date, no report need be transmitted). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA §313(b)(2). The Trustee shall also send all reports as required by TIA §313(c). 

A copy of each report at the time of its sending to the Holders shall be sent to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on
which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA §313(d). The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange and any delisting thereof. 

SECTION 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for its
acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable
disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 

The Company, and the Guarantors, if any, shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Trustee, its directors, officers, employees or agents or
any predecessor Trustee against any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities or expenses, including incidental and out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (for purposes of this Section 7.07,
“losses”) incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this
Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent
such losses have been determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim of which a Responsible Officer has received written notice and for which it may seek
indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section 7.07. The Company shall defend the claim, and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have
separate counsel if the Trustee has been reasonably advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Company and in the reasonable judgment of such
counsel it is advisable for the Trustee to engage separate counsel, and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss incurred by the Trustee through the Trustee’s own willful misconduct or gross negligence. 

  
 70 

 The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, if any, under this Section 7.07 shall
survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the resignation or removal of the Trustee and payment in full of the Notes. 
 To
secure the Company’s and Guarantors’, if any, payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal,
premium, if any, and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 When the
Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or (j) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended
to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
 SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. A resignation or removal
of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 

The Trustee may resign in writing at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Company and be discharged from the trust hereby created
by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing. The Company may remove the Trustee if: 

(a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the Trustee under any
Bankruptcy Law; 
 (c) a custodian or public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 

(d) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 

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

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the
Company, or the Holders of at least 10.0% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

  
 71 

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

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company and enter into a
supplemental indenture with the retiring Trustee and the Company in which it assumes the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the
successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall send a notice of its succession to Holders. Subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.07, the retiring Trustee
shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee; provided, however, that all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder shall have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
 In the
case of an appointment hereunder of a separate or successor Trustee with respect to the Notes, the Company, any retiring Trustee and each successor or separate Trustee with respect to the Notes shall execute and deliver a supplemental indenture
hereto (1) which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of any retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes have been assumed by a successor Trustee and in
the case where any retiring Trustee is retiring only with respect to some of the Notes that the rights, powers, trusts and duties of any retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes as to which any such retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in such retiring Trustee and (2) that 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 Trustee co-trustees of the same trust and that each such separate, retiring or successor Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and
apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any such other Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc.
If the Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or banking association, the successor corporation or banking association without any further act
shall, if such successor corporation or banking association is otherwise eligible hereunder, be the successor Trustee. 
 SECTION 7.10.
Eligibility; Disqualification. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million (or a wholly-owned subsidiary of a bank or trust company, or of a bank
holding company, the principal subsidiary of which is a bank or trust company having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million) as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 

  
 72 

 This Indenture shall always have a Trustee who satisfies the requirements of TIA §310(a)(1),
(2) and (5). The Trustee is subject to TIA §310(b). 
 SECTION 7.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. The
Trustee is subject to TIA §311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA §311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. 

ARTICLE 8 
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE
AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE 
 SECTION 8.01. Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The Company may, at its option
and at any time, elect to have either Sections 8.02 or 8.03 be applied to all outstanding Notes upon compliance with the conditions set forth in this Article 8. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution set forth in an
Officers’ Certificate. 
 SECTION 8.02. Legal Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01
of the option applicable to this Section 8.02, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be deemed to have been discharged from its Obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes on the
date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”) and each Guarantor, if any, shall be released from all of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee. For this purpose, Legal
Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Notes, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 8.05 and
the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) of this Section 8.02, and to have satisfied all its other Obligations under the Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company,
shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Notes to receive solely from the
trust fund described in Section 8.04, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Company’s Obligations with
respect to such Notes under Article 2 and Sections 4.01 and 4.02, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and the Company’s and the Guarantor’s, if any, Obligations in connection therewith
and (d) this Article 8. If the Company exercises under Section 8.01 the option applicable to this Section 8.02, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be
accelerated because of an Event of Default. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Company may exercise its option under this Section 8.02 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.03. 

SECTION 8.03. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under Section 8.01 of the option applicable to this
Section 8.03, the Company shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from its Obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.09, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.16 and 4.17, and the
operation of Section 5.01(a)(4), with respect to the outstanding Notes on and after the date the 

  
 73 

 
conditions set forth in Section 8.04 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”) and each Guarantor, if any, shall be released from all of its Obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee with respect to such covenants in connection with such outstanding Notes and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders
(and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting
purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant,
whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01, but, except as specified above in this Section 8.03, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. If the Company exercises under
Section 8.01 the option applicable to this Section 8.03, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default specified in clause
(c) (with respect to the covenant contained in Section 5.01(a)(4)), clause (d) (with respect to the covenants contained in Section 4.09, 4.10, 4.12 and 4.16), clause (f) (with respect to the covenants contained in Sections
4.11, 4.13, 4.14 and 4.17), and clauses (g), (h), (i) and (j) (but in the case of (i) and (j) of Section 6.01, with respect to Significant Subsidiaries only). 

SECTION 8.04. Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of either
Section 8.02 or 8.03 to the outstanding Notes. 
 The Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance may be exercised only if: 

(a) the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee, in trust (the “defeasance trust”), for the benefit of
the Holders, cash in Dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in Dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants (a copy of which shall be provided to the Trustee), to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity or on the next Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Company shall specify
whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to such particular Redemption Date; 
 (b) in the case of Legal
Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel confirming that (i) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) subsequent to the Issue Date, there
has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal
income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; 

  
 74 

 (c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

(d) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to make such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing); 

(e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under,
any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is a party or by which the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is bound; 

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

(g) the Company delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 SECTION 8.05. Deposited Cash
and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 8.06, all cash and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying
trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions
of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of
principal, premium, if any, and interest but such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable
Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 

Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the
request of the Company any cash or non-callable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 8.04 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants expressed in a written

  
 75 

 
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the certification delivered under Section 8.04(a)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be
deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 SECTION 8.06. Repayment to Company. The Trustee shall
promptly, and in any event, no later than five (5) Business Days, pay to the Company after request therefor, any excess money held with respect to the Notes at such time in excess of amounts required to pay any of the Company’s Obligations
then owing with respect to the Notes. 
 Any cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or
then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for one year after such principal, premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the
Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying
Agent with respect to such cash and securities, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may
at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such cash and securities remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein,
which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company. 

SECTION 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any cash or non-callable Government Securities in
accordance with Sections 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company’s obligations under this
Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Sections 8.02 or 8.03 until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such cash and securities in accordance with Sections
8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Company makes any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its Obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of
the Holders to receive such payment from the cash and securities held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 

SECTION 9.01. Without Consent of Holders of Notes. Notwithstanding Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may amend or

inconsistency; 

  
 76 

 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes; 
 (3) to provide for the assumption of the Company’s obligations to Holders of Notes in the case of
a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or any other transaction that complies with this Indenture; 

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely
affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder; 
 (5) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in
accordance with this Indenture; or 
 (6) to comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the
qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

indenture and/or Guarantee with respect to the Notes; 
 (8) to evidence and provide the acceptance of the appointment of a
successor trustee under this Indenture; 
 (9) to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in favor of the
trustee for the benefit of the Holders as additional security for the payment and performance of the Company’s or a Guarantor’s Obligations under this Indenture in any property or assets; 

(10) to comply with the rules of any applicable Depositary; 

(11) to release a Guarantor from its Guarantee pursuant to the terms of this Indenture when permitted or required pursuant to
the terms herein; 
 (12) to conform the text of this Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees to the corresponding provision
of the “Description of Notes” in the Company’s prospectus related to the Notes to the extent that such provision in the “Description of Notes” was intended to be a substantially verbatim recitation of a provision of this
Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees; or 
 (13) to comply with Section 5.01. 

SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders of Notes. Except as provided below in this Section 9.02, the Company and the Trustee may
amend or supplement this Indenture and the Notes with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in
connection with a purchase of or tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07, any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the
consent of the Holders of at least 

  
 77 

 
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of or tender offer
or exchange offer for the Notes). 
 Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not (with respect
to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
 (1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any Note or alter the
provisions with respect to the redemption or repurchase of the Notes relating to Section 4.16 (and any applicable definitions); 

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any Note; 

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

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

(6) make any change in the provisions (including applicable definitions) of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults
or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes; 
 (7)
waive a redemption or repurchase payment with respect to any Note (including a payment required by the provisions described under Sections 4.12 or 4.16; 

(8) make any change in the ranking of the Notes in a manner adverse to the Holders thereof; or 

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

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any
supplemental indenture. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders
after such record date; provided that unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 120 days after such record date, any such consent previously given
shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be cancelled and of no further effect. 
 It shall not be necessary for the
consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

  
 78 

 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the
Company shall send to the Holder of each Note affected thereby to such Holder’s address appearing in the Note Register a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to send such notice, or any
defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture or waiver. 

SECTION 9.03. Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes shall be set forth in
an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the TIA as then in effect. 
 SECTION 9.04. Revocation and Effect of
Consents. Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion thereof that evidences the same debt as the
consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note or portion thereof if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation
before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver shall become effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter shall bind every Holder. 

SECTION 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver
on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Company in exchange for all Notes may issue and, upon receipt of a Company Order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or
waiver. 
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment,
supplement or waiver. 
 SECTION 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental indenture
authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until its Board of
Directors (or committee serving a similar function) approves it. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be provided with and (subject to Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amended or supplemental indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligations of
the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions and that such amended or supplemental indenture complies with the provisions hereof (including Section 9.03). 

  
 79 

 ARTICLE 10 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES 

SECTION 10.01. Subsidiary Guarantee. Subject to this Article 10, any Guarantor that executes and delivers a supplemental indenture
pursuant to this Indenture shall, upon execution and delivery of its supplemental indenture, jointly and severally and unconditionally guarantee to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns: (a) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, the due and
punctual payment of interest on the overdue principal of and premium, if any, and, to the extent permitted by law, interest, and the due and punctual performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee under this
Indenture and the Notes, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or
performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration pursuant to Section 6.02, redemption or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so
guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations with regard to its Subsidiary Guarantee shall be joint and several, unconditional,
irrespective of the validity or enforceability of the Notes or the obligations of the Company under this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, the recovery of any judgment against the Company or any other obligor with respect to
this Indenture, the Notes or the Obligations of the Company under this Indenture or the Notes, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances (other than complete performance) which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor further, to the extent permitted by law, waives and relinquishes all claims, rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any such
claims, rights or remedies, including but not limited to: (a) any right to require any of the Trustee, the Holders or the Company (each a “Benefited Party”), as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to
(1) proceed against the Company, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees or any other Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Company, any such other
guarantor or any other Person, (3) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Benefited Party in favor of the Company or any other Person, or (4) pursue any other remedy in the power
of any Benefited Party whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Company including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the
unenforceability of the Obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Company from any cause other than payment in full of the Obligations under the
Subsidiary Guarantees; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense
based upon any Benefited Party’s errors or omissions 

  
 80 

 
in the administration of the Obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e)(1) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are
or might be in conflict with the terms of the Subsidiary Guarantees and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (2) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability
hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (3) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims and (4) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Benefited Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or
any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentations, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of the Subsidiary Guarantees, notices of Default under the Notes or
any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantees or any agreement related thereto, and notices of any extension of credit to the Company and any right
to consent to any thereof; (g) to the extent permitted under applicable law, the benefits of any “One Action” rule and (h) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or
exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of the Subsidiary Guarantees. Except to the extent expressly provided herein, including Sections 8.02, 8.03 and 10.05, each Guarantor hereby covenants that its Subsidiary
Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture. 

If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Subsidiary Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full
force and effect. 
 Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect
of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the
maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02 for the purposes of this Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the
obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Section 6.02, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Guarantors for the purpose of this Subsidiary Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary
Guarantee. 
 SECTION 10.02. Limitation on Guarantor Liability. (a) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder,
hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that each Guarantor’s liability shall be
that amount from time to time equal to the aggregate liability of such Guarantor under the guarantee, but shall be limited to the lesser of 

  
 81 

 
(x) the aggregate amount of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture or (y) the amount, if any, which would not have (1) rendered the Guarantor
“insolvent” (as such term is defined in the Federal Bankruptcy Code and in the Debtor and Creditor Law of the State of New York) or (2) left it with unreasonably small capital at the time its guarantee with respect to the Notes was
entered into, after giving effect to the incurrence of existing Indebtedness immediately before such time; provided, however, it shall be a presumption in any lawsuit or proceeding in which a Guarantor is a party that the amount
guaranteed pursuant to the guarantee with respect to the Notes is the amount described in clause (x) above unless any creditor, or representative of creditors of the Guarantor, or debtor in possession or trustee in bankruptcy of the Guarantor,
otherwise proves in a lawsuit that the aggregate liability of the Guarantor is limited to the amount described in clause (y) above. 

(b) In making any determination as to the solvency or sufficiency of capital of a Guarantor in accordance with the proviso of
Section 10.02(a), the right of each Guarantor to contribution from other Guarantors and any other rights such Guarantor may have, contractual or otherwise, shall be taken into account. 

SECTION 10.03. Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantee. To evidence its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01,
each Guarantor hereby agrees that a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee in substantially the form included in Exhibit B attached hereto shall be endorsed by an Officer of such Guarantor on each Note authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and that this Indenture shall be executed on behalf of such Guarantor by its President or one of its Vice Presidents. 
 Each
Guarantor hereby agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in Section 10.01 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee. 

If an Officer whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Subsidiary Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee
authenticates the Note on which a Subsidiary Guarantee is endorsed, the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be valid nevertheless. 
 The delivery of
any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Subsidiary Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors. 

The Company hereby agrees that it shall cause each Person that becomes obligated to provide a Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to
Section 4.17 to execute a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, pursuant to which such Person provides the Guarantee set forth in this Article 10 and otherwise assumes the obligations and
accepts the rights of a Guarantor under this Indenture, in each case with the same effect and to the same extent as if such Person had been named herein as a Guarantor. The Company also hereby agrees to cause each such new Guarantor to evidence its
Guarantee by endorsing a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee on each Note as provided in this Section 10.03. 
 SECTION 10.04.
Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.05, no Guarantor may consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person whether or
not affiliated with such Guarantor unless: 

  
 82 

 (a) subject to Section 10.05, the Person formed by or surviving any such
consolidation or merger (if other than a Guarantor or the Company) unconditionally assumes all the obligations of such Guarantor, pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, under this Indenture
and any Subsidiary Guarantee on the terms set forth herein; and 
 (b) the Guarantor complies with the requirements of
Article 5 (to the extent applicable). 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by the
successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Subsidiary Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and
conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Guarantor, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause
to be signed any or all of the Subsidiary Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee. All the Subsidiary Guarantees so issued shall in
all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Subsidiary Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Subsidiary Guarantees had been issued at the
date of the execution hereof. 
 Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing
contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or another Guarantor, or shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety to the Company or another Guarantor. 
 SECTION 10.05. Releases Following Merger, Consolidation or Sale of
Assets, Etc. In the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Guarantor, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor, in
each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transactions) a Subsidiary of the Company, then such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all of the
Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) shall be released and relieved of any obligations under its
Subsidiary Guarantee; provided that the net proceeds of such sale or other disposition shall be applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.12. If a Restricted Subsidiary
is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.16, such Subsidiary shall be released and relieved of any obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an
Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale or other disposition was made by the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, including without limitation Section 4.12, the Trustee shall
execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of any Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee. 

  
 83 

 Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain
liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 10. 

ARTICLE 11 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 SECTION 11.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect,
as to all Notes issued hereunder, when: 
 (a) either: 

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

(2) all Notes issued hereunder that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by
reason of the sending of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable or redeemable within one year, and the Company has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the
benefit of the Holders, cash in Dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in Dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to
pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit or will occur as a result of the
deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the
Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; 
 (c) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it
under this Indenture; and 
 (d) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to apply the deposited
money toward the payment of the Notes issued hereunder at maturity or the Redemption Date, as the case may be. 
 In addition, the Company
must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an opinion of counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 

  
 84 

 SECTION 11.02. Deposited Cash and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other
Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to Section 11.03, all cash and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this
Section 11.02, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 11.01 in respect of the outstanding Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the
payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and
interest but such cash and securities need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 SECTION 11.03.
Repayment to Company. Any cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on its request or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder
shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such cash and securities, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall
thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall
Street Journal (national edition), notice that such cash and securities remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of
such cash and securities then remaining shall be repaid to the Company.

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

1. Interest. Centene Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal
amount of this Note at 4.75% per annum until maturity. The Company shall pay interest semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an
“Interest Payment Date”). Interest shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Notes (or one or more Predecessor Notes) or, if no interest has been paid, from November 9, 2016. The Company
shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the interest rate then in effect under the
Indenture and this Note; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods), from time to time at the same rate to
the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 2. Method of Payment. The
Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the January 1 or July 1 next preceding the Interest
Payment Date, even if such Notes are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes shall be payable as to
principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the Note
Register; provided, however, that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds shall be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium, if any, on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have
provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, shall act
as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture
shall govern and be controlling.

hereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges and redemptions. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the
transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a

incorporator or stockholder, member, manager or partner of the Company or of any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any Obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Indenture, any supplemental indenture, the Notes, the
Subsidiary Guarantees, if any, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such Obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.
