Form of Performance Unit Grant Agreement

	TO:	  	«FULL_NAME»
		
	FROM:	  	C. Dowd Ritter

	RE:	  	Performance Unit Grant

  
 I am pleased to inform you as a key
member of AmSouth’s Senior Management Team that AmSouth Bancorporation has granted you Performance Units under the 1996 Long Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan). Your Performance Units give you a potential cash payout based on
AmSouth’s performance for the period «PERIOD» as follows: 
  

							
	 Performance Measure

	 	         Threshold        

	 	         Target        

	 	         Maximum        

	 ROE
	 	«EPSThreshold»	 	«ROETarget»	 	«ROEMaximum»
	 EPS Growth
	 	«EPSThreshold»	 	«EPSTarget»	 	«EPSMaximum»
	 Total
	 	«TotalThreshold»	 	«TotalTarget»	 	«TotalMaximum»

  
 This grant is being made under the
Plan in conjunction with your stock option grant, and therefore has the same effective date of «DATE». Actual payouts will be determined based on AmSouth’s performance against its peer banks (traditional U.S. banks with assets from
$20B - $125B) over a three year Performance Period from «DATE» through «DATE». The performance measures will be Return on Equity (ROE) and Earnings Per Share (EPS) Growth. ROE will be the average for the Performance Period,
and EPS Growth will be calculated as the average of the annual growth rates over the same Performance Period. Each performance measure will be weighted equally, and therefore, will determine one half of the potential cash payout. [INSERT SPECIFIC
TARGETS FOR PERFORMANCE FACTORS.] The Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors will determine AmSouth’s performance against goals and the amount of any payouts, and their determinations will be final.

 «DATE» 
  
 Payouts based on performance results will be made as soon as administratively feasible following «DATE». If any of the following events occur during the
Performance Period, payouts will be determined as noted: 
  

	 	(a)	Death, Disability or Retirement: If any of these events occur during the first two years of the Performance Period, at the end of the year in which the event occurs, a
prorated payout (1/3 or 2/3) will be calculated based on AmSouth’s performance against its peers through that full one or two year period. If the event occurs in the third year of the Performance Period, a full payout will be determined at the
end of the third year as normal. 

  

	 	(b)	Change in Control: A calculation of a full-term payout amount will be made as described above based on AmSouth’s performance for the period ending at the end of the year
prior to any Change in Control as defined in the Plan (rather than for the three-year period) and that amount will be paid unless the calculated payout is below the full-term Target Payout level, in which case the full-term Target Payout amount will
be paid. If a Change in Control occurs during the first year of performance, a Target Payout will be made. There would be no proration of payouts (that is, no reduction in payouts due solely to the fact that less than the full three-year term had
elapsed prior to the Change in Control) in the event of a payout following a Change in Control. 

  

	 	(c)	Other Termination of Employment: In the case of termination of employment for any other reasons, payouts will be forfeited. 

  
 References to defined terms in the Plan are capitalized in this memorandum. The prospectus
for the Plan and the Plan document itself are obtainable by logging on to the Executive Web Site via your office personal computer at [insert web site]. If you do not have access to a personal computer and would like a copy of the plan
document and prospectus, please contact Special Compensation at [insert phone number]. Please refer to this information for a complete explanation of how the Plan works. In addition, please retain a copy of this memorandum so that you will have a
record of the specific terms of your grant. This memorandum is your Award Agreement under the Plan. 
  
 I congratulate you on your award. Thank you for your service to AmSouth!

	(Signature)Form of Stock Option Grant Agreement

 Exhibit 10.2 
  
 PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL 
  

			
	TO:	  	«FULL_NAME»
		
	FROM:	  	C. Dowd Ritter
		
	DATE:	  	«DATE»
		
	RE:	  	Stock Option Grant

  
 I am pleased to inform you that
AmSouth Bancorporation, on «DATE», granted you options to purchase a total of              shares of its common stock at the option price of
$             per share, which was the Fair Market Value of each share of common stock on the date of grant. The value of these options will be determined by the amount of any
appreciation in the price of stock in the future, which in turn is dependent upon our ability to continue performing well as a company. 
  
 Your option was granted to you under the 1996 Long Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan). References to defined terms in the Plan are capitalized in this
memorandum. The prospectus for the Plan and the Plan document itself are obtainable by logging on to the Executive Web Site via your office personal computer at [insert web site]. If you do not have access to a personal computer and/or the
Executive Web Site and would like a copy of the plan document and prospectus, please contact Special Compensation at [insert phone number]. Please refer to this information for a complete explanation of how the Plan works. In addition, please retain
a copy of this memorandum so that you will have a record of the specific terms of your grant. This memorandum is your Award Agreement under the Plan. 
  
 Your options may consist of both “incentive stock options” which qualify for certain favorable tax consequences for you, as well as “nonqualified stock
options” which do not qualify for those tax consequences. For a description of the tax consequences to you, please refer to the prospectus for the Plan. One important difference between incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options is
that upon the exercise of a nonqualified option you are automatically deemed to incur taxable income at ordinary income tax rates. Please consult your tax advisor to determine how these differences affect you. 
  
 The type and vesting schedule for your options is set forth in the chart below: 

 

					
	 Date

	  	 Number of Incentive Option
 Shares Vesting and Becoming
 Available for
Exercise

	  	 Number of Nonqualified Option
 Shares Vesting and Becoming
 Available for Exercise

 Page 2 
 «DATE» 
  
 The last day on which you can exercise any of these options is «DATE». The period of time from «DATE» to «DATE» is known as the Option
Period. Your options will fully vest and become immediately exercisable upon (i) your death, (ii) your employment with AmSouth ceasing because of Disability, (iii) your Retirement or (iv) a Change in Control. The amount of time you have to exercise
your vested options after these and certain other events is set forth in Section 6.9 of the Plan. If you cease to be employed by AmSouth for any other reason, any unvested options will be forfeited as of the date of your termination of employment,
notwithstanding that under the terms of the Plan as noted above; you may have additional time after ceasing employment in which to exercise any other options that have previously vested. 
  
 You may exercise your option in whole or part by submitting a completed stock option exercise form also obtainable via the Executive Web
Site or by calling Special Compensation at [insert phone number]. You may pay the option price due at exercise (i) in cash or by check, (ii) by tendering previously owned unrestricted shares of AmSouth Bancorporation common stock having an aggregate
fair market value at the time of exercise equal to the total option price if you have held such shares for at least six months, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii). You may also make cashless exercises (a simultaneous exercise and sale).
(However, your ability to make cashless exercises may be affected by the federal securities laws. For example, because a cashless exercise involves a sale of AmSouth securities on your behalf, such a transaction would not be permissible if at the
time of the transaction you were in possession of undisclosed, material information concerning AmSouth. Please consult with the Law Department if you have any questions concerning your ability under the securities laws to make a cashless exercise at
any time.) Upon exercise of the Option, you may elect to satisfy any federal tax withholding requirements in whole or in part by having shares withheld that you would otherwise receive, to the extent and in the manner allowed by the Plan.

  
 I congratulate you on your award. Thank you for your service to AmSouth!

agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuers may change any
Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Issuers fail to appoint or maintain another entity as Registrar or
Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

default by the Issuers in making any such payment. While any such default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. The Issuers at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to
the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon payment over to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than an Issuer or a Subsidiary) shall have no further liability for the money. If an Issuer or a Subsidiary acts as
Paying Agent, it shall segregate and hold in a separate trust funds for the benefit of the Holders all money held by it as Paying Agent. Upon any bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings relating to the Issuers, the Trustee shall serve as Paying
Agent for the Notes.

 (A) such exchange or transfer is effected pursuant to an Exchange Offer in accordance with a Registration Rights Agreement and the holder
of the beneficial interest to be transferred, in the case of an exchange, or the transferee, in the case of a transfer, makes any and all certifications in the applicable Letter of Transmittal or is deemed to have made such certifications if
delivery is made through the Applicable Procedures as may be required by a Registration Rights Agreement;

	(i)	General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

 (ii) No service charge shall be made to a holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any
registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge
payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.6, 3.9, 4.10, 4.15 and 9.5 hereof). 
  
 (iii) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part,
except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. 
  
 (iv) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or Definitive Notes shall be the valid obligations of the 

  

 36 

 
Issuers, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such
registration of transfer or exchange. 
  
 (v) The
Issuers shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.2 hereof and ending
at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part or (c) to register the
transfer of or to exchange a Note between a record date and the next succeeding interest payment date. 
  
 (vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuers may deem and treat
the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuers shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.

	 	2.7	Replacement Notes.  

  
 If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuers and the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Note, the Issuers shall issue, and, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. If required by the Trustee or the Issuers, an indemnity bond must be
supplied by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuers to protect the Issuers, the Trustee, any Agent and any Authenticating Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuers and the
Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Note. 
  
 Every replacement Note issued in accordance with this Section 2.7 is an additional obligation of the Issuers and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued
hereunder. 
  

	 	2.8	Outstanding Notes.  

  
 The Notes outstanding at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation,
those reductions in the interest in a Global Note effected by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions hereof, and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Except as set forth in Section 2.9 hereof, a Note does not cease to be
outstanding because the Issuers or an Affiliate of the Issuers holds the Note; however, Notes held by the Issuers or a Subsidiary of the Issuers shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of Section 3.7(b) hereof. 
  
 If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof, it ceases to be
outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
  
 If the principal amount of any Note is considered paid under Section 4.1 hereof, it ceases to be outstanding and interest on it ceases to accrue.

  

 37 

 If the Paying Agent (other than an Issuer, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of any thereof) segregates and
holds in trust, on a redemption date or other maturity date, money sufficient to pay all principal, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or
maturing, as the case may be, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 
  

	 	2.9	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
Issuers or any Guarantor or by any Affiliate of the Issuers or any Guarantor shall be deemed not to be outstanding, except that for the purposes 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 actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. 
  

	 	2.10	Temporary Notes.  

  
 In the event that Definitive Notes are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuers may
prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form, and shall carry all rights, of Definitive Notes but may have variations that the Issuers
consider appropriate for temporary Notes and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. 
  
 Without unreasonable delay, the Issuers shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon
surrender of the temporary Notes at any office or agency maintained by the Issuers for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuers shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Notes representing an equal principal amount of Notes. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Notes shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Notes. 
  

	 	2.11	Cancellation.  

  
 The Issuers 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 and destroy all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation in accordance with
customary practices (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act) and, upon request, deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Issuers unless the Issuers direct the Trustee to deliver canceled Notes to the Issuers. The
Issuers may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
  

	 	2.12	Defaulted Interest.  

  
 If the Issuers default in a payment of interest on the Notes, they shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful,
interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent Special Record Date (as defined below), in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.1 hereof. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note, the proposed record date of the proposed payment (the “Special Record Date”) and the date of the proposed payment (the “Special Payment
Date”). The Issuers shall fix or cause to be fixed each such Special Record Date and Special Payment Date, provided that no such Special Record Date shall be less than 10 days prior to the related Special Payment 

  

 38 

 
Date for such defaulted interest. At least 15 days before the Special Record Date, the Issuers (or, upon the written request of the Issuers, the Trustee in
the name and at the expense of the Issuers) shall mail or cause to be mailed to Holders a notice that states the Special Record Date, the related Special Payment Date and the amount of such interest to be paid. 
  

	 	2.13	CUSIP or Other Similar Numbers.  

  
 The Issuers in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or other similar numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee
shall use “CUSIP,” “ISIN” or other similar numbers in notices of redemption or offers to purchase as a convenience to Holders, provided, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness
of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or 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. 
  
 In the event that the Issuers shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate any Additional Notes pursuant to this Indenture, the Issuers shall use their best efforts to obtain the same CUSIP number for such
Additional Notes as is printed on the Notes outstanding at such time; provided, however, that if any series of Additional Notes is determined, pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel, to be a different class of security than the Notes
outstanding at such time for federal income tax purposes, the Issuers may obtain a CUSIP number for such series of Additional Notes that is different from the CUSIP number printed on the Notes then outstanding. 
  

	 	2.14	Issuance of Additional Notes. 

  
 The Issuers shall be entitled, subject to their compliance with Section 4.9, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture which shall have identical
terms as the Initial Notes issued on the Issue Date or the Exchange Notes, other than with respect to the date of issuance and issue price, first payment of interest and rights under a related Registration Rights Agreement, if any. 
  
 With respect to any Additional Notes, each Issuer shall set forth in a
resolution of the Board of Directors and an Officers’ Certificate, a copy of each which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 
  
 (a) the aggregate principal amount at maturity of such Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture;

  
 (b) the issue price, the issue date and the
CUSIP number and corresponding ISIN of such Additional Notes; and 
  
 (c) whether such Additional Notes shall be transfer restricted notes or shall be issued in the form of Exchange Notes. 
  

	 	2.15	Computation of Interest. 

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

 ARTICLE III 
  
 REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT 
  

	 	3.1	Notices to Trustee.  

  
 If the Issuers elect to redeem Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 3.7 hereof, they shall furnish the notice to the Depositary
and furnish to the Trustee, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth (i) the clause of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the redemption date,
(iii) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and (iv) the redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount). 
  

	 	3.2	Selection of Notes to be Redeemed.  

  
 If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed or purchased among the Holders of the
Notes in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, if the Notes are not so listed, on a pro rata basis; provided that no Notes of $1,000 or less shall be
redeemed in part. 
  
 The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Issuers 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 $1,000 or whole multiples
of $1,000; 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 a 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. 
  

	 	3.3	Notice of Redemption.  

  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 3.9 hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuers shall mail or cause to
be mailed, by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in
connection with a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
  
 The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 
  
 (a) the redemption date; 
  
 (b) the redemption price; 
  
 (c) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed
and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion 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; 
  

 40 

 (f) that, unless the Issuers default in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes
called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
  
 (g) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
  
 (h) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in
such notice or printed on the Notes. 
  
 At the Issuers’
request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Issuers’ name and at their expense; provided, however, that the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date, an Officers’
Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 
  

	 	3.4	Effect of Notice of Redemption.  

  
 Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the
redemption date at the redemption price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional. 
  

	 	3.5	Deposit of Redemption Price.  

  
 One Business Day prior to the redemption date, the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of and accrued interest and Additional Interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall promptly return to the Issuers any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuers in
excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed. 
  
 If the Issuers comply 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 redemption. If a Note is redeemed on or after an interest record date but on or prior to the related interest payment date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was
registered at the close of business on such record date and no additional interest or Additional Interest, if any, will be payable to the Holder whose Note was redeemed. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender for
redemption because of the failure of the Issuers 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 4.1 hereof. 
  

	 	3.6	Notes Redeemed in Part.  

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

	 	3.7	Optional Redemption.  

  
 (a) Except as set forth in clause (b) of this Section 3.7, the Issuers shall not have the option to redeem the Notes pursuant to this Section 3.7 prior to
January 15, 2009. Thereafter, the Issuers shall have the option to redeem the Notes at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages
of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the 

  

 41 

 
applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on January 15 of the years indicated below: 
  

				
	 Year

	  	Redemption Price

	 
	 2009
	  	104.250	%
	 2010
	  	102.125	%
	 2011 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

  
 (b) Notwithstanding
the provisions of clause (a) of this Section 3.7, at any time prior to January 15, 2008, the Issuers may, on any one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture at a redemption price
equal to 108.500% of the principal amount thereof on the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of any Equity Offerings; provided that (1)
at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture remains outstanding immediately after each occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Issuers and their Subsidiaries); and (2) each such redemption
shall occur within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering. 
  
 (c) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1 through 3.6 hereof. 
  

	 	3.8	Mandatory Redemption.  

  
 The Issuers shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes. 
  

	 	3.9	Offer to Purchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.  

  
 In the event that, pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, the Issuers shall be required to commence an Asset Sale Offer, they
shall follow the procedures specified below. 
  
 The Asset Sale
Offer shall remain open for a period of 20 Business Days following its commencement and no longer, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after
the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Issuers shall purchase the principal amount of Notes required to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof (the “Offer Amount”) or, if less
than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer. Payment for any Notes so purchased shall be made in the same manner as interest payments are made. 
  
 If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before
the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes
pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. 
  
 Upon the commencement of an
Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers shall send, by first class mail, a written notice to the Trustee and to each of the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender
Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, shall state: 
  
 (a) that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3.9 and Section 4.10 hereof and the
length of time the Asset Sale Offer shall remain open; 
  

 42 

 (b) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date; 
  
 (c) that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment shall
continue to accrete or accrue interest; 
  
 (d)
that, unless the Issuers default in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrete or accrue interest after the Purchase Date; 
  
 (e) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may only elect to have
all of such Note purchased and may not elect to have only a portion of such Note purchased; 
  
 (f) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer 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 Issuers, a depositary, if appointed by the Issuers, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at
least three days before the Purchase Date; 
  
 (g) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuers, the depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or
letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased; 
  
 (h) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes
surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Issuers shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Issuers so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or
integral multiples thereof, shall be purchased); and 
  
 (i) that Holders whose Notes were purchased only 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). 
  
 On or before the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful,
accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Notes tendered, and shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Issuers in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.9. The Issuers, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case
may be, shall promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Issuers for purchase,
and the Issuers shall promptly issue a new Note, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Authentication Order from the Issuers shall authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of
the Note surrendered. Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Issuers to the Holder thereof. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results of the Asset Sale Offer on the Purchase Date. 
  
 Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3.9, any purchase
pursuant to this Section 3.9 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.1 through 3.6 hereof.

to any Holder who shall have given written directions to such effect and reasonably satisfactory on or prior to the applicable record date. All other payments on Notes shall be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within

 The Issuers may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such
purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuers of their obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan,
the City of New York for such purposes. The Issuers 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.

 (b) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on

provided that the same is accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to the Parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Issuers and their
Restricted Subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis, on the other hand. 
  
 In addition, following the consummation of the Exchange Offer contemplated by a Registration Rights Agreement, notwithstanding that the Issuers may not be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the
Issuers will file a copy of all such information and reports referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above with the SEC, unless such filing is not permitted by the SEC, for public availability within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and

 (c) 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 Issuers’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
  

	 	4.4	Compliance Certificate.  

  
 (a) The Issuers and each Guarantor (to the extent that such Guarantor is so required under the TIA) shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the
end of each fiscal year, an Officers’ Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to
determining whether the Issuers 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 Issuers have
kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and are not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of

 45 

 
Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuers are taking or propose to take with respect thereto) and that

Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
  

	 	4.5	Taxes.  

  
 The Issuers shall pay or discharge, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to pay or discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, all material

their obligations under the Notes or this Indenture. 
  

	 	4.6	Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  

  
 Each of the Issuers and the Guarantors 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 Issuers and each
Guarantor (to the extent that they may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenant that they 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 had been enacted. 
  

	 	4.7	Restricted Payments.  

  
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 
  
 (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or
distribution 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 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 (a) payable in Equity Interests (other
than Disqualified Stock) of the Company or (b) to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company); 
  
 (ii) 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 Issuers or any direct or indirect parent of the Company or other Affiliate of the Company (other than such Equity Interests owned by the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor);

  
 (iii) make any payment on or with respect to,
or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness to the Issuers or to a Subsidiary Guarantor) that is expressly subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee, except a payment of interest
or principal at Stated Maturity; or 
  
 (iv) make
any Restricted Investment 
  

 46 

 (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above being collectively referred to as
“Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: 
  
 (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and 
  
 (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 applicable 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 the first paragraph of the covenant described below under Section 4.9 hereof; and 
  
 (c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Company and its Restricted

 (i) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company and
its Restricted Subsidiaries for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing after the Issue Date 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% of such deficit); plus 
  
 (ii) 100% of the fair market value of the Qualified Proceeds (determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company as evidenced by a certificate filed with the Trustee, except that in the event the value of any non-cash consideration shall be $15.0 million or more, the value shall be as determined based upon an opinion or appraisal
issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing) received by the Company since the Issue Date as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified
Stock) of the Company (excluding any net proceeds from an Equity Offering or capital contribution to the extent used to redeem Notes in accordance with the optional redemption provisions of the Notes) or from the issue or sale of Disqualified Stock
or debt securities of the Company that have been converted into such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or convertible debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of the Company or an employee stock ownership plan, option
plan or similar trust to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan or similar trust is financed by loans from or guaranteed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or prior to the
date the Restricted Payment occurs); plus 
  
 (iii) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the Issue Date is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of
disposition, if any); plus 
  
 (iv) any dividends
(the fair market value of property other than cash shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company as evidenced by a certificate filed with the Trustee, except that in the event the value of any non-cash consideration
shall be $15.0 million or more, the value shall be as determined based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing) received by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary after the
Issue Date from an Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company, to the extent that such dividends 

  

 47 

 
were not otherwise included in Consolidated Net Income of the Company for such period; plus 
  
 (v) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the
Issue Date, (x) if as a result of such redesignation the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of the Company on a pro forma basis is lower than such ratio immediately prior thereto, then the lesser of (A) the fair market value of the Company’s
Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation and (B) such fair market value as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (y) otherwise, the fair market value of the
Company’s Investment in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation; provided, further that any increase in the amount of Restricted Payments permitted to be incurred as a result of application of subparagraphs (iii), (iv) or
(v) above related to returns of capital, dividends or redesignation of any Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall be reduced by the difference between (A) the fair market value of any equipment (as determined by sales by the Company of comparable equipment
to unaffiliated third parties) transferred to such Unrestricted Subsidiary in reliance on subparagraph (xii) of Section 4.11 hereof and (B) the value received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from such Unrestricted Subsidiary with respect
to such equipment transfer. 
  
 The foregoing provisions shall not
prohibit: 
  
 (i) the payment of any dividend
within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at said date of declaration such payment would have complied with the provisions of this Indenture; 
  
 (ii) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any Equity Interests of the Company or Indebtedness of the
Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of, other Equity Interests of
the Company (other than any Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition shall be excluded from clause (ii) of
the preceding paragraph; 
  
 (iii) the
defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of Permitted Refinancing
Indebtedness; 
  
 (iv) the payment of any
dividend or distribution by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to the Holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis; 
  
 (v) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (A) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or
retirement for value of any Equity Interests of the Parent, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company held by any member of the Company’s (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’) management pursuant to any management
agreement, stock option agreement or similar agreement or (B) distributions, loans, dividends or advances to any Parent Entity for the purpose of repurchasing or otherwise acquiring any Parent Entity’s Equity Interests, Equity Interests of the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (including any options, warrants or other rights in respect thereof) held by any member of such entities’ management; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased,
redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not exceed $7.5 million in the aggregate since the Issue Date (and shall be increased by the amount of any net cash proceeds to the Company from (x) sales of Equity Interests of any Parent Entity
to management employees subsequent to 

  

 48 

 
the Issue Date and (y) any “key-man” life insurance policies which are used to make such redemptions or repurchases); 
  
 (vi) payments to, or distributions, loans, dividends or
advances to any Parent Entity for the purpose of, making payments to Holders of Equity Interests of the Company, any Parent Entity or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company in lieu of issuance of fractional shares of such Equity Interests, not to
exceed $100,000 in the aggregate; 
  
 (vii)
payments, distributions, loans, dividends or advances to any Parent Entity in order to permit such Parent Entity to pay its required and ordinary operating expenses (including, without limitation, directors’ fees, indemnification obligations,

Company’s Subsidiaries; 
  
 (viii)
distributions to any Parent Entity to fund the required tax obligations of such Parent Entity or its members related to income generated by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and taxable to such members; 
  
 (ix) repurchases of Capital Stock deemed to occur upon the
exercise of stock options if such Capital Stock represents a portion of the exercise price thereof; 
  
 (x) any payments made in connection with the consummation of the Transactions; 
  
 (xi) so long as (a) no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing and (b) the Leverage Ratio for the Company on the date on which such dividend is paid would have been less than 5.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis, the payment of dividends on the Company’s common equity
interests (or dividends, distributions or advances to a Parent Entity to allow a Parent Entity to pay dividends on such Parent Entity’s common equity interests) following the first Public Equity Offering after the Issue Date of, whichever is
earlier, (i) in the case of the first public offering of the Company’s common equity interests, up to 6% per annum of the net cash proceeds received by the Company in such public offering or (ii) in the case of the first Public Equity Offering
of a Parent Entity’s common equity interests, up to 6% per annum of the amount contributed by such Parent Entity to the Company from the net cash proceeds received by such Parent Entity in such public offering; and 
  
 (xii) if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $10.0 million since the Issue Date. 
  

In addition, any dividend which is declared but not paid shall not be included in the calculation of Restricted Payments under clause (c), and any
dividend which is declared and paid shall be included only once in the calculation of Restricted Payments under clause (c). 
  
 The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary (other than ALC) if such designation would
not cause a Default. For purposes of making such determination, all outstanding Investments by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid in cash) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments
at the time of such designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of this covenant. All such outstanding Investments will be deemed to constitute Investments in an amount equal to the fair market
value of such Investments at the time of such designation. Such designation will only be permitted if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at such time and if such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary. 
  

 49 

 The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair market value on the date of the
Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any non-cash Restricted Payment
shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company as evidenced by a certificate delivered to the Trustee, such determination to be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking
firm of national standing if such fair market value exceeds $15.0 million. Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment under the first paragraph of this Section 4.7, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate
stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this Section 4.7 were computed, together with a copy of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by this Indenture. 

 

	 	4.8	Dividend and other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries.  

  
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or
otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
  
 (i) (a) pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (1) on its Capital Stock or (2)
with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or (b) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
  
 (ii) make loans or advances to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or 
  
 (iii) transfer any of its properties or assets to the
Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 However, the foregoing restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 
  
 (a) agreements governing Existing Indebtedness as in effect on the Issue Date; 
  
 (b) the Senior Credit Facility as in effect as of the Issue
Date, and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof, provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements,
refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in the Senior
Credit Facility as in effect on the Issue Date; 
  
 (c) this Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees; 
  
 (d) applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order; 
  
 (e) any agreement or other 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 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 by the terms of this Indenture to be incurred;

  

 50 

 (f) customary non-assignment provisions in leases, licenses or contracts entered into in
the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (g) purchase
money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions of the nature described in clause (iii) above on the property so acquired; 
  
 (h) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of assets or Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary
permitted under this Indenture that restricts the sale of assets, distributions or loans by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition; 
  

(i) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness are, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 
  
 (j) secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred
pursuant to Section 4.12 hereof that limits the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness; 
  
 (k) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements and other similar
agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (1) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (m) any Purchase Money Note, or other Indebtedness or other contractual requirements of any Securitization
Entity in connection with a Qualified Securitization Transaction; provided that such restrictions apply only to such Securitization Entity; 
  
 (n) other Indebtedness of a ALC, a Subsidiary Guarantor or a Foreign Subsidiary permitted to be incurred subsequent to the Issue Date
pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described in Section 4.9 hereof; provided that any such restrictions are ordinary and customary with respect to the type of Indebtedness or preferred stock being incurred or issued (under the
relevant circumstances); and 
  
 (o) any
amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (a) through (n) above; provided that such amendments,
modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, no more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment
restrictions than those contained in the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification. restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing. 
  

	 	4.9	Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.  

  
 The Issuers shall not, and shall not permit any of their 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 that the Issuers and the Subsidiary
Guarantors shall not issue any Disqualified Stock and shall not permit any of their non-Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Subsidiary Guarantors to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that either Issuer or any Subsidiary
Guarantor may incur 

  

 51 

 
Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company’s most recently ended
four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock 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 Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

  
 The provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 4.9
shall not apply to the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 
  
 (i) the incurrence by the Company (and the guarantee thereof by the Subsidiary Guarantors) of Indebtedness and letters of credit under one
or more Senior Credit Facilities; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Indebtedness (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries thereunder) outstanding under all Senior Credit Facilities after giving effect to such incurrence does not exceed an amount equal to the greater of (x) $250.0 million less the aggregate amount of all repayments as a result of Asset
Sales of any term Indebtedness and all commitment reductions as a result of Asset Sales of any revolving indebtedness, in each case, under one or more Senior Credit Facilities pursuant to clause (1) of the second paragraph of Section 4.10 hereof and
(y) the Company’s Borrowing Base; 
  
 (ii)
the incurrence by the Issuers and the Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the Notes (other than Additional Notes) and the related Subsidiary Guarantees and the Exchange Notes and the related Subsidiary Guarantees to be issued in
exchange therefor pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement; 
  
 (iii) the incurrence by a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary and is not a Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount at any one time outstanding that does not exceed (x) $3.0 million plus (y) the Borrowing Base
of such Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that none of the Company or any other such Restricted Subsidiary shall be obligated, directly or indirectly, to pay principal, premium, interest or other amounts thereon or in respect thereof
(including by way of net worth requirements, equity keepwells, etc.); 
  
 (iv) the incurrence by the Company and its Subsidiaries of other Indebtedness outstanding on the Issue Date for so long as such Indebtedness remains outstanding; 
  
 (v) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Indebtedness (including Capitalized Lease Obligations) to finance the purchase, lease or improvement of property (real or personal) or equipment (whether through the direct purchase of assets or the Capital Stock of any Person owning
such assets) in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed the greater of (x) $10.0 million and (y) 7.5% of Total Assets at the time of any incurrence thereof (which amount may, but need not, be incurred in whole or in part under any
Senior Credit Facilities); 
  
 (vi) the
incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, letters of credit in
respect of workers’ compensation claims or self-insurance, or other indebtedness with respect to reimbursement type obligations regarding workers’ compensation claims; 
  
 (vii) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from
agreements of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company 

  

 52 

 
providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn out or other similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the
disposition of any business, assets or 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 Restricted Subsidiary for the purpose of financing
such acquisition; 
  
 (viii) the incurrence by
the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations in respect of performance bonds, bankers’ acceptances, workers’ compensation claims, surety or appeal bonds, payment obligations in connection with self-insurance or similar
obligations, completion or performance guarantees or standby letters of credit issued for the purpose of supporting such obligations and bank overdrafts (and letters of credit in respect thereof), in each case issued, or relating to liabilities
incurred, in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (ix) 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 refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany
Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph hereof or clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) of this paragraph or any Indebtedness issued to so refund, refinance or replace such Indebtedness; 
  
 (x) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that (A) 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 thereof, (B) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof or (C) the designation of a Restricted
Subsidiary which holds such Indebtedness as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (x);

  
 (xi) the incurrence by the Company or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred in the normal course of business and not for speculative purposes used for fixing or hedging currency or interest rate risk with respect to any floating rate Indebtedness that is
permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be outstanding; provided, however, that in the case of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging interest rate risks with respect to Indebtedness, the notional
principal amount of any such Hedging Obligation shall not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness to which such Hedging Obligation relates; 
  
 (xii) (A) the guarantee by any Issuer or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors of Indebtedness that was permitted to be incurred by another
provision of this covenant, and (B) Indebtedness of the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor arising by reason of any Lien granted by or applicable to the Issuers or any Subsidiary Guarantor that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of
this Section 4.9; 
  
 (xiii) the incurrence by
the Company’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Non-Recourse Debt; provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of
Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that was not permitted by this clause (xiii); 
  
 (xiv) the incurrence by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of Standard Securitization Undertakings and Limited Originator Recourse
and the incurrence by any Securitization Entity of Indebtedness in a Qualified Securitization Transaction that is Non-Recourse 

  

 53 

 
Debt with respect to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except for Standard Securitization Undertakings and Limited Originator Recourse); and

  
 (xv) the incurrence by any Issuer or any
Subsidiary Guarantor of additional Indebtedness and/or the issuance of Disqualified Stock in an aggregate principal amount or aggregate liquidation value, as applicable (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, together with all
other Indebtedness and Disqualified Stock incurred pursuant to this clause (xv) that is at the time outstanding, not to exceed $30.0 million. 
  
 No Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor may incur any Indebtedness if the proceeds are used to refinance Indebtedness of any Issuer.

  
 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.9:

  
 (1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness
meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xv) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, classify
or later reclassify (in whole or in part) such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 4.9; 
  
 (2) accrual of interest, accretion or amortization of original issue discount and the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form
of additional Indebtedness with the same or less onerous terms will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as
accrued; and 
  
 (3) for the purposes of
determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based
on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the earlier of the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such
Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-dominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in
effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S dollar-dominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being
refinanced. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 4.9, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company may incur pursuant to this Section 4.9 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any
Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such refinancing
Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 
  

 54 

	 	4.10	Asset Sales.  

  
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: 
  
 (1) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case
may be, receives consideration at least equal to the fair market value (evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the assets or Equity Interests issued
or sold or otherwise disposed of (such fair market value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale); and 
  
 (2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in
the form of cash or Cash Equivalents, provided that the amount of: 
  
 (x) any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto), of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent
liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets; provided that the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is released from any
further liability pursuant to a written agreement; 
  
 (y) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are within 60 days of the receipt thereof converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash
(to the extent of the cash received); and 
  
 (z)
property received as consideration for such Asset Sale that would otherwise constitute a permitted application of Net Proceeds (or other cash in such amount) under clause (2) of the next succeeding paragraph, 
  
 shall be deemed, in each case, to be cash for purposes of this provision. 
  
 Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the
Company may apply such Net Proceeds, at its option: 
  
 (1) to repay, prepay, repurchase or otherwise retire Senior Debt and, in the case of any Senior Debt under any revolving credit facility, effect a corresponding commitment reduction under such credit facility; 
  
 (2) to acquire a controlling interest in a Permitted
Business, the making of a capital expenditure on an asset used or useful in a Permitted Business or the acquisition of other Additional Assets; or 
  
 (3) a combination of prepayment and investment permitted by the forgoing clauses (1) and (2). 
  
 Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce
revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Indenture. 
  
 Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph will be deemed to constitute “Excess
Proceeds.” No later than the 361st day after the Asset Sale (or, at the Issuers’ option, such earlier date), if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Issuers will make an offer (an “Asset Sale
Offer”) to all Holders of Notes and all Holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds
of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal
amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest (or its equivalent with respect to 

  

 55 

 
any such pari passu Indebtedness), if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of
an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds
the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds will be allocated by the Issuers to the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness on a pro rata basis (based upon the respective principal amounts (or accreted value, if applicable) of the
Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer) and the portion of each Note to be purchased will thereafter be determined by the Trustee on a pro rata basis among the Holders of such Notes with appropriate
adjustments such that the Notes may only be purchased in integral multiples of $1,000. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 
  
 The Issuers shall 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 Issuers shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached their obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such
conflict. 
  

	 	4.11	Transactions With Affiliates.  

  
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer
or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any
Affiliate of either Issuer (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless: 
  
 (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction 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 
  
 (ii) the Company delivers to the Trustee (a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $3.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (i) above and that such
Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company; and (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate
consideration in excess of $10.0 million, a written opinion as to the fairness to the Holders of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an independent accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national
standing. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following items
shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions: 
  
 (i) any employment agreement entered into by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (ii) transactions exclusively between or among the Company and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries provided such transactions have not
otherwise been prohibited by this Indenture; 
  
 (iii) transactions effected as part of a Qualified Securitization Transaction; 
  

 56 

 (iv) Restricted Payments and Permitted Investments that are permitted by the provisions
of this Indenture; 
  
 (v) reasonable fees and
compensation paid to and indemnity provided on behalf of, officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Company, the Parent or any Subsidiary as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company or senior management;

  
 (vi) the payment of consulting and advisory
fees and related expenses to the Principals made pursuant to any financial advisory, financing, underwriting or placement agreement or in respect of other investment banking activities, including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions
or divestitures, in each case, which are (a) reasonably related to the services performed and (b) approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company; 
  
 (vii) any agreement as in effect on the Issue Date or any
amendment thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to any amendment thereto) and any replacement agreement thereto so long as any such amendment or replacement agreement is not, taken as a whole, more disadvantageous to
the Holders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date; 
  
 (viii) payments or loans to employees (other than executive officers and directors) or consultants which are approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company in good faith; 
  
 (ix)
the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, any stockholders agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which
it is a party as of the Issue Date and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of obligations under, any
future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the Issue Date shall only be permitted by this clause (ix) to the extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement, taken as a whole, are
not otherwise more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect than such agreement in existence on the Issue Date; 
  
 (x) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venture partners or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in
the ordinary course of business (including, without limitation, pursuant to joint venture agreements) and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Indenture which are fair to the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the good faith
determination of the Board of Directors of the Company or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party; 
  
 (xi) in the case of foreign joint ventures, transfers of
equipment for sale outside of North America in exchange for value not less than the Company’s cost of producing such equipment; 
  
 (xii) the pledge of Equity Interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries to support the Indebtedness thereof; 
  
 (xiii) issuances, sales and grants of Equity Interests
(other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates of any Issuer; and 
  
 (xiv) the Transactions. 
  

 57 

	 	4.12	Liens.  

  
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or
suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless: 
  
 (i) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness that is expressly subordinated or junior in right of payment
to the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee are secured on a senior basis to the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien; and 
  
 (ii) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness that is
equal in right of payment with the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Notes or such Subsidiary Guarantee are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a
Lien. 
  

	 	4.13	Business Activities.  

  
 The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as
would not be material to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
  
 ALC will not own any operating assets or other properties or conduct any business other than to serve as an Issuer and obligor on the Notes (and activities incidental thereto (including the incurrence of obligations
under other Indebtedness incurred by the Company)). 
  

	 	4.14	Corporate Existence.  

  
 Subject to Article 5 hereof, the Issuers shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) their limited
liability company or corporate existence, and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of their Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to
time) of the Issuers or any such Subsidiary and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Issuers shall not be required to preserve any such right,
license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of any of their Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
business of the Issuers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 
  

	 	4.15	Offer to Repurchase upon Change of Control.  

  
 Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuers to make an offer to repurchase all or any
part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described in this Section 4.15 (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within ten days following any Change of Control, the Issuers will mail a
notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from
the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required by this Indenture and described in such notice. 
  

 58 

 The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under-the Exchange Act and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions
of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict. 
  
 On the Change of
Control Payment Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful: 
  
 (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 
  
 (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered; and

  
 (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes
so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Issuers. 
  
 The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly
authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. Prior to complying with the provisions of this Section 4.15, but in any event within 90 days following a Change of Control, the Issuers shall either repay all outstanding Senior Debt or
obtain the requisite consents, if any, under all agreements governing outstanding Senior Debt to permit the repurchase of Notes required by this Section 4.15. The Issuers shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as
soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. 
  
 If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest payment record date and on or before the related interest payment date, any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, will be paid on the Change of Control
Payment Date to the Holder in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no other interest or Additional Interest, if any, will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

  
 The Change of Control provisions described above will be
applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, this Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders of the Notes to require that the
Issuers repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction. 
  
 The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the
manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control
Offer. 
  

	 	4.16	No Senior Subordinated Debt.  

  
 (i) The Issuers shall not, directly or indirectly, incur any Indebtedness that is expressly subordinate in right of payment to any Senior
Debt of the Issuers and expressly senior in any respect in right of payment to the Notes; and 
  

 59 

 (ii) no Subsidiary Guarantor shall incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of
payment to its Senior Debt and senior in any respect in right of payment to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guarantee. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Indebtedness that is unsecured or secured by a junior Lien is not deemed to be subordinate to secured Indebtedness merely
because it is unsecured or secured by a junior Lien, and Indebtedness that is not guaranteed by a particular Person is not deemed to be subordinate to Indebtedness that is so guaranteed merely because it is not so guaranteed. 
  

	 	4.17	Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness.  

  
 The Company shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary that is not ALC or a Subsidiary Guarantor, directly or indirectly, to
guarantee or pledge any assets to secure the payment of any other Indebtedness of any Issuer unless such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to this Indenture providing for the guarantee of the payment
of the Notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which Subsidiary Guarantee shall be senior to or pari passu with such Restricted Subsidiary’s guarantee of or pledge to secure such other Indebtedness, unless such other Indebtedness is Senior
Debt, in which case the Subsidiary Guarantee may be subordinated to the guarantee of such Senior Debt to the same extent as the Notes are subordinated to such Senior Debt. 
  

	 	4.18	Payments for Consent.  

  
 Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee
or otherwise, to any Holder of any Notes 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 or is paid to all Holders of the
Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE V  
  
 SUCCESSORS 
  

	 	5.1	Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets.  

  
 Neither Issuer may, directly or indirectly, consolidate or merge with or into another Person, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise
dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions, to another Person unless: 
  
 (i) either: (a) such Issuer is the surviving entity or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other
than such Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is (x) a corporation in the case of ALC or (y) a corporation, partnership or limited liability company in the case of the
Company, in each case, organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; 
  
 (ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or the Person to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made assumes all the obligations of such Issuer under any Registration Rights Agreement, the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to agreements in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee; 
  

 60 

 (iii) immediately prior thereto and immediately after such transaction no Default or
Event of Default exists; and 
  
 (iv) except in
the case of (a) the Initial Mergers, (b) a merger of any Issuer with or into a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company or (c) a merger entered into solely for the purpose of reincorporating any Issuer in another jurisdiction to realize tax benefits,
such Issuer or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made will, immediately after giving
pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, (x) be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in
the first paragraph of Section 4.9 hereof or (y) have a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio that would be equal to or greater than such ratio for the Company immediately prior to such transaction. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is permitted to reorganize as a
corporation in accordance with the procedures established in this Indenture, provided that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States confirming that such reorganization is not adverse to
Holders of the Notes (it being recognized that such reorganization shall not be deemed adverse to the Holders of the Notes solely because (i) of the accrual of deferred tax liabilities resulting from such organization or (ii) the successor or
surviving corporation (a) is subject to income tax as a corporate entity or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of the Code or any similar state or local law) and
certain other conditions are satisfied. 
  
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company and ALC are permitted to engage in the Initial Mergers on the Issue Date. 
  

	 	5.2	Successor Corporation Substituted.  

  
 (a) Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
of either Issuer in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into or with which either Issuer is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made
shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Company” or “ALC,” as the
case may be, shall refer instead to the successor entity and not to the Company or ALC, as the case may be), and may exercise every right and power of such Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named
as such Issuer herein; provided, however, that such Issuer shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest and other obligations on the Notes except in the case of a sale of all of such Issuer’s assets that
meets the requirements of Section 5.1 hereof. 
  
 (b) Each
Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, shall not, and the Issuers will not permit a Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not such Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving entity) another Person unless (i) the Person formed by
or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Subsidiary Guarantor or either Issuer) assumes all of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee, any Registration Rights Agreement and this Indenture
pursuant to agreements, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, and (ii) if such merger or consolidation is with a Person other than either Issuer or a Restricted Subsidiary, (x) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of
Default exists and (y)(i) the Company will, at the time of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in Section
4.9 hereof or (ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Company, such Subsidiary Guarantor or the Person formed by or 

  

 61 

 
surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) would be equal to or greater than such ratio for the Company immediately prior to such
transaction. 
  
 ARTICLE VI

 (f) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any
Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Entity) (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Entity)) whether such
Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, which default (i) is caused by a failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, or interest on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such
Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”) or (ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with
the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $10.0 million or more; 
  
 (g) the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Entity) fail to pay a final
judgment or final judgments for the payment of money which are entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction against the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Entity) and such judgment or judgments remain
undischarged for a period (during which execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days, provided that the aggregate of all such undischarged judgments exceeds $10 million (excluding amounts covered by insurance); 
  
 (h) the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or
any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity) pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: (i) commence a voluntary case, (ii) consent to the entry of an
order for relief against them in an involuntary case, (iii) consent to the appointment of a Custodian of them or for all or substantially all of their property, (iv) make a 

  

 62

in an involuntary case; (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity) or for all

Guarantor or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Guarantee. 
  

	 	6.2	Acceleration.  

  
 If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare
all the Notes to be due and payable (a) if there shall no longer be any Senior Credit Facilities that constitutes Senior Debt, immediately; or (b) if there shall be any Senior Credit Facilities that constitutes Senior Debt, upon the first to occur
of (i) the declaration of an acceleration of Indebtedness outstanding under any such Senior Credit Facilities and (ii) the fifth Business Day after receipt by the Issuers and the agents or trustees acting on behalf of any such Senior Credit
Facilities of such declaration given under this Indenture and, upon any such declaration, such principal amount (and premium, if any) and accrued interest, notwithstanding anything contained in this Indenture or the Notes to the contrary, will
become immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clauses (h) or (i) of Section 6.1 hereof occurs, with respect to the Issuers, any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company that constitutes a
Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders of the Notes may not enforce
this Indenture or the Notes except as provided in this Indenture. 
  
 The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with this Indenture, and the Issuers are required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement
specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
  

	 	6.3	Other Remedies.  

  
 If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal,
premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
  
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission
by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the
extent permitted by law. 
  

 63 

	 	6.4	Waiver of Past Defaults.  

  
 Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, or interest on,
the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase) (provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any
related payment default that resulted from such acceleration). Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

	 	6.5	Control By Majority.  

  
 Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising
any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the
rights of other Holders of Notes or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Trustee may take any other action consistent with this Indenture relating to any such direction. 
  

	 	6.6	Limitation on Suits.  

  
 A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if: 
  
 (a) the Holder of a Note gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; 

 
 (b) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of
the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; 
  
 (c) such Holder of a Note or Holders of Notes offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to the
Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
  
 (d) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of security and indemnity; and 
  
 (e) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do
not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. 
  
 A Holder of a Note may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 
  

	 	6.7	Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.  

  

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal, premium and Additional
Interest, if any, and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note (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. 
  

 64 

	 	6.8	Collection Suit by Trustee.  

  
 If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(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 Issuers for the whole amount of principal of, premium and Additional Interest, if any, and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest and such
further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, fees, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  

	 	6.9	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.  

  
 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, fees, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuers (or any other obligor upon
the Notes), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the compensation, fees, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under or in connection with this Indenture. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, fees, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under or in connection with this Indenture out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a perfected,
first priority Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization
or arrangement or otherwise, and such Lien in favor of a predecessor Trustee shall be senior to the Lien in favor of the current Trustee. 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. 

 

	 	6.10	Priorities.  

  
 If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order (subject to Article X): 
  
 First: to the Trustee (including any predecessor Trustee), its agents
and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.7 hereof, including payment of all compensation, fees, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 
  
 Second: to Holders of Notes for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes
for principal, premium and Additional Interest, 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 and Additional Interest, if any and interest,
respectively; and 
  
 Third: to the Issuers or to such
party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 
  
 The
Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Notes pursuant to this Section 6.10. 
  

 65 

	 	6.11	For Costs.  

  
 In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as a
Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant to
Section 6.7 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

 (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

 (f) 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 unless such Holders shall have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it
in compliance with such request or direction. 
  
 (g) No
permissive right of the Trustee to act hereunder shall be construed as a duty. 
  
 (h) Whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other
evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel, or both. 
  
 (i) Except with respect to Section 4.1 hereof, the Trustee shall have no duty to inquire as to the performance of the
Issuers’ covenants in Article 4 hereof. In addition, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge (including actual knowledge) of any Default or Event of Default except (i) any Event of Default occurring pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) and
6.1(b) hereof or (ii) any Default or 

  

 67 

 
Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notification or obtained actual knowledge. The Trustee may
withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding Notes is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest or Additional
Interest. 
  
 (j) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice
or knowledge (including actual knowledge) of any matter unless a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and such notice references the
Notes generally, the Issuers or this Indenture. 
  
 (k) In no
event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect, 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. 
  
 (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. 
  

	 	7.3	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 Issuers or any Affiliate of
the Issuers with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. However, in the event that the Trustee acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee or
resign. Any Agent may do the same with like rights and duties. The Trustee is also subject to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 hereof. 
  

	 	7.4	Trustees Disclaimer.  

  
 The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes, any Registration Rights
Agreement or the Offering Memorandum; it shall not be accountable for the Issuers’ use of the proceeds from the Notes or any money paid to the Issuers or upon the Issuers’ 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. 
  

	 	7.5	Notice of Defaults.  

  
 If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if the Trustee receives written notice thereof, the Trustee shall (at the expense of the
Issuers) mail to Holders of Notes a 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, Additional Interest, 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 of the Notes. 
  

 68 

	 	7.6	Reports by Trustee to Holders of the Notes.  

  
 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 (at
the expense of the Issuers) mail to the Holders of the Notes 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 transmit by mail all reports as required by TIA § 313(c). 
  
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to the Holders of Notes
shall be mailed to the Issuers and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Notes are listed in accordance with TIA § 313(d). The Issuers shall promptly notify the Trustee when the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or any
delisting thereof. 
  

	 	7.7	Compensation and Indemnity.  

  
 The Issuers and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation as agreed upon by the Trustee and the
Issuers, and, in the absence of any such agreement, 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 Issuers and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the
compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. 
  
 The Issuers and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses 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 Issuers and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.7) and defending itself against any claim (whether
asserted by the Issuers, the Guarantors or any Holder or any other person) or liability in connection with, relating to, or arising out of (i) the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, or in connection herewith, and (ii)
the validity, invalidity, adequacy or inadequacy of this Indenture, the Guarantees, the Notes, a Registration Rights Agreement and the Offering Memorandum, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense shall be determined to have been
caused by to its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee shall notify the Issuers and the Guarantors promptly of any claim for which it intends to seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuers and the Guarantors shall not
relieve the Issuers and the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuers and the Guarantors shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuers and the Guarantors
shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. The Issuers and the Guarantors need not pay for any settlement made without their consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 The obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors to the Trustee under this
Indenture shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and shall be secured by a Lien as provided in Section 6.9 hereof. 
  
 To secure the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ 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 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 6.1(h) or (i) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the 

  

 69 

 
fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  
 The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the
extent applicable. 
  

	 	7.8	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. 
  
 The Trustee may
resign in writing at any time and be discharged from the trust hereby created by so notifying the Issuers. The Holders of Notes of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and
the Issuers in writing. The Issuers may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee if: 
  
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10 hereof; 
  
 (b) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent or an order for relief is entered with respect to the
Trustee under any Bankruptcy Law; 
  
 (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 Issuers 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 Issuers. 
  
 If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring
Trustee, the Issuers, or the Holders of Notes of at least 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may petition at the expense of the Issuers any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
  
 If the Trustee, after receiving a written request by any Holder of a Note who
has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months, fails to comply with Section 7.10, such Holder of a Note may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor
Trustee. 
  
 A successor Trustee shall deliver a written
acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuers. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee
under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to Holders of the Notes. The retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges hereunder, promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor
Trustee, provided all sums owing to the Trustee hereunder have been paid and subject to the Lien provided for in Section 7.7 hereof. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.8, the Issuers’ obligations under
Section 7.7 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
  

 70 

	 	7.9	Successor Trustee by Merger, Etc.  

  
 If the Trustee or any Agent consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another
Person, the successor Person without any further act shall be the successor Trustee or Agent, as the case may be. 
  

	 	7.10	Eligibility; Disqualification.  

  
 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of
any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities and that together with its direct parent, if any, or in the case of a corporation
included in a bank holding company system, its related bank holding company, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. 
  
 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). 
  

	 	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. 
  

	 	7.12	Other Capacities.  

  
 All references in this Indenture to the Trustee shall be deemed to refer to the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee and in its capacities as any Agent, to
the extent acting in such capacities, and every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability or offering protection, immunity or indemnity to the Trustee shall be deemed to apply with the same force and effect to
the Trustee acting in its capacities as any Agent. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII

  
 LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

  

	 	8.1	Option to Effect Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.  

  
 The Issuers may, at their option and at any time, elect to have either Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof be applied to all
outstanding Notes and the Guarantees upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article 8. 
  

	 	8.2	Legal Defeasance and Discharge.  

  
 Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.2, the Issuers shall, subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Notes and to have each Guarantor’s obligations discharged with respect to its Guarantee on the date the
conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers 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 8.5 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all its other
obligations under such Notes and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the 

  

 71 

 
expense of the Issuers, 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 8.4 hereof, and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on such Notes when such payments are due, (b) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ obligations in
connection therewith; and (d) this Article 8. Subject to compliance with this Article 8, the Issuers may exercise their option under this Section 8.2 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 8.3 hereof. 
  

	 	8.3	Covenant Defeasance.  

  
 Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3, the Issuers and each Guarantor shall, subject to
the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, be released from its obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 4.16, 4.18 and 5.1 hereof with respect to the outstanding
Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver,
consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Notes
shall not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the outstanding Notes, the Issuers 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 6.1 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Company’s
exercise under Section 8.1 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.3 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.4 hereof, Sections 6.1(d) through 6.1(f) hereof shall not constitute Events of Default.

  

	 	8.4	Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance.  

  
 The following shall be the conditions to the application of either Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof to the outstanding Notes: 
  
 In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

  
 (a) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with
the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the outstanding Notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must
specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; 
  
 (b) in the case of an election under Section 8.2 hereof, the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (A) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since 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 

  

 72 

 
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; 
  
 (c) in the case of an election under Section 8.3 hereof, the
Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States 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 shall have occurred and
be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) or insofar as Sections 6.1(h) or 6.1(i) hereof are concerned, at any time in the period ending
on the 91st day after the date of deposit; 
  
 (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 Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries
are a party or by which the Issuers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries are bound; 
  
 (f) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (subject to customary qualifications and assumptions) to the
effect that on the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; 
  
 (g) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an
Officers’ Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the Holders of Notes over any other creditors of the Issuers or with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors
of the Issuers or others; 
  
 (h) the Issuers
shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with; and

  
 (i) the Trustee shall have received such
other documents, assurances and Opinion of Counsel as the Trustee shall have reasonably required. 
  

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

  
 Subject to Section 8.6 hereof, all money and non-callable Government
Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.5, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof 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 an Issuer acting as Paying Agent), 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 money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  
 The Issuers and the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or non-callable 

  

 73 

 
Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or
other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes. 
  
 Anything in this Article 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the request of the Issuers any money or non-callable Government Securities held by it
as provided in Section 8.4 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.4(a)
hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
  

	 	8.6	Repayment to Issuers.  

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

	 	8.7	Reinstatement.  

  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 8.2 or 8.3
hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be
revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted by such court or governmental authority to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.2
or 8.3 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if the Issuers make any payment of principal of, premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of their obligations, the Issuers
shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
  
 ARTICLE IX 
  
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER 
  

	 	9.1	Without Consent of Holders of Notes.  

  
 Notwithstanding Section 9.2 of this Indenture, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Guarantees or the
Notes without the consent of any Holder of a Note: 
  
 (a) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; 
  
 (b) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 
  

 74 

 (c) to provide for the assumption of the Issuers’ obligations to the Holders of the
Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuers’ assets; 
  
 (d) to add additional guarantees with respect to the Notes, including any new Note Guarantees; 
  
 (e) to make any change that would provide any additional
rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights hereunder of any such Holder; 
  
 (f) to provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Indenture; 
  
 (g) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of an
appointment of a successor trustee; 
  
 (h) to
comply with requirements of the SEC; 
  
 (i) to
evidence and provide for the release of the Company’s guarantee (if any) of ALC’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture; or 
  
 (j) to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA. 
  
 Upon the request of the Issuers accompanied by a resolution of their respective Board of Managers or Board of Directors, as
the case may be, authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.2 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuers in the execution of any amended or
supplemental Indenture authorized or permitted by the terms of this Indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such amended or
supplemental Indenture that affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
  

	 	9.2	With Consent of Holders of Notes.  

  
 Except as provided in Section 9.1 hereof and as provided below in this Section 9.2, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Indenture (including Sections 3.9, 4.10 and 4.15 hereof) and the Notes and the Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single
class (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for, or purchase of, the Notes). Section 2.8 hereof shall determine which Notes are considered to be “outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.2.

  
 Upon the request of the Issuers accompanied by a resolution
of their respective Board of Directors, as the case may be, authorizing the execution of any such amended or supplemental Indenture, and upon receipt by the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as
aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.2 hereof, the Trustee shall join with the Issuers in the execution of such amended or supplemental Indenture unless such amended or supplemental Indenture directly
affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental Indenture. 
  

 75 

 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under each of Section 9.1 and this
Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 
  
 After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section becomes effective, the Issuers shall mail to the Holders of Notes affected thereby a notice
briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuers to mail 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.
Subject to Sections 6.4 and 6.7 hereof, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuers with any provision of this Indenture
or the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 9.2 may not (with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
  
 (a) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

  
 (b) reduce the principal of (or premium on)
or change the Stated Maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than the provisions relating to the covenants described in Sections 4.10 and 4.15 hereof); 
  
 (c) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of
interest or Additional Interest on any Note; 
  
 (d) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest or Additional Interest 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); 
  
 (e) make any Note payable in currency other than that stated in the Notes; 
  
 (f) make any change in the provisions of this Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or impair the
rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of or premium on, if any, or interest or Additional Interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates thereof; 
  
 (g) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by one of the
covenants described in Sections 4.10 and 4.15); 
  
 (h) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Guarantee or this Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; or 
  

(i) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions. 
  
 In addition, any amendment to the provisions of Article X of this Indenture will require the consent of the Holders of at
least 75% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding if such amendment would adversely affect the rights of Holders of Notes (to be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel). 
  

	 	9.3	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. 
  

 76 

	 	9.4	Revocation and Effect of Consents.  

  
 Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and
every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may
revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and
thereafter binds every Holder. 
  

	 	9.5	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 Issuers in exchange for
all Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 
  
 Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver. 

 

	 	9.6	Trustee to Sign Amendments, Etc.  

  
 The Trustee shall sign any amended or supplemental Indenture authorized pursuant to this Article Nine if the amendment or supplement does not adversely
affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. The Issuers may not sign an amendment or supplemental Indenture until the Board of Directors of the Company approves it in writing. In executing any amended or supplemental
indenture, the Trustee shall be provided to it and (subject to Section 7.1 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.4 hereof, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. 
  
 ARTICLE X 
  
 SUBORDINATION 
  

	 	10.1	Agreement to Subordinate.  

  
 The Issuers agree, and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees, that the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is subordinated in right of payment, to the
extent and in the manner provided in this Article 10, to the prior payment in full, in cash, of all Senior Debt (whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed), and that the subordination is for the
benefit of the holders of Senior Debt. 
  

	 	10.2	Certain Definitions.  

  
 Certain defined terms used in this Article 10 are defined in Article I hereof. 
  

	 	10.3	Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.  

  
 Upon any distribution to creditors of the Issuers in a liquidation or dissolution of any Issuer or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency,
receivership or similar proceeding relating to such Issuer or its property, an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of such Issuer’s assets and liabilities, the Holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive payment
in full in cash of all 

  

 77 

 
Obligations due in respect of such Senior Debt (including interest after the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable
Senior Debt, whether or not such claim is allowed under applicable law) before Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to receive any payment with respect to the Notes, and until all Obligations with respect to Senior Debt are paid in full in cash,
any distribution to which the Holders of the Notes would be entitled shall be made to the Holders of Senior Debt (except that Holders of Notes may receive and retain Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any defeasance trust created
pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof). 
  

	 	10.4	Default on Designated Senior Debt.  

  
 The Issuers also may not make any Senior Subordinated Note Payment or any deposit pursuant to provisions described under Section 8.1 hereof (except in
Permitted Junior Securities or from the trust described under Section 8.1 hereof) if: 
  
 (i) a default in the payment of any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing
beyond any applicable grace period; or 
  
 (ii)
any other default occurs and is continuing with respect to any Designated Senior Debt that permits Holders of the Designated Senior Debt as to which such default relates to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of such default (a
“Payment Blockage Notice”) from a representative of the Holders of such Designated Senior Debt. 
  
 However, the Issuers may make payments with respect to the Notes if the Issuers and the Trustee receive written notice approving such payment from the
representative of the Designated Senior Debt with respect to which either of the events set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of the immediately preceding paragraph has occurred and is continuing. Payments on the Notes may and shall be resumed:

  
 (1) in the case of a payment default, upon
the date on which such default is cured or waived or has ceased to exist or such Designated Senior Debt has been discharged or repaid in full in cash; and 
  
 (2) in case of a nonpayment default, upon the earlier of (a) the date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived or has ceased to
exist, (b) 179 days after the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received or (c) the discharge or repayment in full in cash of such Designated Senior Debt, unless, in the case of (a) and (b) above, the maturity of any Designated
Senior Debt has been accelerated. 
  
 No new Payment Blockage
Notice may be delivered unless and until (x) 360 days have elapsed since the commencement of the effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice and (y) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional
Interest, if any, on the Notes that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a
subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 180 days. 
  

	 	10.5	Acceleration of Notes.  

  
 Issuers shall promptly notify Holders of Senior Debt if payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default. The Issuers may not pay the
Notes until five business days after such Holders of Designated Senior Debt receive notice of such acceleration and, after that five 

  

 78 

 
business day period, may pay the Notes only if the subordination provisions of this Indenture otherwise permit payment at that time. 
  

	 	10.6	When Distribution Must be Paid Over.  

  
 In the event that the Trustee or any Holder receives any payment of any Obligations with respect to the Notes (excluding any payment or distribution of
Permitted Junior Securities or from the trust described in Section 8.1) at a time when the Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, has actual knowledge that such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions in this Indenture, such payment
shall be held by the Trustee or such Holder, in trust for the benefit of, and will be paid over and delivered, upon written request, to the Holders of Senior Debt or their proper representative. 
  
 With respect to the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform
only such obligations on the part of the Trustee as are specifically set forth in this Article 10, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee
shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt, and shall not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders or the Company or any other Person money or assets to
which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 10, except if such payment is made as a result of the willful misconduct or negligence of the Trustee. 
  

	 	10.7	Notice by Issuers.  

  
 The Issuers shall promptly notify in writing the Trustee and the Paying Agent of any facts known to the Issuers that would cause a payment of any
Obligations with respect to the Notes to violate this Article 10, but failure to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of the Notes to the Senior Debt as provided in this Article 10. 
  

	 	10.8	Subrogation.  

  
 After all Senior Debt is paid in full and until the Notes are paid in full, Holders of Notes shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other
Indebtedness pari passu with the Notes) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of Notes have been applied to the payment of
Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Article 10 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders of Notes is not, as between the Issuers and Holders, a payment by the Issuers on the Notes. 
  

	 	10.9	Relative Rights.  

  
 This Article 10 defines the relative rights of Holders of Notes and holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Indenture shall: 
  
 (1) impair, as between the Issuers and Holders of Notes, the
obligation of the Issuers, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on the Notes in accordance with their terms; 
  
 (2) affect the relative rights of Holders of Notes and creditors of the Issuers other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior
Debt; or 
  
 (3) prevent the Trustee or any
Holder of Notes from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Debt to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders of Notes. 
  

 79 

 If the Issuers fail because of this Article 10 to pay principal of or interest on a Note on the due date,
the failure is still a Default or Event of Default. 
  

	 	10.10 	Subordination May Not be Impaired by Issuers or Guarantors.  

  
 No right of any holder of Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or the related
Guarantees shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Issuers, any Guarantor, any other obligor on the Notes or any Holder or by the failure of the Issuers, any Guarantor or any Holder to comply with this Indenture. 
  

	 	10.11 	Distribution or Notice to Representative.  

  
 Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their
Representative. 
  
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of
the Issuers referred to in this Article 10, the Trustee and the Holders of Notes shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating
trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of the
Issuers, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 10. 
  

	 	10.12 	Not to Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right to Accelerate.  

  
 The failure to make a payment in respect of the Notes, whether directly or pursuant to any Guarantee, by reason of any
provision in this Article 10 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default. Nothing in this Article 10 shall have any effect on the right of the Holders or the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Notes or
to make a claim for payment under any Guarantee. 
  

	 	10.13 	Rights of Trustee and Paying Agent.  

  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 10 or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the
existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment or distribution by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Paying Agent may continue to make payments on the Notes, unless the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust
Office at least five Business Days prior to the date of such payment written notice of facts that would cause the payment of any Obligations with respect to the Notes to violate this Article 10. Only the Issuers or a Representative may give the
notice. Nothing in this Article 10 shall impair the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof. 
  
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may hold Senior Debt with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the
same with like rights. 
  

	 	10.14 	Authorization to Effect Subordination.  

  
 Each Holder of Notes, by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on such Holder’s behalf to take such action as may
be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 10, and appoints the Trustee to act as such Holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or
proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 6.9 hereof at least 30 days before the 

  

 80 

 
expiration of the time to file such claim, the Representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the
Notes. 
  

	 	10.15 	Amendments.  

  
 The provisions of this Article 10 shall not be amended or modified without the written consent of the Holders of at least 75% in aggregate principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding if such amendment would adversely affect the rights of Holders of Notes. 
  

	 	10.16 	Trustee’s Compensation Not Prejudiced.  

  
 Nothing in this Article 10 shall apply to amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to other sections in this Indenture. 
  

	 	10.17 	Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent. 

  

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuers referred to in this Article X, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, and the
Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar
case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, Custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or the
Holders of Notes, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Issuers, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts
paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article. 
  

	 	10.18 	Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Debt. 

  
 The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if the Trustee shall
in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Notes or to the Issuers or to any other person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise. With respect to
the holders of Senior Debt, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants or obligations with respect to holders of Senior Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 GUARANTEE 
  

	 	11.1	Unconditional Guarantee.  

  
 Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its
successors and assigns that: the principal of, interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, subject to any applicable grace period, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and interest on
the overdue principal and interest on any overdue interest on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuers to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or under the Notes will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms
hereof and thereof; subject, however, to the limitations set forth in Section 11.3. 
  
 Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any 

  

 81 

 
action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment
against the Issuers, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. 
  
 Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of
insolvency or bankruptcy of an Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against an Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that the Parent Guarantee or the Guarantee, as the case may be, will not be discharged except
by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to an Issuer or any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar
official acting in relation to an Issuer or any Guarantor, any amount paid by an Issuer or any Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, the Parent Guarantee and each Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force
and effect. 
  
 Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between
each Guarantor, 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 Article 6 for the purpose of the Parent Guarantee and each 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 acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether
or not due and payable) shall become due and payable by each Guarantor for the purpose of the Parent Guarantee and each Guarantee. 
  

	 	11.2	Severability.  

  
 In case any provision of this Article 11 shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
  

	 	11.3	Limitation of Guarantor’s Liability.  

  
 Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof each Holder and the Trustee, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Parent
Guarantee and each Note Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar U.S.
Federal or state or other applicable law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under the Parent Guarantee and each Note Guarantee shall be limited to
the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of
such other Guarantor pursuant to Section 11.4, result in the obligations of such Guarantor not constituting such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
  

	 	11.4	Contribution. 

  
 In order to provide for just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree, inter se, that in the event any payment or
distribution is made by any Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under the Parent Guarantee or a Note Guarantee, as the case may be, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from all other Guarantors in a pro
rata amount, based on the net assets of each Guarantor (including the Funding Guarantor), determined in accordance with GAAP, subject to Section 11.3, for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by such Funding Guarantor in discharging the
Issuers’ obligations with respect to the Notes or any other Guarantor’s obligations under the Parent Guarantee or a Note Guarantee, as the case may be. 
  

 82 

	 	11.5	Subordination of Subrogation and Other Rights.  

  

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that any claim against an Issuer that arises from the payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s
obligations under its Guarantee or this Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, shall be subject and subordinate to, and no payment with respect to any such claim of such Guarantor shall be made before, the payment in
full in cash of all outstanding Notes in accordance with the provisions provided therefor in this Indenture. 
  

	 	11.6	Company Guarantee of ALC Obligations 

  
 The Company hereby guarantees, on a subordinated basis as set forth below, the payment and performance of ALC’s obligations to the Holders and the
Trustee under this Indenture and under the Notes. 
  
 The Company
hereby agrees, on a subordinated basis as set forth below, to reimburse ALC for any payment of any obligation under this Indenture or any payment made by ALC under the Notes. 
  
 Each of the Company and ALC and each Holder by accepting a Note agrees that (i) such guarantee and such reimbursement are
subordinated in right of payment, to the same extent and in the same manner as provided in Article X with respect to other Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes, to the prompt payment in full, in cash, of all Senior Debt (as more fully set forth in
Article X hereof) and (ii) any rights of the Company with respect to such guarantee and any rights of ALC with respect to such reimbursement are to be treated as claims against an Issuer that are subject to Section 11.5 hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE XII  
  
 SUBORDINATION OF GUARANTEE; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

  

	 	12.1	Guarantee Obligations Subordinated to Senior Debt.  

  
 The obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be subordinated in right of payment to the obligations of such
Guarantor under its Senior Debt in the same manner and to the same extent that the Notes are subordinated to Senior Debt of the Issuers. 
  

	 	12.2	Satisfaction and Discharge. 

  
 This Indenture shall be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes and Guarantees issued hereunder, except as to surviving rights
of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, when: 
  
 (a) either: 
  
 (i) all Notes that have
been previously authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has previously been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuers and is thereafter repaid to
the Issuers or discharged from the trust) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 
  
 (ii) all Notes that have not been previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (A) have become due and payable or (B) will become
due and payable at their maturity within one year or (C) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of a notice of redemption by the Trustee, 

  

 83 

 
and the Issuers or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the
Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not
previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes to the date of deposit, in the case of Notes that have become due and payable, or to the Stated Maturity
or redemption date, as the case may be; 
  
 (b) the Issuers or any
Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by it under this Indenture; 
  
 (c) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit or shall occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a
default under, any other instrument to which the Issuers are a party or by which the Issuers or any Guarantor is bound; and 
  
 (d) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under this Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes
at maturity or the redemption date, as the case may be. 
  
 In
addition, each of the Issuer’s must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent under this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been
satisfied. 
  
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture, the obligations of the Issuers to the Trustee under Section 7.7 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (C) of Clause (ii) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 12.3
shall survive such satisfaction and discharge. 
  

	 	12.3	Application of Trust Funds. 

  
 Subject to Section 12.4 hereof, all cash and non-callable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 12.2 hereof 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
Issuers 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 and Additional Interest, if any, but such cash and securities
need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
  

	 	12.4	Repayment to Company. 

  
 Any cash or non-callable Government Securities deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuers, in trust for the payment of
the principal of, premium, if any, or interest or Additional Interest, if any, on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, and premium, if any, or interest or Additional Interest, if any, has become due and payable shall
be paid to the Issuers on its request or (if then held by the Issuers) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder shall thereafter, as an unsecured creditor, look only to the Issuers 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 Issuers as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at
the expense of the Issuers cause to be published once, in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such 

  

 84 

 
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 will be repaid to the Issuers. 
  

	 	12.5	Reinstatement. 

  
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any United States dollars or non-callable Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.3, 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 Issuers’ and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes
shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.2 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 12.3 hereof; provided that, if
the Issuers makes any payment of principal of, premium on, if any, or interest or Additional Interest, if any, on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuers shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to
receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTES] 
  
 81⁄2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 
  
 Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise
indicated. 
  
 (1) Interest. [Alliance Laundry Systems
LLC], a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and [Alliance Laundry Corporation]3, a Delaware corporation (“ALC” and, together with the Company, the “Issuers”), promise to pay interest
on the principal amount of this Note at 81⁄2% per annum and shall pay Additional Interest, if any. The Issuers shall pay interest and Additional Interest, if any, semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each such year, commencing
July 15, 2005 or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no
interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding
Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be the first July 15 or January 15 to occur after the date of issuance, unless such July 15 or January 15 occurs within one calendar month of such date of issuance,
in which case the first Interest Payment Date shall be the second July 15 or January 15 to occur after the date of issuance. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
  
 (2) Method of Payment. The Issuers shall pay interest on the Notes
(except defaulted interest) and Additional Interest, if any, to the Persons in whose name(s) this Note is registered at the close of business on the July 1 or January 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date (each, a “Record
Date”), even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal,
premium, if any, and Additional Interest, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained for such purpose within the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Issuers, payment of interest and Additional Interest,
if any, may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that all payments of $1,000 or more principal, premium, if any, interest and Additional Interest, if any, with respect to Notes
the Holders of which have given wire transfer instructions to the Issuers at least ten business days prior to the applicable payment date will be required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the
Holders thereof. 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 Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture,
shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuers may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuers or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
  
 (4) Indenture. The Issuers issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated
as of January 27, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuers and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as

  

 3 

 
amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a
statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are obligations of the Issuers initially in the
aggregate principal amount of $150,000,000. 
  
 (5)
Subordination. The Notes are subordinated in right of payment, in the manner and to the extent set forth in the Indenture. Each Holder by his acceptance hereof agrees to be bound by such provisions and authorizes and expressly directs the
Trustee, on his behalf, to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided for in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for such purposes. 
  
 (6) Guarantees. This Note is guaranteed by the Persons, if any,
specified as Guarantors in the Indenture to the extent provided in the Indenture. The Guarantees are subordinated to the Senior Debt of the applicable Guarantor in the manner and to the extent provided in the Indenture. Each Holder by his acceptance
hereof agrees to be bound by such provisions and authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee, on his behalf, to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided for in the Indenture and appoints the
Trustee his attorney-in-fact for such purposes. 
  
 (7)
Optional Redemption. 
  
 (a) Except as set forth in clause
(b) of this Paragraph 7, the Issuers shall not have the option to redeem the Notes prior to January 15, 2009. Thereafter, the Issuers shall have the option to redeem the Notes, at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date, if
redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on January 15 of the years indicated below: 
  

				
	 Year

	  	Redemption Price

	 
	 2009
	  	104.250	%
	 2010
	  	102.125	%
	 2011 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

  
 If the redemption date
is on or after an interest payment record date and on or before the related interest payment date, the accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, will be paid to the Holder in whose name the Note is registered at the close of
business on such record date, and no additional interest or Additional Interest, if any, will be payable to Holders whose Notes will be subject to redemption by the Issuers. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) of this Paragraph 7, at any time prior to January 15, 2008, the Issuers
may, on any one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture at a redemption price equal to 108.500% of the principal amount thereof on the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of any Equity Offerings by the Issuers; provided that (1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued under this Indenture
remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Issuers and their Subsidiaries); and (2) each such redemption shall occur within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

  

 4 

 (8) Mandatory Redemption. 
  
 Except as set forth in paragraph 9 below, the Issuers shall not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund
payments with respect to the Notes. 
  
 (9) Repurchase at
Option of Holder. 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuers to make a Change of Control Offer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at an offer price in cash equal
to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase. Within ten days following any Change of Control, the Issuers will mail a notice to each Holder
describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice
is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. 
  
 (b) If the Issuers or a Restricted Subsidiary consummate any Asset Sales, when the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Issuers shall commence an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Notes and
all holders of such other Indebtedness of the Issuers that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets that
may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness, plus accrued and unpaid interest
and Additional Interest (or its equivalent with respect to any such pari passu Indebtedness), if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuers
may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered in such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the
Excess Proceeds will be allocated by the Issuers to the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness on a pro rata basis (based upon the respective principal amounts (or accreted value, if applicable) of the Notes and such other pari
passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer) and the portion of each Note to be purchased will thereafter be determined by the Trustee on a pro rata basis among the Holders of such Notes with appropriate adjustments such that the
Notes may only be purchased in integral multiples of $1,000. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase shall receive an Asset Sale
Offer from the Issuers prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Notes. 
  
 (10) Notice of Redemption. Except as otherwise specified in the
Indenture, notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed
in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) of Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered.
On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. 
  
 (11) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples
of $1,000 in excess thereof. 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 

  

 5 

 
and transfer documents and the Issuers may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuers 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 Issuers need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period
of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
  
 (12) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
  
 (13) Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions,
the Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class, and any existing default or compliance with
any provision of the Indenture, the Guarantees or the Notes or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a
single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes;
provide for the assumption of the Issuers’ obligations to Holders of Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuers’ assets; add additional guarantees with respect to the Notes; 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 the Indenture of any such Holder; provide for the issuance of Additional Notes in accordance with the
provisions set forth in the Indenture; evidence and provide for the acceptance of an appointment of a successor trustee; comply with requirements of the SEC; evidence and provide for the release of the Company’s guarantee (if any) of ALC’s
obligations under the Notes and the Indenture; or to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA. 
  
 (14) Events of Default. 
  
 Each of the following constitutes an “Event of Default”: (a) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Additional
Interest, if any, with respect to, the Notes, whether or not such payment is prohibited by the provisions of Article X of the Indenture; (b) default in payment when due of the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes, whether or not such
payment is prohibited by the provisions of Article X of the Indenture; (c) the Issuers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries fail to comply with any of the provisions of Sections 4.15 or 5.1 of the Indenture; (d) the Issuers or any of their
Restricted Subsidiaries fail for 30 days after written notice by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes to comply with the provisions of Sections 4.7, 4.9 or 4.10 of the Indenture; (e) the
Issuers or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries fail to comply with any of its other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes for 60 days after written notice to the Issuers by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes then outstanding; (f) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries
(other than a Securitization Entity) (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than a Securitization Entity)), whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, which
default (i) is caused by a failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, or interest on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”)
or (ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a
Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $10.0 million or 

  

 6 

 
more; (g) the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries fail to pay a final judgment or final judgments for the payment of money which are entered by a court or
courts of competent jurisdiction against the Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries and such judgment or judgments remain undischarged for a period (during which execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days, provided that the aggregate
of all such undischarged judgments exceeds $10 million (excluding amounts covered by insurance); (h) the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary
(other than a Securitization Entity) pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law: (i) commence a voluntary case, (ii) consent to the entry of an order for relief against them in an involuntary case, (iii) consent to the appointment of a
Custodian of them or for all or substantially all of their property, (iv) make a general assignment for the benefit of their creditors, or (v) generally are not paying their debts as they become due; (i) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an
order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (i) is for relief against the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization
Entity) in an involuntary case; (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity) or
for all or substantially all of the property of the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity); or (iii) orders
the liquidation of the Issuers or any of their Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity); and the order or decree remains unstayed and
in effect for 60 consecutive days; or (j) except as permitted by the Indenture, (i) the Parent Guarantee or any Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any
reason to be in full force and effect or (ii) any Guarantor or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Guarantee. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of
at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default specified in clauses (h) or (i) above occurs with respect to the
Issuers, any Subsidiary of the Company that constitutes a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary (other than a Securitization Entity), all outstanding Notes will become
due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may in
writing direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or
interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive
any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Issuers are required to deliver to the Trustee
annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuers are required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
  
 (15) Trustee Dealings with Issuers. The Trustee, in its individual or
any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuers or their Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuers or their Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 
  
 (16) No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director,
officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or member of the Issuers or the Guarantors, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture or for any claim based on, 

  

 7 

 
in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability as part
of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 
  
 (17)
Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent. 
  
 (18) Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (=
tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
  
 (19) Registration Rights Agreement. In addition to the rights provided to Holders of Notes under the Indenture,
Holders of Restricted Global Notes and Restricted Definitive Notes shall have all the rights set forth in a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of [
                     , 2         ] between the Issuers and the Initial Purchasers.

  
 (20) CUSIP, ISIN or Other Similar Numbers. Pursuant to
a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuers have caused CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers in
notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification
numbers placed thereon. 
  
 (21) Governing Law. This Note
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
